B2MeM09:: Day Two: Mercurial Monday!
Mar. 1st, 2009 10:38 pmMondays are generally awful. So, to make our Mondays a little easier for B2MeM, we will offer two prompts on Monday. Choose whichever one you like best and, if you like them both, the second entry can be substituted for any other prompt during the month!
Project guidelines can be found on our homepage here. Banners and icons for B2MeM09 participants are available here. Previous prompts and links to responses can be found here--remember, it's never to late to write for a prompt!
| Think of the most dangerous situation you can face. Have you ever been in such serious danger? What is the greatest danger that you have experienced? Think or write briefly about your experiences (or lack of experiences!) with danger. Write a story, poem or create an artwork where the characters face a great danger or where characters reflect on their reaction to a great danger. |
| What is the most tedious, routine work that you have to do? Write down a few tedious or routine tasks that you're sometimes required to perform. How does doing routine work make you feel? Would you like to have somebody do it for you? Now write a story, poem or create an artwork where characters have to deal with tedious jobs. |

Date: 2009-03-27 04:41 am (UTC)Oddly enough, the subject of whether the nobility among the Elves of Valinor would have done their own housework was what inspired Angelica to create this particular prompt. It was under discussion on the email group a couple of months ago, and people had pretty strong views on both sides. Personally, I see it much the way you do. :)
Oh, and the idea of Feanor pushing around a broom by the wrong end? Too funny for words!
Did you really used to like chores? I've always disliked housework ... which probably explains why I'm sitting amid a pile of books, papers, and paints--all of which should have been put away days ago--at the dining room table writing this! :D
