Your challenge is to come up with a fantastic piece of creative writing based on the prompt that you are given. The catch is that your entry must be EXACTLY 100 words. You can write what ever you like; tell a story, write a poem, talk about an event anything you like as long as it is related to the prompt. So what are you waiting for...give it a go!! There will be prizes for the best creative piece of writing each week.

You can click on comment below and type your writing straight on to the class blog, or you could type you writing on Microsoft word (use the word count tool) or write you writing by hand and type it on to the blog later.
