Writing Meme
So I've decided that one of my new year's resolutions is to write more and to write better. So I'm stealing this from carmine_pink who took it from ryogrande ...
Day One: Write ten lines of dialogue between two characters who had drunken sex last night and are not talking about it. Ever.
Day Two: Write a scene in four sentences in which two characters bond over something that would seem trivial to a passerby.
Day Three: Write seven sentences from the perspective of a passerby witnessing Day Two's scene.
Day Four: Write a character's reaction to someone's love confession in one sentence.
Day Five: Write a scene in eight sentences in which someone's going through his/her version of "It's a Wonderful Life."
Day Six: Write a scene in six sentences in which a character is searching for someone in the last moments of the end of the world.
Day Seven: Write a breakup scene in three sentences without giving the reason for it or using dialogue.
Day Eight: Write two characters' second kiss in two sentences.
Day Nine: Ask flist for prompts. Write one sentence each for the first five prompts you receive.
Day Ten: Use these lyrics as a prompt: "There's only now/There's only here/Give in to love/Or live in fear" ("Another Day" from RENT) and write a story in nine sentences.
(Super Bonus Challenge: Use a different pairing/character each day.)
I don't know how I'll go with the super bonus challenge but at the very least I'll try not to make the pairings too repetitive. I'm willing to take sugestions for a movie to use instead of "It's a wonderful life" for day five, since I really know nothing about that movie.
So here goes day one - Tegoshi/Koyama
"Ohaiyo."
"Yeah, morning. Um, I should go..."
"Do you want to use the shower first?"
"No, I think I should just go. Congratulations on getting your own place."
"Wait, Koyama... thanks for keeping me company on my first night alone."
"Tonight's your fist night alone."
"Uh, yeah. Well thanks anyway..."
"Of course; It's not like I've ever been able to say no to you."
"I'm ... sorry?"
"It's fine, I just didn't .... Goodbye Tegoshi."
