[WP] Write about what it is like to be an extremely desirable prostitute.
People think that I need to be saved. They think that I was forced into this business, that I am a "sex slave." They're wrong. I don't need to be saved. I wouldn't be doing what I do if I didn't want to. Every night the games are a little different. Some men just want a good fuck; and they usually don't last more...

[WP] A mortal mother, close to death, pays a visit to her immortal son.
"I carried you in my arms once." She says softly. "Do you remember?" "Yes mother, I remember." He remembered everything, every line on her face that had grown with each passing day as his own skin stayed smooth, every time she had looked in the mirror and sighed at the travesties that old age had wreaked upon her. E...

The first thing she smelled was oranges. It was one of the side-effects of becoming Deathless, a quirk affecting a small percentage of those treated that the scientists and doctors couldn't quite explain. And as usual, he was late; another thing she'd tried and failed to teach him about. She eased herself into the e-l...

[WP] A mortal mother, close to death, pays a visit to her immortal son.
The wrinkles on her leathery face became much more pronounced when she smiled up at me. Her frail hand was held in mine. As I felt her grip losing strength, I tightened my own. Her skin was draped over her bones, reminiscent of the tablecloths she would set out when I was a child. My eyes observed every decaying part o...

"What do you want." he snarled at her as he down the pistol he was cleaning. "Is that anyway to greet your mother?" she asked in that calm voice he always hated. "I'm busy why are you here. I don't need another pointless lecture from you so save your breath." he turned away and continued to clean the pistol handlin...

He was always so strong, so healthy, so... perfect. Any mother would say that, I know, but John, my little Johnny, he was perfect. And unchanged. Always the same polite, intelligent, and loving boy. Always. I open the door to his room. He's reading. I just stand there for a moment, breathing heavily. Maybe my conditio...

[WP] A mortal mother, close to death, pays a visit to her immortal son.
It took all her effort to make the 34 steps from her front door to the taxi. The ride to the hospital was too short for rest. As she shuffled into the sterile white room she sighed. So many tubes. So much noise. So little peace. But this was the life that he had chosen. He sat in the colorful gown she had made hi...

“I hate seeing you like this…” Steven moped over to the chair beside the bed and threw himself down. “You should still be sixty-five, adventuring forever. It’s not fair.” From the bed Evelyn turned over, eyes always glimmering as if they had never seen pain. “Son, don’t think I don’t realize,” she let out a laugh whic...

When Eve woke up that day, she knew. She was finally going to be forced from this Earth. The illnesses had been laying siege to her heart for some time now, and the walls were ready to give in. But not now. Not yet. Eve still had to attend to unfinished business in this world. Her son. "Joshua," Eve called softly. "J...

[WP] A mortal mother, close to death, pays a visit to her immortal son.
A cold January day. Slowly, she walked down the crowded main street, trying to avoid bumping into anyone. It was a long walk to the jail house. Her toes, not covered by her worn sandals, fingers, and nose, were freezing from the winter wind. Shivers ran through her body. She fixed her scarf so that she would retain a...

"Mother, please" he begs softly, feeling more Vulnerable Than he had ever felt in the past 45 years. "Its my time, alphonse" She looked at her son, he looked so young. But that's the point isnt it, she thought, he will always look this way. "It doesn't have to be mom! IT DOESNT HAVE TO BE!" He was trembling, he w...

The ticking clock echoed through the room. Why had his mother come to visit so suddenly? He hadn't seen her in months, but she'd began to look quite frail. "I'm dying," her words were emotionless as she stared out the window at the passing cars. "Everyone is mother," He said with a sigh. "No," she turned and stared ...

[OT] Wanting to turn your prompts into films!
This has been brought up multiple times recently. Surprising. Anyway, you'll have to ask people on a case-by-case basis. There's no other way to do it, unless someone gives you explicit permission to do this to any of their prompts. I, for one, would be interested.

Can we get some more details? Do you guys have a portfolio of work we can see? How exactly do you plan to release and/or market it on the internet? Any plans to compensate potential authors? What is you goal in doing this, generally speaking?

I'm all for it! Always been somewhat of a dream for me for something I've written to be made into some kind of short film or whatnot.

[WP] Instantly and without explanation, the location of every person is randomly shuffled.
A fierce brightness overwhelmed Ling's eyes. He blinked, then closed one eye, like his mother had told him to do when things were too bright. Slowly, he could begin to see in front of him. His stomach dropped when he realized what he was seeing were clouds not above him, but right in front of him. They were moving past...
