Connected but Separate

We were connected. Our hearts were one. We loved with everything we had.


We should have been together forever.


Yet, it was not written like that. Everything we had, was not enough.


I gave him everything.


Every part of me. The raw, broken and ugly parts. The parts I hide from everyone else.


Why wasnā€™t it enough?


Why are we forced to separate. Why do they see our love and feel threatened ...

String

We tied to a string

Connected

Forever

Canā€™t break free

Canā€™t separate

Our love we have for each other

I am as gleeful to you still

As when the day we met

I will love you forever

Till itā€™s time to cut out string...

For Me.

You and I are one in the same,

Connected we are in the brain,

If you open your heart for me,

I will follow suit, gleeful Iā€™ll be.


You and I are meant to hold hands,

But weā€™re too busy holding demands,

If you separated life for me,

I will follow suit, gleeful Iā€™ll be.


(Idk what else to write- Iā€™m so under my daily goal lol)...

We used to all be connected by our hearts. We shared our storyā€™s and bonded over bad parents, our love for reading and everything in between.. but then I had to go and ruin everything. Now weā€™re all separated. Anna left after I yelled at her. Liam and Isa didnā€™t see the point in staying, the mission was over, we were done. But what hurt me the most was realizing how wron...

Burned

Everything happened in an instant. It was like one moment we were connected and then the next we werenā€™t. I canā€™t understand why he would even think that being separated from each other would be a good idea. Thatā€™s when she happened, oh how I despise her very existence. She just had to walk up to him with this gleeful, ugly ass smile and speak to him in such a way that made him cave. He was a weak...

The Acceptance Letter ļæ¼

Sammy Smalls was gleeful.


Sammy Smalls was absolutely ecstatic as she danced around her small room, an acceptance letter clutched protectively to her chest. Because it had happened. it had actually happened. she had gotten in to the school of her dreams. she had actually gotten into the school her late father had gone too.

Not Quite Natural

A severed man,

connected by a ghost

that he hid inside.


Separated from the rest,

he will watch them die.


His arms are his legs,

and his legs are his hands.

His hands hold his eyes,

on his pupils heā€™ll stand.


He sees them walk,

over him on right feet.

He sees them walk,

but he canā€™t bend his knees.


The man tries to talk,

but the people, they leave.


The man tries to live,

but his life s...

Twins Forever

Lucas and Lucy, or as they were otherwise known, the two Luā€™s, were connected from birth. Or at least, thatā€™s what everyone believed, because they were twins. But when they were separated during the war, they felt no difference in their lives whatsoever, apart from the immediate persecution they were having to suffer.

WRITING OBSTACLE

Choose any book, and rewrite the blurb so that it appears to be a different genre.

Word choice and emphasis on different aspects of a story can transform perceptions of a book entirely. Bonus points if your readers can guess which book it is!

WRITING OBSTACLE

Write a dual narrative from two characters on different sides of a disagreement.

A dual narrative depicts both characters' perspectives, although it does not have to be written in first person. The disagreement could be something personal, where they both hold different views, or perhaps something like a war where they have the same opinion but from different sides.

WRITING OBSTACLE

Write a difficult conversation between two characters without using any dialogue tags.

Dialogue tags describe the speech - 'he whispered', 'she murmered', 'they said' etc. Removing these indicators will encourage you to make the dialogue speak for itself, instead of relying on tags to describe and clarify the intent behind the words.
