Hello, hello :)! We meet again for another creative challenge. This week, I found one that I decided to include my nephew in. I found this challenge in what is becoming one of my favorite books, Caffeine For The Creative Mind: 250 Exercises For The Creative Mind. This creative exercise is called Where's This Going?
In this challenge you are to begin writing a story but just the introduction. Then you pass the paper to the other person ( it works even better if you get two or three people in on the action ;). ) Each person is to write two sentences. The person you pass the paper to then reads the last sentence and adds two more sentences. You take turns back and forth until you fill-up the entire page. The only rule is no leading or hinting at what the person should write after you pass the story to the next person.
My nephew and I had a lot of fun. We even decided to make the story rhyme, which made it a bit more challenging and fun simultaneously. We found it incredibly challenging not to say anything while the other was writing haha. We were bursting at the seams trying to contain ourselves.
This is so silly but here is what we came up with.
The White Knight By Charity and Lee
It was a beautiful night. The stars are shown bright. There was a white knight, reaching new heights. As he climbed to the summit he felt sick to his stomach. The raunchy feeling, made him look to the ceiling. He dropped to his knees; begging god, please!? The Lord said, "Put on a jacket or you will Freeze!" But the princess; fair of face, attacked him with a can of mace! The knight then looked at the woman with red in his eyes and said "Woman, you have met your demise!" The knight then rose to his feet; drawing his sword without missing a beat. He then shouted "Wench you don't know my keep, you don't know my streets. I'll kill you right now and not lose sleep. The princess pleaded for her life. The knight felt sorry and lowered his knife.
The End.
