Gather Writing Essentials-- Monday (MWE) 10/26/2009 Optional Prompt

Hi Gather Members!

This week's prompt is also a bit different. We're going to take Gatherland into a different place. There is no internet, no cell phones, no texting and no cars. We will exist in a Utopian Society, the place is your choice, as is what happens to and within it.

If you'd like to move us all to an island, feel free -- a different location, go for it. Since we have no modern conveniences, I guess we'll all have to stick together and get along - or will we?

Here are a few examples of a Utopian Society

Here and Here, but of course  yours doesn't have to be anything like these, they're just examples. This is a fun way to use your imagination, so please have a good time with this. There is no wrong thing to do.

As always, I will not offer critique' or correct your grammar - unless you ask for it at the end of your post. You may feel free to critique' my prompt. Beginners, jump in and try this. Have some fun.

For my own help, please put (MWE) in the title, but also the tags. Frankly, I'll see the title better and feel free to post this to any other appropriate groups. Any type of Flash Fiction comes to mind as do a few other good groups, like The Surreal Circus.

Things I will accept also, but they must have (MWE) somewhere in the title and hopefully the tags:

Here are the other things that I'll accept:
Poetry or prose.
Fiction or Non-Fiction.
A photo essay, that tells a story.
A book or movie review.

What I will not accept:

Political Articles.
Games.
Posts with one line in them.
The name of a book, with no reasons why you liked/disliked it.
Health posts.

These are groups owned by Gather and they have their own week and there are many other groups that will gladly accept them.

If you'd like private critique', send me a private message and I'll be glad to help.

Please use the proper tags, in the titles of the other Editor's days. We only have one day per week to accept these, so this is also important and the other Editors all issue great prompts.

Anything without (MWE) in the title as well as the tags, I will not accept.

Encourage each other and send me an e-mail if for some reason  your post disappears, as it happened last week, almost as soon as I'd accepted it. If it's a Gather glitch, I need to know -- thanks!

Check out the other Gather Writing Essential Editor's Prompts, as they're different every day.

You have from Monday, October, 26 through November 2, 2009, though if you need more time, let me know. You can also write for any prompts you might have missed. Life gets in the way sometimes.

Write on and the Recap from last week's writing, will be out later today.
