*****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!****

  1. Set up a timer or sit near a clock so you can keep track of the six minutes you will be writing.
  2. You can either use one of the prompts (photo or written) or you can free-write.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. *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.*
  6. Have fun, challenge yourself if you’d like, read and respond to others’ posts.

Thank you for participating!

  6. […] Leaving Ringo with Grandma was a last-minute desperate decision. He was a rambunctious adolescent pup of a mixed bloodline. But there was no doubt that Ringo had Basset Hound somewhere in that mix. His oversized dangly ears managed to get into more things than that whole puppy did!Grandma was a tidy freak to say the least, but she loved animals, and our family was all expected to attend the graduation. When we returned to gather up our ‘baby’ we anticipated complaints about his ears dragging water, food, and dirt all over Grandma’s place. What we found was Ringo sleeping by her feet with a grandma style remedy that we couldn’t have imagined AND we still use. Things have a way of working out for the better.https://christinebialczak.com/2023/06/06/simply-6-minutes-welcome-to-the-challenge-06-06-2023/ […]
