Mythological Mash-up
You come across an old text that claims you are in fact a demigod, a person whose one parent is/was a mythological god and whose other parent is/was mortal. Many ancient civilizations such as Greek, Celtic, Sumerian and Indian hosted the belief in demigods and some still do.

Write about a day in the life of your “demigod self”.
Get creative and more importantly….have fun! 🙂

For those who celebrated the Victoria Day Weekend…this one is for you. For many the Victoria Day weekend marks the launch of the nice weather and to some the start of the warm weather outdoor festivities (camping, BBQ’s etc.). For some Canadians it is often nicknamed the May 2-4, which is slang for a case of twenty-four beers. The May 24 weekend is the weekend that many wild parties have been spawned…parties, you dare not speak of…or do you?!? You wake up the morning after the weekend and don’t seem to remember much of the preceding events but notice several things seem oddly out of place, namely…
Get creative and have fun!
“Like everyone else, I am going to die. But the words – the words live on for as long as there are readers to see them, audiences to hear them. It is immortality by proxy. It is not really a bad deal, all things considered.”
