Midst of the Storm-Contest

Hello again!

This contest is about storms. I ran across this altered picture and like it. You can use it for inspiration, or can write from your own muse. If it is a true event, please say so in your notes.

I want vivid imagery. I want to feel and hear the storm. If you want, especially about the picture, it can be humorous.

No vulgarity or bashing of any kind.


I hope this inspires you!

Have fun!

  • Final notes:
    Storms really terrify me! Being at the mercy of an unstoppable force is frightening. I think that is why I liked the picture, it had a touch of humor in it, and that softens the fear. Thank you all for your wonderful entries. I enjoyed them all.
