Wordplay Thursday

Welcome to Wordplay Thursday!

Here’s a writing prompt for you.  It’s a simple fill-in-the-blank. You can use one word or several. Feel free to get as crazy, genre-appropriate, or as imaginative as you want. The point is to get the creative juices flowing. And it’s a good thing to dig deeper, so don’t stop at the first idea that hits you. Try coming up with at least five things.

“She blew that town like _____.”

I’ll give you an example to get you started:

“She blew that town like a 50 amp breaker.”

(Hat tip to Aaron Goodvin and Matt Cline, who had this line in their song, “Holly Would.”  The line was just too fun NOT to use!)

I’d love to hear what you come up with, so please share in the comments. Oh, and please keep your posts below an R-rating. It’s a family show, after all!

SHOUT OUT!

Thanks to Debbie74, Matt Martoccio, Jaredith Mize, Christopher Litz, Martin Vipond, Gary Snead, Roger Russell, Barney Coulter, Christian Baxter, Janet Goodman, Robert Sans, Debbie Convoy, Jeff Green, Ronnie Jones, Justin Heath, Amy (Appointed2), Taylor, Willa Thompson, and Ross Hemsworth for your great additions to Wordplay Thursday #50 (read it here)!
