Wordspill #12 'Weather' entries and new theme!

~Wordspill:iconWordspill: reports, February 25

Always take the weather with you!



Well, we must say that here at Wordspill headquarters we were a little worried that last round's theme had gotten the better of you1 But with 24 hours left to go you rallied fantastically and left us with our jaw to the floor and 14 entries to read! Great work =Wordspillers!

If you are unfamiliar with what we do at =Wordspill, why not check out our About Us page or perhaps our F.A.Q. We're sure they'll answer any questions you might have and have you on your way to spilling in no time! Our past features can be found in the news articles of 'Welcome', 'Childhood Dreams', ' Parallels ', 'Staircases', 'Déjà vu', 'Autumn', ' Phoenix', 'Electricity', 'Clockwork', 'Celebrations' (our competition), and 'Transitions'

Through the looking glass...



As we were racking our brains to think of something for this round's prompt, a bouncy `Amberlouie happened to walk by! Seeing a solution to our inspiration constipation, we :glomp:'d her and asked her if she'd like to provide this week's theme! Quick as a flash she returned with an answer, and as you can see it's as clear as...


:windows: 'Glass' :windows:


That's right, this round's theme is 'glass'. Ooh, such an amorphous prompt! So many metaphors to think about, it's up to you as to how clear you make them! Should you break some glass, or provide us with a window into your soul? It's entirely up to you!

As usual, you have two weeks to participate, which means submissions should be in by the 11th of March. Simply upload your spill and scrub as a deviation and note us with the location! We'll put you up into our list on our journal for all to see! If you're not good with dates, don't worry; if you're watching us we'll prod you with one week and one day to go!

:dance: Good luck and happy spilling! :dance:
