Devereaux Frazier and Beth Amanda are currently hosting the Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge which was started by our star writer Christine Ray. We hope to offer all of you something that will spark your creativity and willingness to participate.
The prompts are designed to be quick challenges that can be written in 10 to 15minutes, inspire you creatively, are fun, and get everyone interacting. Please post your response to the prompt in the comments below and show your fellow posters some love and support. All members of the Go Dog Go community, including Baristas, are welcome to participate. Feel free to share this post on your own blogs and/or Facebook.
Today’s prompt: Write a piece of prose around the word: “sirens”
Happy Writing!
This is my first time doing this and I am a couple of days late, which doesn’t bode well for the future, or even for the rest of this shambles.
Before the country wakes up the Conservative party Senior Siren Scheduler is hard at work rigging up hot panic buttons which link to the central press scrutiny office in the basement of number 10; their job to make a note of all the howlers mentioned on the various breakfast media over the country. In usual times, the network would be international, but in the present situation, with travel limited, they only deal in Britain, England specifically, the others have their own problems.
Behind a bank of desks sit the excusers, people wired on cheap coffee, whose job it is to try and come up with some excuse for the idiotic turns of phrase and assumptions the so called people in charge are making on a daily basis.
Once the faux pas are made a siren blasts out over the operatives, who all visibly scrunch up their shoulders, its always a surprise, especially with the coffee coursing through their veins.
The army of operatives is getting larger and larger as this virus continues, in an example;e of this government getting the economy going and providing jobs for the masses.
