Stine Writing and Miniatures

Simply 6 Minutes – Welcome to the Challenge: 02/13/2024

Welcome to the 6-minute challenge!

Today’s prompt is:

Top 10 Places You Don't Want To Visit | REALITYPOD

This is a picture of a real beach, but one unfortunately covered with trash.

*****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!

  9. […] The barge carrying the plastic waste destined to be incinerated had sunk when a rogue wave upended it. Now the coastal village was the recipient of waves of non-compostable refuse. Little did the well-meaning people of the deeper mainland know that their carefully sorted debris was not being recycled at all. The recycling program was in reality a “bait and switch program” for the purpose of making everyone “feel” useful and proactive. This facade of eco-friendliness had burst because of a natural event but those in the middle of it would be the only ones to realize it.Not one news organization reported the awful mishap, and these nameless inhabitants had the whole problem to deal with themselves. As with all government and media cover-ups, the mantra of those in charge remained, “Out of sight, out of mind.”.https://christinebialczak.com/2024/02/13/simply-6-minutes-welcome-to-the-challenge-02-13-2024/ […]
