The object of this little experiment is to use the prompt to describe something ordinarily difficult to describe and then give the next person something to continue the game with.
The rules:
1. The prompt has to be something to do with the senses (something one sees, hears, smells, touches or tastes).
2. It can be described however you like it - clinically, from a character's point of view, as a metaphor or simile etc.
3. Your description must be easily inserted into a story, we're not looking for dictionary definitions so don't be boring!
4. Challenge us! Because I will challenge you, be creative.
My example:
Describe the smell of bacon
It was warm, smoky and rich. It made her nostrils flare and her mouth water. It smelled of home and hearth and the comfort that lay therein. It brought bright sunny Sunday mornings around the dining table with her father humming as he cooked up a breakfast feast to mind, immediately.
My prompt for the next person:
Describe how water sounds
