Many of you participated in the Day 100 We-Write and had tons of fun. But I believe nobody had as much fun as @snook. Not only did she trick @deaconlee (who had said that he was NOT going to do a WE-Write) into writing with her, she also created this fun video!! It is a must see!!

Get your popcorn ready and watch @snook 's masterpiece

Or better, get your dancing socks on and go for it!!

If you don't know what a freewrite is, here is a link to the introduction post.

Here is @snooks excellent tutorial on how to join our freewrite adventure

And @improv's input:

Two things I do a little differently. I just type "timer" into google and it pops up a 5-minute timer. I also type directly into steemit. I also rarely use a photo, don't I? So that's three things.

Please read, comment and vote (if you have voting power) on each others freewrites as much as you can. Especially if you are new to the platform, you will be surprised how many friendships are formed by reading and commenting on each other's work!

Bandwidth Problems

I know that many of you are very new to the platform and your wallets are pretty empty. Believe me, we all started there!! Here is an excellent article which explains what bandwidth is and why you might have a hard time logging in some days - or posting. Thank you @jrswab for this explanation

Can one of the newer Steemians please let us know if this is still a problem?

Thanks for posting today's #freewrite! Here is my response to today's prompt:

https://steemit.com/freewrite/@mkkenny13/dailyfreewritechallenge-day-113-ski


Let me know what you think =)

Woohoo, just did mine. That Chozzy!!! Such a trouble maker.
https://steemit.com/freewrite/@pixiehunter/5-minute-freewrite-friday-ski-chozzy

Here's mine for the day! freewrite: ski

Loading...

Thanks for the welcome @mariannewest
However i cant think anything about this prompt SKI

Never experienced one... ;)

Thanks for introducing freewrite into my steemitworld

More power to all, thanks thanks thanks!

But you do have something to say. This is the beauty of the freewrite - you write about what the prompt brings to your mind. so for you it could be like that:

i cant think anything about this prompt SKI

Never experienced one... ;)

in my country, there is no snow. The sun is always shining and we have the most beautiful flowers in the world. In fact, my favorite flower is.....

See how that works? The prompt brought to your mind that you don't have snow and skiing - or waterski for that matter. So, you write that down and tell us what you have, or that you wanted to experience it - or whatever....

Hope that helps :)

Awesome... You're such a star, I'll try to write this way one day :)

And ski it is! How am i to write of the Empty Chair? lol.

Thanks @mariannewest. The 13th Empty chair should hopefully be filled shortly.

You are a genius!! You can do it! 👍 😀

This is my first time - so I hope things have worked out correctly :)

It's very difficult that things don't work correctly as here they work correctly when they're not correct! Welcome to the freewriting-zone (a boredom decontaminated area).

I'm finally caught up and back on track with my writing. Yay! Here is today's submission (the conclusion to this week's story):

Prompt: Ski

OMG. what a small world Steemit is. From your list of freewriters, @isaganispeaks, @girlbeforemirror and @brewingstories are close personal friends of mine. Furthermore, I see that we are family members. In fact @brewingstories has told me about your daily contest while we were at our post of designation at the hospital as student nurses lol.

Most importantly, Im in #thealliance as well! Well not yet entirely though. Still learning the ropes at the playground. Its great that you are making this great contest and initiative. I have my own contest as well #clayartcontest.

I will definitely try to enter your contest tomorrow. Will need sleep for now. Best of luck @mariannewest!

Hope you will write with us - and the world is much closer together than we think.

How are you all doing? Cold here. More snow this afternoon. By the fire now. Lovely...

Here is mine a little late.. Sorry about that 😊
https://steemit.com/freewrite/@saffisara/ski-or-5-minutes-freewrite-day-113

no need to be sorry!! we write when we can :)

Apparently, I remembered this step in the process for four whole days. sigh https://steemit.com/freewrite/@scribblingramma/5-minute-freewrite-friday-prompt-ski

no worries. I forget too at times :) You can always post all of them in one comment under the current prompt :)
