I started a new writing exercise/meme/game that I want others to join in on. It's called "Stories I Never Wrote".

It's one I have been playing on Tumblr, and I wanted to share it with the folks here on Protagonize. Here are the rules:

Tell me about a story I haven't written, and I'll give you between one and five sentences from that story... Athough I reserve the right to write more if I feel so inspired.

Then I'll tell you about three other stories that you haven't written yet, and I hope you'll return the favor.


This has been a great and fun exercise on Tumblr because, in essence, you're pretending that you've already written the story in question, and you're just pulling a short scene out of it.

I hope others will join in on this game and have lots of fun participating in it.

That sound like it might be fun, I'll give it a try
So - if I've got the rules right I need to give a a story, Right?
How about - a story about a Ladybug/Ladybird (depending on where you're from), that was unable to fly ....
Is this what you mean or did I not understand meant?

About this group

Stop by the Protagonize Pub for a frosty pint and some lively banter with our members.

The Protagonize Pub is just around the corner, down a couple of doors, on the left. It's a friendly place, where Protagonizers of all shapes and sizes come to relax, take a load off, and talk about the labours of the day. Come on in, we're all writers here, and we won't bite. Well, not too much, anyway.

Whether you're a newcomer to these parts or an old hand, enter and be welcome. The topics are as varied as the people who visit, and the atmosphere is as convivial as a carnival. Meet and be met, and get to know your fellow authors. After all, we're all in this together, ain't we?
