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.
“Pickup trucks are _____.”
I’ll give you an example to get you started:
“Pickup trucks are cowboy Cadillacs.”
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!
And thanks to Dionne Kumpe, Matt Martoccio, Barney Coulter, Sherry Stilwell, Mark Bowden, Nick S, Jeff Green, Christine Ann Borra, Martin Vipond, Jared, Blane Cox, Eric, Rob Bazzett, Mark Westendorf, Linda Keser, Ken Matthiessen, Debbie, Joe Slyzelia and everyone else for your great additions to Wordplay Thursday #114 (read it here)!
