Den of Hostility

The title of the contest is your prompt:


Den of Hostility


Write me something about this -
it can be literal
it can be metaphorical
it can be - whatever you like

You can enter as many times as you like.

However, please remember to label appropriately - and it is always nice to comment on each others work.

I will comment on every entry - however I will not view any of the entries until the contest is officially closed to prevent bias - this means it is up to you to make sure you have edited your piece until you are happy with it.


I don't like spelling or grammatical errors - I do realise that mistakes happen - but evidence of the attempt to get it right helps.



Points will increase if quality warrants it.

HM's will be added if quantity warrants it.




Have fun

Polly


P.S. Contest may be extended dependant on entries.

      It never occurred to me that there could be a link there that was a good catch!

      The prompt orginated from a game I play. The first quest is to kill all the monsters in the 'den of evil' and someone in the chat room was asking for help in the 'den of hostility' - none of us had a clue what he was on about, he got really frustrated, and it ended up being hilarious...

      Our Den is lovely
