This month brings two writing challenges, the first of which includes a trio of images to set the scene…
The Poisoned Martini features monthly images to spark your creativity. Such images, because of their visual nature, vividly speak to writers and spark ideas for writing. The idea is to view the image below and to write a scene, a short story, a chapter, a novella, or maybe even a novel.
Last month’s image featured a friendly squirrel in our nation’s Capital. After a few squeaky noises, this little guy (or gal) looked up at the camera read for his close up. No doubt he was expecting food, which I didn’t have at the time. Sorry. If I recall correctly, this photo was taken near the Kennedy Center in 1992. View the image, here.
For this month’s challenge, are you willing to tell the tale of what happens in Vegas…?
