Comedy/buying a lottery ticket/copy

Y’all. I am not funny. Not even in the slightest. UGH.

I think to punish me for eschewing action in round 1, and focusing on the adventure aspect, I drew the same category again.  Sigh.  Group 15.  Action/Adventure.  Riding in an ambulance.  Whisper.

The prompts are so good that I sense a trap.  Lol.

Group 14: ghost story / wiping tears away / favor

Somewhat excited to get ghost story for the first time, but the action leaves little to the imagination. Time to get out the thinking cap.


Question...since when are the Round 2 groups larger than Round 1?  66 per group this time with only 8 moving on.  Good luck everyone!

Yeah, I can work with this.

I've gotten nothing but Ghost Story between this and Flash for the past three prompts, and it's my least favorite genre. Quite displeased.

I'm fine with my genre (romance) but the word (kind) and action (collecting a seashell) are leaving me in a state of mild panic. So thankful I'll have time to myself tomorrow afternoon so I can chip away at this.

During my readathon tonight, I said something like, "Omg, I hope I never get sci-fi."

Sci-fi, building a fence, spin

LOL

Best of luck everyone and have fun!

Group 18:  horror/ collecting rainwater/ path

I feel the exact same way!! Love the genre and can't wait to experiment but my action is so specific and might I say odd...

Guess we've got some thinking to do! Happy writing everyone! :)
