My first entry into the challenge, hope it turns out ok.
A charming author
Looks out his window pondering
Shark is his topic
That charming author looks out his window in despair. He ponders and ponders on what to write about and nothing is coming to him. He is a spectacular writer, and everyone loves to read his stories and novels. A serious case of writer’s block was cast down upon him, and he was puzzled on what to write about. He turned on his TV and saw that Discovery Channel was having their annual shark week, he was no longer puzzled. He quickly boot up his computer and opened a word document and began to write…
“Sharks are fasinating beasts that forever have been part of many classical myths and legends galore. The firecest of these beasts is the Great White Shark….”
The charming author was befuddled once again, he did not want to give a whole lecture on sharks, he wanted to entertain his readers not cram little bits of usless information into their heads. He restarted…
“It was gaining on us, that terrible shark, he was to kill us for sure. We were in a slow pontoon boat that could barley reach over 30mph and that shark was surley going 45mph…”
No, no, no, that surely wasn’t going to do. It wasn’t unique, it wasn’t even scary as every other novel/story starts this way. He, again, restarted…
“The voyage…”
Plain and simple, no. Anything that starts with “The Voyage,” is down right lame and dumb. Restart, once again…
“Once upon a time…”
No comment. Maybe it is time to pick a new topic, sharks are no good. The Charming author looked out his window in depression just pondering and pondering on what to write about…
A charming author
With nothing to write about
Looks out his window
