silwritersguild | B2MeM09:: Day Twenty-Three: Mercurial Monday!

Day Two Twenty-Three--Mercurial Monday!

For Mercurial Monday, we offer B2MeM participants the choice of two prompts. Participants may choose whichever they prefer. In addition, the second prompt may be used in place of any other prompt in the challenge!

You find an old dusty bottle and, when you pick it up, a genie pops out! What three wishes would you make and why?

Now, imagine that your character bumps into a genie (or a Middle-earth variation of it) and she offers to grant your character three wishes. What are the wishes and why would he and she wish for them?

Create an artwork, story or poem how your character mulls it over or goes about it.

What is the greatest sacrifice you can be asked to make? Think or write briefly about this.

Write a story, poem or create an artwork where the characters make their greatest sacrifice.

And the daily reminders ...

I am caught up with all of the links I have received and then some (including the one I just got in my inbox thirty seconds ago!), so all of the entries as of now (1044 EST) can be found here. Past prompts are here as well. If you'd like me to add your work to the list, please either leave a link (or post the work) in a comment on the relevant entry in this LJ community, or email me at DawnFelagund AT gmail DOT com.

Banners and icons for participants can be found here.

If you're just arriving and are wondering what the heck I'm talking about, the full project guidelines are on our homepage.
