I urge people to join in, comment with your paragraph of fiction to accompany the image. It doesn’t have to follow my story or reflect the same themes. It can be a poem or in a different language (provide a translation please ). Anyone who wants to join in, is welcome. This photograph will be reblogged under Ermisenda on tumblr and added to the Picture it & Write gallery on Facebook and Pinterest.
Please continue to write however you’re inspired, but add a tag to the beginning of your post if there’s mature content in order to keep Picture it & Write an engaging event for all of our followers.
“How can they not do something with this room? It’s so beautiful,” my sister said in awe. She took small steps towards the middle, scanning the walls and ceiling in admiration.
“The house is like the size of two mansions, but I guess this room is a lot smaller than the rest.” I shrugged. I didn’t get why they bought the biggest mansion on the island when they were only two people.
“I hope I end up as rich as them. I don’t care what dad says about money. He’s probably just bitter he didn’t end up as successful as his sister.”
I stared at her as she ventured towards the lone discoball on the ground. It scattered beautiful shards of light in the already stunning room.
“Would you do to me what she did to him?” I asked starkly, not walking further into the room.
She twisted around and frowned. “Really, Tomaz? I would never do that to you or anyone I cared about.”
“Okay, okay.” I put my hands up in surrender. “That was a bit harsh to ask I admit.”
My sister kicked the discoball a little. She was no longer admiring the room with wide eyes. “We don’t have to have history repeat itself in this family.”

Oooh! I love the cautionary tale. We must not be too swept up in the moment to not heed warnings. Cool little tale. It sounds like the prologue to a fairytale.
I like the two stories running together. Fabulous braiding.
Thank you. 🙂 And what a beautiful use of the word braiding. I love that word. xD
You are more than welcome. 🙂

Hi 🙂 I’ve combined it with other prompts, cheers!

I love the last two lines of this poem. Powerful. Thanks for contributin this week, Lady Lee Manila!
There was a loud “Fump!” like something heavy falling and there it was, sitting in the room, as if it had always been there. It was hard to make out what it was, there was a constant stream of light coming off, as if it was reflecting every ray that touched it. Robby was transfixed. “What is it?” he said as he slowly reached out towards the radiant sphere.
“Maybe you shouldn’t…” warned his sister but his fingers were already touching the gleaming surface.
“You see!” Robby said “It’s perfectly…”
“Fump!”
Robby was gone. So was his sister.
Only it remained.
Wow. Did not expect that ending. Such a cool, twisted little contribution, Joe.
ooooo. Love it!!! 🙂

Here’s my story for this week: https://thestorytellersabode.wordpress.com/2015/05/05/picture-it-write-childhoods-playground/
So sweet and lovely. Haha I love this line “how the rooms echoed when she shouted rude words.” Great contribution!
Thank you. 🙂

Oh.. I like this idea. If there is any specific time to post it? Am I suppose to write a story or I can write anything which comes to my mind?
No specific time. You can go back to our very FIRST picture it & write prompt years ago and still participate. 🙂 They are always open to inspire writers. You can write anything that comes to mind.
Perhaps the short-link will work for you Ermilia ~ Have a good week :
