I have been eagerly awaiting Sacha’s next prompt! I enjoy her various twists in her writing games that she challenges us to!
The challenge?
Get a timer, set it for 120 seconds and when and ONLY when you are ready to do the challenge, scroll to the very end of the post to see the one word prompt. Write hard and fast until your time is up.
Well, I opened the email for the post at work, and had to impatiently wait until now to actually reveal the prompt!
Then I obediently opened a word doc, set my timer and did the big reveal!
I shall give you my entry first, before the prompt word though!
Warpaint
Slowly she applied it, layer after layer.
The concealer and foundation, then the eyes.
Eyebrows painted on.
Cheekbones highlit and honed to perfection, and a pout to match.
Looking in the mirror, she admired her warpaint, an armour of sorts.
Enough to shield her from the battles she used to face, when people stared at her in horror…
The prompt word was
Armour.
And that was in 120 seconds, honest!!!!! (Or maybe 125…!)

Hugh’s photo challenge calls to me again…! Check it out here!
1. Take or choose a photo that you’ve taken which, for you, depicts Group.
2. Create a new post on your blog entitled “Hugh’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Week 22 – “Group”
3. Add the photo(s) you have taken to the post and tell us a little about what you are showing.
4. Create a *pingback to this post or leave a link to your post in the comments section below so that other participants can view the post.
I thought and thought… scrolled through numerous photos that I have taken, and couldn’t find something that spoke to me, then I found this one, an old school photo from my last year at school, just after GCSE’s had been taken… summer term, holidays about to start, and please, don’t laugh.. yes, that’s me in the front with the Librarian sash on, and Sue Pollard-esque glasses!
But back to the point, this group photo reminds me of wonderful times. I loved my school days, and these girls wer3e some very special people in my life. Some of us ended up at the same school from nursery until 6th form, so that was from 3-18 years old!
Here goes… remember, you promised not to laugh!

Yesterday I was tired, yet managed a haiku for the challenge…
Today I was coming home, in the broad daylight and saw the moon out, as you do, in the bright blue sky!
Well, it got my brain ticking, and apologies, the phone photo isn’t clear, but here is a picture and haiku inspired by that sight!
The Moon’s confused mind
Sent him out far too early…
It’s the sun’s time now!Ritu 2016
Then I felt a Tanka coming on…
Staring at the moon
Wondering where you are now
Do you think of me?
I miss your sunny disposition
Your smiles would brighten my day…Ritu 2016

Monday evening, and it’s time to tax my brain with Lovely Ron’s haiku prompt.
You’d think it was an easy prompt, the words Sun & Moon, but today, maybe it’s because my brain is overtired, I struggled… but came up with this.
