When Life Gives You Lemons....(Round 2)

** Since everyone hasn't entered yet, and I have gotten a message asking for an extension, I pushed back the contest again....It will be judged promptly when it ends this time -- whether everyone enters or not **


....Just say 'f*ck the lemons' and bail.


Invite Only!

The second round is for fresh writes only. The picture above is your prompt. PLEASE don't just write about what you see, I want you to go deeper than that. Whatever emotions the picture evokes for you, run with it, and write from there. I know you all have a lot of talent otherwise you wouldn't have made it to the second round! Have fun everyone!

Here are the people who moved on to this round:
