We’re having a little tw’elabration for the 100th poetwist writing prompt on twitter, and everyone’s invited whether you tweet or not.

You can either join in here at The Pedestrian Crossing or over on twitter - whatever gig you’re into. I really hope to see you, one place or the other.

The First 95 is a link to a pdf containing the first 95 word prompts I posted on twitter.

So, here’s the deal. Write a micropoem, or piece of microprose using as many of the first 95 words as you can within the 140 character limit.

If you’re tweeting, you’re used to the 140 character gig, and for those of you blogging you can count characters (140 max including spaces & punctuation), or you can write up to 20 words - which won’t be exactly the same, but close enough.

Tweeple, I’ll see you on twitter.

Bloggers, if you would post your microwrites in the comments here I’ll check back in a few days so I can reply to everyone who writes :-)

I’m looking forward to reading everyone’s wonderful creations!!

that’s a great challenge, I will need to think on this…

here’s my take:

a sly memory spin careless urges, bend & splinter, faint mirage washed in cascading blades, slip & settle into an etch of a knotted billow

My will be up @midnightstories in a few hours, but I thought I’d post an early edition here for you as well Kayt:

Ever softer imprints in the sand, I saunter over too late to see you, careless in the humid air, rise up to leave me searching for the path.
