"In the clouds it is hard to see the exact forms of things.
Everything seems vague; the imagination runs wild, seeing things
that are not there. Your words must lift people into the clouds,
where it is easy for them to lose their way."
The Art of Seduction
by Robert Greene
Do not write about clouds per se. It is a metaphor.
Do not describe the image....it is for inspiration.
Another judge will be added as soon as one volunteers that I trust.
Important: details, metaphor, and all forms of creative writing.
I would like to get lost in your words, so help me lose my way.
It closes soon. Don't try to seduce me, it is too obvious.
Please welcome truembrace as a co-judge.

Love clouds and the quote you have here, Zayra - lovely

Ah... this is inspiring. I hope it doesn't close early, cause I've got something in the works for it. It takes me a while to finish anything...

Thank you Mary. I am often inspired by the old glamor of the early film stars. This one is a silent film star. Something about that...elusive mystery all wrapped up in beauty. Kimmie just agreed to help judge it.
