The future of the Firestarter Challenge

The current setup unfortunately isn’t working, as it pushes the normal posts off the page too quickly, so we’re working on a calendar type of dealie or thingamajig that can be on the right whatchamacallit, ya know, the do-hickey, the right side table. Anyway, until that comes up we’ll have some intermittent exercises posted, and we’ll get an index of different exercises used on the Firestarter Challenge Page (again, right side table) so if you’re ever bored you can pick through them and find something to try. Also helps getting started on poems if you need one for class the next morning and just can’t think of anything. So yeah. Here’s a couple random exercises:

Write a flash fiction in a room entirely shades of one color.

Write a poem about your favorite folk tale, perhaps from a radically different perspective.

Write ten similes for death involving either animals or bugs.
