Simply 6 Minutes – Welcome to the Challenge: 08/06/2024

Welcome to the 6-minute challenge!

Today’s prompt is:

This is a picture of a man with many hands holding his head.

*****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!

  14. […] Mortimer had found his true passion in the study of human psychology. It was only 2 weeks into his clinical practice when the nightmares started. He nightly dreamt that he was being smothered by multiple human hands!He realized right away his passion had somehow become a terrible curse.Of all the training he had received, none had dealt sufficiently with the practice of leaving his day job ‘at the office’.His patients’ troubles were consuming him. His mind couldn’t compartmentalize the harsh reality of constant mental illness and despair. Mortimer made the decision to quit his practice for his own mental health and opened a bakery.https://christinebialczak.com/2024/08/06/simply-6-minutes-welcome-to-the-challenge-08-06-2024/ […]
