In Which I Say and Hear All Kinds of Bizarre Things, You Use Those Things As Writing Prompts, and The Winner Takes Glory, Bragging Rights, and a Free Year Of The Starfire Codes on Substack....
Oh! I can’t resist this prompt - “Who blasts Wilson Phillips???” 🤩🤩🤩 Im going to have to buy some time to write something! Maybe a song? Music 🎶 I’ll surprise you!
My manager Richard Duryea helped build the Mamas and the Papas career, and he was the road manager for The Beach Boys when he was young. He maintains a close relationship with all the living members.I attended Carnie’s wedding with him back in I think 2000 or so. This is going to be fun!
I love this contest idea, Demi! I'm in the market for a new song. And I can see some good lyrical potential in here: "I'm fine. I'm just annoyed by repetition. I've learned this lesson. Someone kick the jukebox. It's skipping." ;)
Taking a buzzer beater shot here Demi. I wrote one of the lines into my ongoing saga in hopes to get the entire fourth installment done before the end of the month. I still have a ways to go, so I clipped the first chapter and would like to submit it to you and your readers as my entry for the month of April. It’s the longest leg of the journey yet.
Thanks for continuing with this contest every month, it’s a lot of fun
Writing Contest Submission for Sentences I Never Thought I Would Say Or Hear: Volume Four. I used five of your prompts in a fan fiction short story. They are bolded. Hope you enjoy. [https://rayfoy.substack.com/p/losses]
Hi! Here’s my entry. It’s a romantic contemporary short story. 4K words. I merged 2 paragraphs from the prompt list into the story (somewhere in the middle-ish) The story contains strong language and sexual references.
Loved this one: “It might be alive, it might be breathing, if you poke it with a stick, I can't guarantee you can tell its mouths from its anuses....” It’s a concept I often ruminate upon. It’s not the one I’ll write about, but it’s totes groovy all the same.
Every time I see the “sentences I never thought I’d hear” threads, Lupe Fiasco’s “words I never said” automatically starts playing in my head and I have to listen to it at least once.

If you’re unfamiliar with it, I strongly recommend. It’s powerful: https://youtu.be/22l1sf5JZD0?si=VlRuXnnllzYNFEUe
It's an honor to be a participant in these exercises. Happy belated Easter!
Could have made this a novel but I had to stick to just writing 830 words. Please enjoy my submission: https://open.substack.com/pub/velvetroompublishing/p/a-clean-up-in-the-diner?r=1ha32l&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true
ShitGlitterLandia is my prediction for at least one of the submission titles.
