Welcome to the resurrected (again) Writing Challenge!
In line with previous ones, this includes a topic, a prompt, and also a challenge.
__________________________
- **Topic**
The topic of this challenge is *a difficult journey home.* It could be about a someone stuck in traffic, a pet lost in the woods, a traveler stranded in an airport, or (cough) about a group of users migrating to a new site after the old one turned evil.
- **Prompt**
> At first, he/she heard no sound but the whispery hiss of the snowflakes landing.
You are free to modify this as long as the general sense is preserved.
- **Challenge**
Use "lurching", "argument" and/or "hypnotic".
______________________________
So to enter the challenge, you simply write something, and post it below. It can be a work in progress, and continue working on it while receiving feedback, or it can be a finished work - anything goes.
And of course, if you encounter any doubts related to the writing process, don't be shy and open a question on our [main site][1]!
You can submit your entries until the end of the three weeks. After three weeks, we'll choose the next prompt and put up a new post.
You can either post the whole thing here, or, if you usually post your writing somewhere else, you can put a link here - although I'd advise putting something in to get people interested.
Remember: *this is not a contest.* This is merely for fun, and for some practice writing. There will (hopefully) be writers of all different skill levels posting - *I'm* certainly not super good.
You're welcome to provide feedback, but please make sure that it's constructive. And remember: [Be Nice][2].
Remember that the age limit for the site is 13 - so please avoid excessive graphic content or strong language.
I look forward to reading the submissions!
