#PromptParty Announcement and First Prompt: Courage (Sept 5-11)
Discovering a writing tribe here has been awesome-sauce on a banana split. I don't know how better to describe the feeling than biting into warm brownies or having a whole pint of PB ice cream just for me. Tribe means safety. Tribe means support. Tribe means other people trying the way you are trying.
I hope you share in this security, but whether you yet feel like tribe or not, you are invited to participate in this prompt party.
First, the prompt:
Courage.
How do you define it? How have you expressed it? How do you see it? How do you show it?
Guidelines for participation:
All types of prompt responses are welcome excluding pornography.
We are all types of artists here. For that reason, your response can be
an image,
a haiku,
a novel,
a personal essay,
a piece of flash fiction,
a handcrafted technical definition,
a drawing,
a painting,
a journal entry,
a vlog,
a song,
or [fill in the blank].
It just has to be original and it has to be yours.
Finally, use the tag #promptparty with your post. That will help us find each other on Steemit.
When you post, link back to the week's prompt and tag the person who posted the prompt. I don't want to hog all the attention, so I will be passing the Everlasting Prompt Party Glow Stick to another tribe member each week. The Lightbearer will do the same the following week. Tribe will be defined by those who participate regularly. Basically, let's make a Steemit wave!
Wait. Why a Lightbearer?
I firmly believe art is a path to global wellness. We can express through art what we so often cannot state in conversation. It offers us a way to sort and clarify our thoughts, and relate to one another with compassion by providing distance, room for personal interpretation and, thereby, empathy. This is grace, in it's purest form. This, to me, is light. I want to share that light, and Steemit has shown an amazing place to do so. I hope you'll join me!
Good to do but not required:
Upvote and resteem the week's prompt post and any response posts. This will increase community visibility.
This Prompt Party ends Monday, September 11. Appropriate given the prompt, yes? Have your response posted by then.
Remember to link this post and use the tag #promptparty. Top responses will be highlighted in a linky post, and the next Lightbearer will be announced Tuesday, Sept. 12th.
