3 random mandatory words (carpet, suspicious, cappuccino etc) may be an interesting twist, testing the writer's ability to seamlessly incorporate them into the narrative.
At home we do this for bedtime stories (so I can turn the lights out to encourage sleepiness for those who have to see the pictures). It dose make it interesting for me, working out how I'll put in a unicorn and also a minecraft creeper!


Theme; animals.

So I give a source for a picture: https://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/Chaos#/media/Datei:Untidy_living_room_after_unwrapping_gifts.jpg

Everybody should be able to access this.

People wanting three words, please give the words beforehand.

Carpet, suspicious, cappuccino was just an example of 3 random mandatory words. The actual selection should come from yourself or somebody not affiliated with the competition. 🙂



Only 7 votes? 😒

I voted for them anyway.

I'd be suspicious of anyone calling me on the carpet for drinking a cappuccino.

Edit: Had to double "p" cappuccino.
