Creatober 2020!

Rules: -Traditional: One prompt per day, either drawn or written! -Alternative: Pick 3 or more prompts and take the week to draw or write! -Note: The last three days are scenes rather than single word prompts.

October 1st- 7th: (note that the week starts on a Thursday) -Disinterest     -Presence     -Flight     -Dawn     -Drown     -Melancholy -Fracture

October 29th: A cave with a grove hidden deep within it. Pinpricks of light cast the area in a low haze. There is the smell of loamy soil and copper. A step inside causes a low, almost unnoticeable at first, hum.

October 30th: A party at a stranger’s house. A night of barhopping led here and the world had started tilting on its own hours ago. There is a constant tickle on the back of their neck. Their heart beats speed up.

October 31st: Meeting up with friends in a cemetery, chatting among the tombstones. But someone is missing. Who is it? They count the heads but come up one number more than they had originally. They count again.
