It’s Wednesday again, and that means that it’s time for another scene challenge! I hope you all are looking forward to it, and I hope that you’re having a great day so far! So, here’s the rules for scene challenges: I provide you with specific rules for how to write a particular scene. Try to keep your scene under five hundred words, and try to keep it in the same tone as the introduction. If I give a line that is very dark and depressing, then I don’t want to see a scene about a drunken monkey in a tutu…it just doesn’t fit. If I do give you a line about a drunken monkey in a tutu, then you should probably try for a funny scene.
Your challenge: Write a scene of at least 300 words that has no adjectives in it. Do your best to give strong vivid descriptions focusing on action, but remember, no adjectives. Your scene: ‘Whistling had always been a good way for Paul to express…’
Okay, I’m going to go ahead and say that this will be a fairly rough challenge. Still, have fun with it!
