Another strange week/weekend so Sunday Picture Press is a little late! I haven’t read all the great stories this week so at least I have something to look forward to — make sure you check them out!
Shadow by My Words Whisper
Love is Free by Filling a Hole
In Love with Life… by Out of the Woods
The Lingering Scent… by Mellifluous Murmurs
At the Cinema by A Space to Be Me
Unbreakable by Dave Farmer
Last Dance by Neel the Muse
Love, Stones and Symmetry by Flandrum Hill (not specifically SPP related, but inspired by the ‘romance’ idea).
My contribution this week was last-minute, rushed, and only part one. It is a slow start but more later this week — 8 Ball, Corner Pocket
Edit: I missed two stories from last week — Reversing the Soul by In Your Time and Genesis by Filling a Hole
Don’t forget to read, comment and spread the joy of all the great writers and their fantastic stories! Let me know if I missed someone.
THE VISUAL PROMPTS:
Remember: Please include a credit to the original artist. If you prefer the ‘clean’ look of the photo without a caption, please include a note somewhere on your post giving credit. Thank you!
Visual Prompt 1 -- Two Trees by Dave Farmer (http://davefarmersblog.wordpress.com)
Visual Prompt 2 -- Title and artist unknow, found via Tumblr.com
Visual Prompt 3 -- Title and artist unknown
Visual Prompt 4 -- Title and artist unknown
Visual Prompt 5 -- Last Kiss by Martinakis Adam (http://deignis.deviantart.com/)
THE TWIST
The twist this week is second chances. What if you could live life over again, what would change? What if you met that friend/lover and didn’t let go this time? What if you took that job overseas and not play it safe?
This is the second chance for your characters — to have their lives lived again!
THE RULES (FEEL FREE TO BREAK THEM):
The rules are simple: Write between 50 to 1,500 words based on the photo of your choice. Title, genre, and type (e.g. story, very short story, dialogue only, poem, lyrics, etc.) are your choice just indicate which visual prompt you chose (if you want to include the photo in your post, just click photo, then copy the link). No deadline unless you would like a link to appear on the weekly post with the new photos — then you must complete it before 3 pm ET (GMT -5) on the Sunday following this post. If you want to share your piece after the deadline just leave a comment for others to follow. There are plenty of fantastic word prompts, theme prompts, and other challenges out there, so if a photo helps with one of those, feel free to combine and have fun! If you don’t have a blog but want to join just use the contact form to see what we can work out.
As always, everything is optional, it is all about having fun and being inspired.

I am terrified of heights but I am envious of the man in that photo — what a beautiful view!
