\"\"<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/a>Last week’s “I’ve Chosen Your Words” challenge was a tricky one, but some admirable tales came out of that one. You will go and check it out<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, won’t you? Good.<\/em><\/p>\n

This week, I talked a bit about creativity<\/a><\/strong><\/span> and said that it was the fire we stole from the gods.<\/p>\n

And I thought, “Hmm. Fire.”<\/p>\n

Fire.<\/p>\n

FIRE.<\/p>\n

Excellent.<\/p>\n

Last week I gave you words, this week, I give you a title:<\/p>\n

Your story will<\/em> be titled: “The Fire of the Gods.”<\/p>\n

And that’s it. That’s all I demand of you.<\/p>\n

Well, besides the standard parameters, of course. The story must be under 1000 words. Post it at your blog (not in the comments here, or I may delete it), then link back so we can all see it.<\/p>\n

You’ve got the traditional week. Get the stories in by Friday, March 23rd, noon EST.<\/p>\n

Now write, won’t you?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
