YOUR CHALLENGE:


Write about an abstract concept without actually saying what that concept is.

Choose one of the words from the list below, and write in the style of your choice using that word as your subject or theme--the piece doesn't have to be directly about your word, but the word should be somehow central or essential to your work. The catch is this: you can't actually use the word, or any of its synonyms or opposites, but the reader should still be able to guess what it is.


Words to Choose from:


hunger
anger
lovesickness
poverty
joy
annoyance
friendship



If you would like to use a different word of your own choosing, PM me the word so I can disclose it after you've wrote and others have had a chance to guess your word.
