One of the nice things about fiction is that you can write anything. Stories should be internally consistent and follow the rules you make for them, but beyond that, you are the creator of your own worlds. For example, I once wrote a story about a taxi driver who was a pigeon. The concept is absurd but it’s not a comedic story. Which leads us to this week’s prompt.

This week’s prompt is the first line of a story:

I never imagined my knight in shining armor would arrive riding a turtle.

I’m going to post my story for the prompt next week, but if you want to share your story too, you can either email me at info@greenwalledtreehouse.com or submit it at the link here for a chance to have it posted on the site next week.
