Basically, since I haven't really been writing as much as I'd like to, I decided to challenge myself (well...sorta).

I was inspired by the website OneWord.com to do a daily "One Word, One Minute" writing practice.

There will be a one word prompt a day and I'll write whatever comes to mind for one minute.

Feel free to do this as well :)

Finally got around to doing a few of these ^^"

1. Abandon:

SPOILERX


I sat on the corner, listening to the rain that mirrored my falling tears. I regretted telling you who I am....What I am. Disappointment was the last thing I saw in your eyes while you told me to leave, get out of your sight, my kind weren't allowed in your household. I packed my things and left.
And here I am, sitting here in the pouring rain, no where to go. I'm soaked and cold, my vision blurry, wishing you would come and find me. Just pretend I never said a word and go back to the time before your abandoned me.


Yeahhh I don't know where that came from. I could have wrote more buuuuut I couldn't think of anything else ^^"

This looks like a lot of fun.
Here's my first one. Based on a true story!

1. Abandon

SPOILERX

The farmhouse sat empty in a sea of weedy fields. Our boots sucked into the mud with each step. Mine came loose and we almost turned back but we were the same distance from the house as we were from the car and we were already all muddy. There was an old bike outside. Almost twenty years of rust colored it. A mattress reduced to just the metal frame and springs was propped up against the house.

We went inside. There was no one around for miles and the house had not be occupied since the floods drove away it's family. There was very little of the family personal effects left but the few things that had left behind were strangely poignant. Particularly the abandoned bunny. A little girl's toy.

I'd like to try this soon. I'm about to leave my house for the weekend but I will join anyone else who is doing this on Monday. Thank you for posting the wonderful idea. I found that the couple minute challenges were really helpful to me when i was writing my nano.
