Introduction

Apologies for the mistake in the title but I'll get it right in September.

Every so often I set prompts in the Vocal Social Society and offer a dollar tip to three random creators who take part in it and ask them to share their stories in the comments and on the thread in the group.

This is not official and usually after each one I say that's it, but this is another time where I say, "No, let's have another prompt.

So What's Gonna Happen This Time?

I want you to write me a story or poem, the theme is the month is the Autumn Harvest but you can take that any way you want. In the song "Harvest Home" is the line "Just as you sow you shall reap" and tat could take it in many directions.

The harvest can be actual or allegorical.

I will write one myself and include it, but that won't be classed as an entry.

I am looking forward to seeing what you come up with and I know that you are all incredible creative Vocal talents, so get your pens, paper and keyboards out.

The music is "Harvest Home" by Big Country

Take a listen, it may give you an idea or two.

So SHARE YOUR WORK in the comments here and/or also on the thread in the Vocal Social Society if you are on Facebook.

On Sunday 1st September 2024, I will award a dollar tip to three random Vocal Creators who have shared their work here.

The Thread in VSS will appear here

Here is the last prompt/challenge with the results and stories:

    Hope you don't mind I double-dipped by applying the overboard challenge, but your challenge was the only way I got inspired for that one: https://shopping-feedback.today/fiction/the-river-s-due%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cstyle data-emotion-css="w4qknv-Replies">.css-w4qknv-Replies{display:grid;gap:1.5rem;}
