Prompt: True Colours
Posted: Fri Dec 03, 2021 10:08 pm
Colours! They can be a great way to enrich your writing and really paint a picture for your reader. They can also be a powerful way to symbolise things (just think about our house colours) or to give people a subtle hint about something or someone.
For this prompt, we’d love you to write a story (200 words or more) where you pay particular attention to your use of colours. Maybe you’re describing a fabulous party where all the decorations and people’s outfits are in jewel-bright shades, maybe it’s a peaceful sunrise or maybe it’s something quite different. Whatever it is, providing it’s colourful and HOL appropriate, the choice is yours.
You’ll earn 20 beans for completing this prompt as well as it counting towards the chance to snag our shiny Quill and Ink award.
There is no deadline as such for these prompts but if you’d like it to count towards your chance of earning the award for a specific year, we’ll need it by the end of that school year. If you’re comfortable sharing, then post below. If not, email your story to us via hol.bookclub @ gmail.com (without the spaces). Oh and remember it’s a good idea to check through your piece carefully for spelling and grammatical errors as they make it harder for people to properly enjoy your work.
