quoteception
Welcome back to yet another writing project! This one is similar to mix and match, but based on quotes. Yet again you can create your very own pool of words, quotes and characters - or you can use the one I have provided for you right here.
So what do we do? We’re taking a quote - and believe you me, there are TONS of quotes out there that you can make SO much out of - and we’re writing a short story around it. There is only one very simple rule to this - the quote has to be part of the story at one point. It can be said by a character, but it doesn’t have to. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? So here are the quotes!
By the way - if you’re having trouble planning for quoteception, you can check out this blog post here which guides you through the planning process of this project! It’s rather short, but hopefully somewhat helpful for you!
