The One-Line Lyric Challenge has been updated -- please read below! Welcome to the One-Line Lyric Challenge! Every month, I will post two songs: One with a lyric prompt (start of the month) and one as a song prompt (middle of the month). Entries will be due at the end of the month for either prompt. Lyric Prompt: Write a poem or story and include the prompted lyric line somewhere in your work, word for word. It's up to you how you want to incorporate the line. Please bold the line to make it easier for me to find. It's OK if your work is loosely inspired by the song, but try not to make it too similar or copy the song. If you don't like the provided lyric prompt, you can pick a different line from the lyrics to incorporate (only one line). Song Prompt: Write a poem or story inspired by the song. You do not need to include any lyrics directly, and in some cases there may not be any lyrics. Just write whatever the music or lyrics inspires. Please link back to the challenge somewhere in your entry using {item:lyric} and post your entry as a link in the comments here. The Prizes: 5K GPs, a merit badge of my choosing, plus a guaranteed review of your entry. If you enter both prompts that month, you will get double the prizes! Feel free to listen and comment on the music or other people's entries, even if you don't plan to enter the challenge! There may be gift points in store for people who are active in the comments or share / promote the challenge.

| Here we have our first whole song prompt for the challenge! No need to include any lines, just write a story or poem inspired by the song. Deadline for this prompt is the end of the month, same as the lyric prompt. Feel free to do both prompts, if you are so inclined. Now I can include songs that are instrumental, like this one by Lindsey Stirling. For those who haven't heard of Lindsey, she's well known for her violin dancing. And, yes, I mean dancing whilst playing the violin. She has a unique musical style that ranges from classical to electronic and even dubstep. "Masquerade" is one of my favorites. I love the music in combination with the visual story telling and the choreography, all of which I'm sure are Lindsey's creation. This one may or may not have been influenced by the newest season of Bridgerton, which I may or may not have binge watched last night. Without any further to-do, enjoy the Masquerade. Song Prompt: "Masquerade" by Lindsey Stirling Happy writing! |
| This is the first entry of the updated One-Line Lyric Challenge! If you aren't sure what's changed, please read the description. The biggest thing is that now you'll be getting posts twice a month. This one will be a lyric prompt, the next entry (in about 2 weeks) will be a whole song prompt. Entries (for either prompt) are due at the end of the month. But for this month only, I will allow catch-up entries for any previous prompts. And now, for something a little bit funky. Starts out a bit slow, but then builds. To be honest, I don't know anything else by this band, but I stumbled across this song and was hooked. "Still Feeling You" by Couch Lyrics: ▼ Lyric Prompt: "(I) melt away" Include the above line somewhere in your entry (words in parentheses are optional). Please bold the line so I can find it. I figured with temperatures rising, this prompt would be apt. If you don't like the given prompt, you can chose another line from the lyrics above. |
