Welcome to the 6-minute challenge!
Today’s prompt is:
LOTHAR KNOPP/GETTY IMAGES
Three grown men have fallen backwards as their folding chairs collapse.
*****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!

I don’t know. My laptop can be pretty temperamental and we have just spent three hours trying to get Skype installed on both machines only to be blocked and denied because we are on the wrong software and don’t have The App!!! Got it sorted by jogging round the houses, but geesh!

My computer keeps saying that it needs an update and that it is running out of disk space. Well, I can’t upload because there isn’t enough disk space and I can’t get rid of the apps I use to make this computer functional so it’s a no win situation.

[…] Three college buddies had commiserated about their lack of energy, inability to sleep, and their overall constant feeling of ‘doom and gloom’.Not recognizing that the barrage of online warnings of a Climate Crisis, the Me-Too obstacles to dating, and wild claims of fascism everywhere, may be a factor, they were prescribed on the advice of the college infirmary physician to take antidepression medication.Weeks later they returned to the infirmary to complain they felt not one bit better. The physician explained that they probably needed a new medication added to their treatment that would help the antidepressant work for them. Feeling desperate, they trusted the doctor. This is how they were found. Some say their worries were gone and therefore the treatment was a success.https://christinebialczak.com/2024/03/26/simply-6-minutes-welcome-to-the-challenge-03-26-2024/ […]
