Visual Dare 35: Conference

TIME FOR ANOTHER VISUAL DARE!

This is our last challenge for the 2012 year! It is, however, certainly NOT the end of our weekly challenge. The Visual Dare challenge will continue into 2013, with only slight tweaks to the rules and guidelines. For anyone worried that I'm tampering too much with a good thing - don't fret; the changes are SMALL and, I think, will be appreciated.
(HINT: Think "expanded word count.")

More on that later; but for now - a last cozy photo to wrap up this festive season of the year. 
What do you think this little posse is up to? 100 word limit! See where this takes you....!

Visual Dare 34: The Kiss


WOW. Our next-to-last Visual Dare for 2012!! 
Time has flown.....

....and meanwhile, the mannequins at Hobby Lobby have been having fun.
A lot of fun, apparently.

EXPLANATION
Usually I post photos that I find elsewhere on the internet for 
your writing pleasure. But last week, as I was Christmas shopping for the nephews, 
I found this display in an odd corner of Hobby Lobby - and it fired my imagination on the spot.

What do you think? 

What would spark a couple styrofoam mannequins on a Hobby Lobby shelf? 
(Not exceeding a PG-13 rating, of course. 
Please don't traumatize my students who frequent this blog.) 
;-)

Can't wait to see everyone's take on this one! (Reminder about entry guidelines below.)


Caught them making out by the party supplies in Hobby Lobby. How ironic.


RULES:
Study the photo.....let the imagination wander....

Then tell the story in 100 words...or less.

This prompt will be up until next Tuesday midnight EST. Then we'll do it again...!

Visual Dare 32: Disobey


After a lovely month of Triple Visual Dares for NaNoWriMo, 
we are back to the standard format.

But that's okay...because a lot of times, simple is more challenging than complex.



RULES:
Study the photo.....let the imagination wander....

Then tell the story in 100 words...or less.

Use the link interface below to link this page directly to your story post OR

This prompt will be up until next Tuesday midnight EST. Then we'll do it again...!

I put this photo with the prompt "disobey" because the look
in the little girl's eyes seems to have all sorts of mischievous
meaning. Wonder what she's up to...?
