Welcome to the 6 minute challenge!
Today’s prompt is:
*****For any participants that do NOT like restrictions, please feel free to participate in any way you would like. It is great to read the contributions!****
- Set up a timer or sit near a clock so you can keep track of the six minutes you will be writing.
- You can either use one of the prompts (photo or written) or you can free-write.
- Get ready and write for 6 minutes, that is it! Can you write a complete story? Can you think of a new Sonnet? Can you write 400 words? 400? 500? There are no restrictions on what kind of writing you do, but you should try to be actively writing for six minutes.
- After you are done writing, include your word count and then post back to this page #Simply6Minutes or include your link in the comments section. Pingbacks are enabled.
- *Feel free to leave your work completely unedited. I believe it is good to see, especially for new writers, that even very seasoned writers don’t write a perfect first draft.*
- Have fun, challenge yourself if you’d like, read and respond to others’ posts.
Thank you for participating!

[…] Ricky the raccoon, in spite of having an imagination impaired mother who named him, was having a good run of scavenging. His favorite bistro was the garbage can at Vera’s house.She wasn’t only wasteful, she enjoyed high carb and fatty foods.But that menu had suddenly changed. It was Monday night, a time that raccoons everywhere loved. Garbage was piled highest before the Trash Day Tuesday.To his dismay, Vera had changed her eating habits! All her garbage contained were empty mail order DIET meal containers. No chicken skin, no potato rolls, and NO donuts!This wouldn’t do.He waited for daylight.And in perfect raccoon fashion, chattered his complaint as she walked to her car.“FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, where’s the good stuff! Have you no soul woman?!”Vera’s new lifestyle emboldened her in many ways. Unafraid of this obviously rabid animal, she called Animal Control from her car.Ricky escaped just before they arrived changing his preferred dining spot to Thursday nights at Dunkin’ Donuts.That’s when the local Weight Watcher’s Chapter gathered after their weekly meeting!(181 words) {A difficult challenge to wake up to. This took me closer to 10 minutes!}Simply 6 Minutes—Welcome To The Challenge: 02/23/2021 – Stine Writing (christinebialczak.com) […]
