100 Word Challenge

Every Monday we have a new creative writing challenge called the 100 word challenge.
I enjoyed this because it was challenging and fun to have to make a short story with only 100 words in it. I think this is a good writing challenge for leaning because it helps you choose your words carefully. 
This weeks prompt is ¨...And the water just kept flowing out...¨
It was the middle of July, just an average day in California. I was walking down by the dam when I noticed it had a big crack. I wonder how that appeared there? As I was observing the crack I heard the sound of footsteps approach me. ¨ Hey, what are you doing?¨ the boy asked. He had a huge rock with him. ¨ I was just wondering-¨ I was cut off by the sound of stone against wood. All of a sudden the crack burst open, the water just kept gushing out. What am I going to do?

  1. Love your first sentence Megan! Draws reader right in. It's also great how you ended with a question. I wonder what will happen next?
