STORY STARTER

Write a story where the written word, in any form, is outlawed.

Rather than focusing on why text is outlawed, try to build a story that highlights one aspect of this world. Think about how often we see words written down, and how the world would look without them.

Pencils

That’s when they saw me With a pencil in my hand Because how dare I write with lead And not some fancy man made pen I want to draw with the pencil With the ability to erase But don’t you dare try to hide your face What is written can not be undone This was to protect the little ones They called me a criminal And say I commit crimes If only I had a little bit of time To draw with the pencil With the ability to erase I just wanted to remove my god forsaken face.
