Apparently I am off my game this week!

This post should have been up on Tuesday, so as I sat around going, “I wonder why nobody submitted any sentences this week?”, seems I am the one to blame.

Tsk-tsk.

So, send me your sentences for this week.

If you are new, see details here.

Hope you are having an AWESOME Thursday (or whatever day you read this):-)

I can’t believe it’s already been 4 weeks…I really love the sentences, keep them coming!

Here are the top 10 sentences from last week (chosen randomly).  Voting is open to anybody, so spread the word.  If a sentence you submitted is on here, well then you definitely want to have your friends stop by and vote for it!  Just give them this shortened link: 

Vote for the one you think would make the BEST starting sentence to a story.

The sentence that gets the most votes will win a $5 ecard to Amazon!

The 3 sentences with the most votes will be my prompts for next week.

Voting ends Thursday, October 11th, at midnight.

Have fun!
