Writing Challenges

Hi All,

A bit before the upgrade I posted a thread called 'Writing Challenges' and asked people to write a story to a picture. The idea was two fold, first to make a small writing prompt that would get you thinking and writing about something you normally wouldn't, and second to practice (in a very easy manner) an aspect of your writing. The lengths were also very small, encouraging brevity with the writing and taking some of the pressure off the often expected long posts on Althanas.

The second writing challenge has been posted here. I also wanted to do a bit of a check on what people thought about the thread. I plan to add additional (brief) feedback for entries, and use a range of prompts (music / photos / text).

What do people think about them? Worth it? Anything that I should add?
