#WQWWC – Writers Quote Wednesday Writing Challenge – Memories

Hey, EVERYBODY! It’s that time again! Time to join in the “Writers Quote Wednesday Writing Challenge,” co-sponsored with Ronovan Hester of Ronovan Writes, right here on silverthreading.com and myself, Silver Threading!
Please use #WQWWC on Twitter so we can retweet you and spread the inspiration.
Welcome! This is an open invitation to join in on our blogging event called the “Writers Quote Wednesday Writing Challenge!
Ronovan and I are really enjoying all the creativity that has been blossoming from this challenge. There has been fascinating science fiction stories, poetry, and even a song or two!
BUT WAIT!
If you like the OLD Writers Quote Wednesday where you selected a quote and talked about the author of the quote you CAN still do that. The quotes are a pathway to find inspiration in your writing. You can write whatever you would like as long as you include your quote with your piece. You can write poetry, music, share songs, write flash fiction…
This is your chance to highlight your favorite author’s quotes that give inspiration to you as a writer. Do you feel like your writing is getting stale? Are you looking for inspiration to keep writing? Then you have come to the right spot!
Each week we will include a theme for anyone who needs additional inspiration. You don’t have to follow our theme if you don’t want to. It is optional.
You have from this Wednesday until the following Tuesday to participate! Woo HOO!
In fact, Ronovan and I will alternate each week with a themed prompt post written on Silver Threading. This will give you a different perspective weekly to keep your inspiration flowing.
Make sure to join us. You never know what we will come up with!
Here is the link to last week’s post from Ronovan.
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR BLOGS TO FOLLOW… I have included the entries from last week with the theme of “BEAUTY” (Please click on their name to visit their blog to read their contribution)
From the Sticks to the Bricks & Back Again
Everybody did such a great job!
This is my week, and Ronovan will be back next week to share his theme with you. We thought it would be fun to split the brain power needed each week. All of you get hosts that are reasonably fresh and fun to play with each week, so join in!
THIS WEEK’S THEME IS “MEMORIES.”
So what do you do?
You select a quote that inspires you. Then, write a short piece of flash fiction or poetry to share with us all using the quote either in your story or as the title of your masterpiece. You can include photos, photo quotes, or anything else that helps to highlight your quote.
Either create your own sayings (because after all, we are all writer’s here) or use a quote from a famous author that you find gives you inspiration. Just make sure that credit is given to other’s work.
You can use Fotoflexer, Picmonkey, or Canva.com, or any other program that you wish to make your own images. Click the links to go to the programs.
Each Wednesday, we will post the prompt and all you have to do is take part! You have from that Wednesday until the following Tuesday night to share your creativity inspired by a quote. We will share your posts on social media for added exposure.
BOTTOM LINE: Have fun and be creative!
Magical Memories
(a Haibun and a Haiku)
When browsing through the memories swirling within your mind,
most people often find –
magic is the least understood of the fairy-tale arts.
Fear not! Look deep within your soul –
to remember a time
when enchantment explained the world,
first seen through the eyes of a child.
~*~
Fairies do belong –
In the magic of our hearts,
We run from the truth.
Colleen M. Chesebro
So come on! Join us and share your memories!
P. S. I am going to be doing some heavy duty editing the next few days. If I don’t answer you right away, don’t worry. I will find you. Hugs!! ❤
Great entries as always, Colleen 🙂
