What’s The First Thing You Thought About When You Woke Up this Morning?

This week’s prompt is quite literally as simple as the title’s one question. Seasoned writers will often advise that aspirants keep a pad of paper next to their beds so to have a place to deposit ideas at a literal arm’s length upon waking up.

Incidentally, those first few minutes while we lay in bed and let our minds think aimlessly can make for the most intriguing stories, propelled by fascinating ideas. Give it a try one morning this week. Wake up, let yourself think and write it down.

Then submit it — to write@manrepeller.com, by Thursday, January 29th at 12 pm. Submissions should be ~500 words and if you feel like getting engaged on social media, hashtag #mrwritersclub to show us your progress. I will be waiting, upper inner thigh hair standing upright, breathlessly.
