This week – the prompt is H is for heavy or heavily.
This prompt can take you in loads of different directions:
It can be as basic as someone or something is heavy. Why is whatever it is heavy? Is it an advantage or a disadvantage that it’s heavy? How does it affect your plot?
You can have heavy horses, which are the big carthorses… there’s heavy going – sometimes literally at a racecourse, if there’s been heavy rain… and of course, you can make heavy weather of something.
You can have a heavy heart, and problems do sometimes weigh heavily on us and a big meal can lie heavy on your stomach.
Then you have heavies as in bodyguards or thugs, and actors are sometimes heavily made up.
So, it’s the usual stuff – what, who, where, when, how and why?
Let’s hear your stories, poems, pieces of descriptive writing – don’t forget, it doesn’t have to be the complete story – as long as it’s prompted by the word ‘heavy’ or ‘heavily’.
Send your work to louise.hulland@bbc.co.uk and we’ll have a look at them when we meet again on 18th August.
