Title: The Wishing CoinBy Esther
Word Count: 689
What would you do if you had a wish? Any wish in the world. World peace? A million wishes? A car? Be the coolest person in school? Well I wouldn't know because I DIDN'T GET THE WISH. No... My BROTHER got the wish. And do you know what he wished for? A corndog. That's it. That's what he wished for. A. CORNDOG. I mean, he's 18! He should be smart enough to wish for something better than a CORNDOG. I mean, he could have at least wished for a GIANT corndog. But noooooo! Just a plain, normal, corndog. He didn't even wish for sause to go with it! I glared at him while we were both in the kitchen looking for ketchup that he wanted so much to go with it.
"You know you're retarded right?" I said to him looking in the refrigerater and taking out a bottle of ketchup.
"Um. I am the one in collage remember? You're just in 7th grade." He said taking the ketchup and pouring it all over the corndog.
"At least I wouldn't wish for something that we already have IN THE FREEZER!" I said opening the freezing and taking out a box of ready to make corndogs.
"I didn't want to take the time to heat it up!"
"UGG!! You're impossible!"
"Thank you." He said taking a bite out of the corndog right in my face. I waved my hand in front of my nose.
"Ew...! Maybe you should have wished for a girlfriend! Or at least better breath. Then maybe a girl with actually LOOK at you!"
"Blah blah blah!"
"I'd rather not have sea food thank you." I pushed his face away from mine ran upstairs.
"It's not my fault that I found the wishing coin before YOU!" He yelled after me. The wishing coin. He hid it in his room somewhere. Maybe if I found it I could make a wish. When I walked into his room and almost puked. And I'm pretty sure that would make the room look BETTER. Dirty clothes and food was everywhere. His bed was unmaid and there was a peice of old peperoni pizza on the lamp.
"Ewww!!" I searched around quickly and found it under his pillow. "I should have known." That's what he says is a GREAT hiding place. Maybe he should have wished for a BRAIN. I picked up the coin victoriously and ran to my room and sat on the bed. Then I rubbed it together in my hands. It's one wish per person. One wish per person. I thought carefully, then my stomach growled... Mmmm I'm hungry. I wish I had a hotdog. I smelt a hotdog in my hands and smiled.
"Mmmm..." Then I opened my eyes and saw one. "Wow how did that-?" I stopped and screamed. My brother ran into my room.
"What happened!" He was waving a fork wildly around.
"Because that's really going to protect me." I said rolling my eyes and jumped off the bed. He looked at the hotdog in my left hand, and his coin in the right.
"Don't tell me you-?"
"I did..." I looked down sadly. He burst out laughing.
"You.... You told me not to use my only wish on a corndog, and you used your only wish on a.."
"Don't you dare!"
"On a HOT DOG!!!!!" He was rolling on the ground laughing now. His corndog was still in his hand. I grabbed it and threw it out the window. He jumped up and glared at me. Then he took my hotdog and chucked it out the window. We stood there glaring at each other than burst out laughing.
"Let's just get rid of the coin, we already made a wish." He threw it out the window. Then we walked down to the kitchen to get something to eat. If we had looked out the window we would have seen a hobo eating a hotdog, a half eaten corndog and was holding a coin. We also would have seen the man the would be on the newspaper tomorrow with the headline, 'The World's Richest Man'.
haha thanks! stupid wishes were the first funny thing that came to my mind
mine, isn't really a story, more of a narrative, instructional guide... :P here:Title: Picking a Title
By Kimathy
Word Count: 352
Titles titles titles... I once read a book that didn't have a title. Maybe the title had been rubbed off, maybe they forgot to print it, or maybe it just didn't have one! But anyway, it was about a cowboy. Now I very much disliked this book, but besides that, it’s always made me think; why do you need a title? Of course later on I found out why! To attract your reader, when I’m looking at a pile of books I pick the book with the best title, the most exiting whether it be one word or 23 words.
Witch book would you rather read? The Life and Times of George Washington. Or, George; The Novel About a Lad That Lied About Lying... m mm? I'm pretty sure I would pick up the latter first. But that's just an example of course! There are some very good books with boring titles... I can't think of any but I'm sure there is somewhere.
Now for me I want a book that intrigues me, when I read the title I think, "Now what the heck is that going to be about??" for example: Keeping the Moon. Just from the title I want to read it. "The moon? What? She’s keeping it? I must learn more!” But that's just my opinion. Another good example of this? Kissing the Rain..." wait! How do you kiss the rain?"
then again there are those books that have one word titles, Cut, Candy, they are both good books I'm sure (never read them myself but I might because of there titles!) whoa! Look at that! I’m seeing titles and I want to read them already. Wow (now you’re supposed to laugh because that was sarcasm)
OH and I love books whose titles aren't technically spelled right! For example; Magyk . This way I have a fairly good idea of a theme (magic) and I want to know why she spelled it so interestingly!
And my last note on picking titles, try something really long and weird, like The Hollow Chocolate Bunny's Of the Apocalypse. Sounds good to me!

Title: The Tales of a Prince
By: Gwendalynn
Word Count: 404 (A palindrome!!)
My name is Prince Edward Jacob Emmett Carlisle Jasper Black Cullen, but most people just call me Your Highness. I used to have a kingdom, but my parents sold it on eBay. You might wonder why I still have the title of being a prince. Well, I just like it. My ex-kingdom was the pride of my life. It stretched from the farthest reaches of the Forrest of Immense Strength to the shallow waters of the Weak Sea. Everyone knew, and coveted, my ex-kingdom. I’ve been in many battles over it, and won every one. I know one of them bought my kingdom.
Even being the kingdomless prince I am, I’m still well-known around this world called Koif. My adventures are very numerous, but one of my more successful exploits was a battle on a very hot day close the Stewing Desert. I triumphed over Roast, the wild boar monster, in the boiling waters of the Bay of Carrotoes.
Some people say that I have a serious case of RAM, Random Access Memory. But seriously, some days I can’t decide between a pink tunic or a purple one. They clearly don’t know what their talking about. I have a perfectly good memory. I remember everything from the time I was born, even that time my sister beat me using her backhand. Wait, no, I’ve never been beaten by a girl…often.
I was in love once too, with a beautiful princess in the neighboring kingdom. She didn’t give me the time of day. One day I decided I was going to get her attention. I created the most romantic atmosphere. A picnic of bread and cheese with the beautiful view of my kingdom. Unfortunately, when she showed up, it was garbage day. She didn’t like the view, or me, very much after that.
But I finally found the love of my life, yesterday. She is an ex-princess, like me. Although she still has a kingdom. She was sold as a book on Amazon and now there’s a new princess. It was love at first sight when I saw her fall into a puddle of mud. I’ll never forget the first thing she said to me, “you’ve got some jelly on your face.” I was eating a jelly donut. I immediately asked her to marry me, and she said yes. Now we have two kids, live in the enchanting New Mexico, and live happily ever after.
