Options: show me the world in your eyes through:
1] a piece about a significant struggle you continuously face.
2] a piece about pain. If you dare to 'describe" physical pain, go on and amuse me.If you write about emotional pain, I want to feel it... anything you can conjure up.
3]describe inspiration as you see it. What/Why/How does something inspire you. I want to jump with inspiration!
capture wonder!
4] give me a piece like a puzzle from any experience.THOUGHT PROVOKING !!! (*cough* metaphors *cough*)

THANKS LadyUnique for your generosity

Darn, if this allowed prewrites... I gave up writing for contests a while ago, I found I couldn't stay true to the topic, and it became about something else, because I couldn't find the passion in virtual points.
But I love the ideas, and you should get some interesting entries...
