Welcome to the 6-minute challenge!

This is a picture of someone holding a really fat cat!
*****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 can’t see the photo either Christine. Are you using a different site source?

I must be finding images that say they are stock photos but maybe are not. I am going to use something different if I can figure it out.

I hope you can figure it out. Have you tried a new site or maybe try artificial intelligence. I create my own pics using WordPress’s Artificial Intelligence Feature. I just tell it what I want and most of the time it can come up with something and I know there are plenty of sites out there that offer free pictures. There’s Pixabay, Pexels to name a couple.

Yes, I am going through and double checking any that I have scheduled. I have found some random pictures but will remember to be more careful.
