I finally found the time to read a few freewrites this week! I enjoyed "Stars" by @fleurinna. As the story explains, dreams are important, but sometimes being content with a simple, satisfying life is also a good thing. https://steemit.com/freewrite/@fleurinna/stars-freewrite
@simgirl's Caterpillar freewrite just made me laugh. I never thought about Alice's food cravings while in Wonderland. https://steemit.com/freewritecontest/@simgirl/day-234-5-minute-freewrite-sunday-prompt-caterpillar
And @brisby's caterpillar story also made me chuckle. I loved reading a freewrite from an animal's perspective. https://steemit.com/freewrite/@brisby/accidentally-making-a-friend

Let's see if your winning streak continues :)
I did want to give @grayarty's freewrite a shoutout. For some time all I've heard is "My free writes aren't very good" and so I decided to read this one https://steemit.com/freewrite/@grayarty/freewrite-prompt-a-smiling-house#@grayarty/re-kaerpediem-re-grayarty-freewrite-prompt-a-smiling-house-20180611t061618177z and I have to say I enjoyed reading his free write. I don't want to say too much incase I take the thrill out of it, but If you like weird and spooky, with a little twist at the end, then do check it out.

thank you for participating!! good luck!
I read this freewrite by @malloryblythe using the prompt wet and I feel that her story has all the elements of a great story with good characterization and suspense building. I felt the terrible anger and disappointment the character felt when she realized she struggled so much to make it to an interview sacrificing time and money only to discover that she was duped into attending a rotton sales pitch instead of a real job interview. The set up and tension was very well written and her topic one readers everywhere can identify with.

I could really feel that anger too when I was reading that story!!
Thanks @freewritehouse!
I tried to find one that brought happiness when I read it. Although it started off sad, this story really takes the cake to a beautiful comeback. Just reading the turn of events that happened and how strong this beautiful person is, inside and out, I would place @wandrnrose7's story 10 times if I could. She bravely talks about painful events, and then goes to the beautiful people who came into her life. her lesson is, hold on to the good things because they could be gone in the blink of an eye.

We encourage to go over 50. Just don't go under...
I wanted to share We are all champion once (5-minute Freewrite: Prompt - Quadrillion, written by @iamjadeline.
This is the sweetest freewrite. I don't want to give the story away because I feel that you should read it for yourself to get the full affect of the message. I'm not sure if this was true or not, but it is a touching message and I know it will stay with me always as it has with her if it is true.
I think that we all need to know that we were all champions once and I believe that no matter what you do in life, knowing you made it this far should always feel like an accomplishment no matter what you have to go through to get here.

Good luck!!
This was a great story. Even though it's short, @felt.buzz really captured the feel of the characters involved in the dialogue with comical/somewhat quirky personalities. I loved the whole vibe and the "no need for language like that" and then the last sentence. Perfection!
It almost had a feel of the show that I love called "Mrs. Brown's Boys" that is just such a realistic fun comedy. :)

Today I would like to bring attention to @brisby's #freewrite on the prompt Depression. I believe this was a very tough prompt for most of us, and @brisby's story was no exception. I'm pretty sure we all know someone that may be suffering from depression, whether it's a close friend, neighbor, or family member. We try to reach out and maybe it helps for a few days, but make sure you check back with these people if possible, because it's not cured overnight. 🙏

That was a very powerful story. That prompt really brought lots of deep stories out. And it was a total coincidence that it was there right when the two celebrities took their own life... Weird how that sometimes works out.
Quiero recomendarles la entrada de @inter27 aquí les dejo el link:
https://steemit.com/freewrite/@inter27/spanish-freewrite-no21-tema-caterpillar
Me llamó la atención esta entrada porque 1) es un nuevo escritor para el proyecto en español y 2) por el tema de ese día "caterpillar".
Resulta que el explica una información muy interesante sobre gusanos, y al leerla yo me preguntaba ¿donde esta el tema de hoy?... pues aquí donde yo vivo "Caterpillar" es sinónimo de maquinarias industriales, también es un "color" aceptado coloquialmente como cierto tipo de amarillo... pues me sorprendió cuando mi esposa (que habla inglés) me dijo que caterpillar es también un tipo de gusano u oruga... Vaya, así que el escritor estaba en lo correcto. Albert Einstein mencionó alguna vez que todos somos ignorantes, lo que ocurre es que no ignoramos las mismas cosas. Pues a mí me paso en esta oportunidad... Un saludo a @inter27 por su publicación y gracias.
I want to recommend the entry of @ inter27 here is the link:
https://steemit.com/freewrite/@inter27/spanish-freewrite-no21-tema-caterpillar
This entry caught my attention because 1) is a new writer for the project in Spanish and 2) for the theme of that day "caterpillar".
It turns out that he explains very interesting information about worms, and when I read it, I asked myself, where is the topic today? ... Well, here where I live "Caterpillar" is synonymous with industrial machinery, it is also a colloquially accepted "color" As a certain type of yellow ... I was surprised when my wife (who speaks English) told me that caterpillar is also a type of worm or caterpillar ... Wow, so the writer was right. Albert Einstein once mentioned that we are all ignorant, what happens is that we do not ignore the same things. Well, it happened to me in this opportunity ... A greeting to @inter27 for its publication and thanks.
