Spring is a long time coming in my neck of the woods, and for me that means: games! Here's a writing game that I've always really enjoyed.
The rules are really simple, Write the first few sentences/paragraphs of an imaginative novel using the five words provided for you by the user above. All words/content should be Christian-friendly It can be a super simple classic fairy tale, or more complicated--the beginning of a saga yet to be written. Some enjoy spinning it out as long as possible, others prefer the challenge of fitting all the words into a short sentence or two. Ideally, you not only use all the words, but also make it really interesting and get the readers hooked! The fun is making all the words hang together, and making your words for the next user as difficult as you can. Here's a really simple example of how it works:
Feed
Dog
Wherever
Sudden
Bed
Mary had a sudden fear that Sam--wherever he was--had forgotten to feed the dog. She jumped out of bed to check.
Remember: this isn't a round-robin game. The next user does not have to be continuing the story, (though of course they are allowed to!) but rather they are beginning a story of their own. The beauty of the game is it's flexibility, so run with it!
Here's the words:
Petunia
Baking
Pompadour
Lipstick
Sigurd
One, Two, Three...Go!
