I was gone for two weeks on vacation, so I feel very inspired to write something about travlling. Wether it's a summer vacation, a trip on a rocket ship, or just a walk over to the local park, write about someone who goes some where. Or, more specifically:
Song: Vida La Viva- Coldplay (I listened to the version by Dallas String Quartet)

^^You may use EITHER of these people as charachters or just insparation.^^
Word limit: 500-700 (Hehe short this time!)
Other limits: Use dialogue and thought as much as possible, keep descripion to a minimum.
Extra Challenges: 1- Ust the Dallas Sring Quartet version as insparation. 2- Use both charachters.
I will edit this and post my writing here when I finish it.
Happy writing, and THANK YOU IF YOU ARE READING THIS!
Please comment, I have know idea if anyone is actually reading this otherwise.

I have created a list of 14 songs and 28 pictures of people, and paired them up two photos for each song randomly. Now, what am I going to do? I'm going to post them here, one week at a time along with other prompts, and YOU can write somthing based on the promps along with me! Each day will have a word limit and possibly a few other constraints, but other than that it's very open. I hope you enjoy this blog and write with me!

Week of June 2nd Prompt
Write a song! You don't have to be a musician to write lyrics, you know.
Word limit: I looked up the average word count for a song and it said that the average word count in the 1960s was 176, and during the past year it was 436. I really think it depends on the person, and the style of music. I listen to alot of 60s music and my word count was 166. I'll leave this up to your judgement. (Rescorce here.)
Other limits: Don't copy a poem and set it to music, write your own poem
Extra Challenges: 1- Relate it to standing up for something you believe in, or not standing up for something you don't believe in. 2- Write music for it!
Here is my song, I wish I could post the music because that's where it really started, but I don't want anybody to steal it.

‘I won’t Stand’ by Page Ashleigh (me)
I won’t stand for a world
That decides not to stand for each other
I won’t stand for a world
That will not stand up to its problems
I won’t stand for a world
That decides not to stand for each other
When the rain comes down
And the stars won’t shine
I will still refuse to stand
Oh, I won’t stand for a world
I won’t stand for a world
Where you’re not allowed to love
I won’t stand
I won’t stand for that world
I won’t stand for a world
No I won’t
No I won’t
No I won’t
I won’t stand for a world
That refuses to acknowledge our cries
I won’t stand
