Stine Writing and Miniatures

Simply 6 Minutes – Welcome to the Challenge: 02/11/2025

Welcome to the 6-minute challenge!

Today’s prompt is:

*****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. […] Lindsey had been unaware that her mama cat’s “time” would be the same as hers.Mama Cat was expecting her first litter of one. Mama Cat spent a lot of time sleeping on Linsey’s tummy while Lindsey awaited her own first baby. The two mothers gave birth on the same day. And during the first month, Lindsey noticed an unusual bond between Mama Cat’s son and her own. Their spirits recognized them as One during those last lazy days before birth because their heartbeats had ‘listened’ to each other in synchronized rhythm while the two expectant mothers lied together.Boy and his ‘brother’ cat would remain inseparable for many years.https://christinebialczak.com/2025/02/11/simply-6-minutes-welcome-to-the-challenge-02-11-2025/ […]
