Chris,
This sounds like a neat challenge. No promises, if or when I'll be able to
spend the time to do it, but I do have it in mind now whenever I hear music.

Greetings fellow scribes--

Here in Connecticut we've already got 3 inches of snow, and the predictions
are between 18 and 36 inches by the time the blizzard is done. Since the
house is clean and I'm up to date on my work, I figured it would be a great
time for a new writing prompt. The last two in December and January didn't
get much participation, so let's try one that might be a little more fun
this month.

The prompt is simple. Take a line from a song, any song, and use it as the
first line in a poem, essay or short story. There are no other limitations,
so I hope to see some creative responses. I'd also like to encourage
everyone to give constructive feedback to those who post their work. I can't
reiterate the importance of critiquing other's work enough. It will help to
improve your own writing.

For those interested in even more of a challenge,pick a number between 1 and
10. Turn on your ipod, set it to shuffle, and go forward that number of
songs. You must use a line from the song you  land on.

Looking forward to your responses.

chris
