Welcome to a new week!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading every entry in last week’s Xploration Challenge. Certain things were known, and certain things were a revelation. But it gives great pleasure to know each one of you at a deeper level.
The exercise reminded me of Tolstoy’s quote.
A man is like a fraction whose numerator is what he is and whose denominator is what he thinks he is.
Leo Tolstoy
May the denominator drive life in a way that it enriches the numerator.
PROMPT #452
We are focusing on FRACTIONS this week
Prompt 1 – Missing pieces
One morning, the world breaks into fractions. Cities split into halves, conversations become quarter-truths, and people can only remember pieces of their lives. Your protagonist discovers that the missing pieces haven’t vanished; they’ve gone somewhere else.
Explore what is lost, what is gained, and whether completeness is overrated.
PROMPT 2 – Inheritance
We inherit fractions – one third of a song, half a secret, quarter of a map, one-sixth of a story. It is in our DNA. We spend the rest of our lives piecing together the fractions.
Shared stories give an impetus, so give us yours. It might change my story in small, imperceptible ways.
Choose any one of the above, and use it as a foundation for your piece. Let the imagination run as wild as it can, or find a baseline of facts hitherto ignored.
There is no restriction on the length of the piece. There is no deadline unless you wish to be featured in the Weekly Wrap.
We will not include offensive or vulgar posts, or posts that hurt ordinary sensibilities. This needs to be a safe space.
