Write Over The Hump

If you’re just joining “Write Over The Hump”, know that you can change pronouns and names as you wish. Most importantly, don’t edit, don’t stop once you start writing, and don’t plan out what you will write. Just let the words flow. If you’ve never written like this it may take a few weeks to get used to it, but if you stick to it, you’ll be amazed at what will start to come out. Get a timer, set it for 10 minutes, read the prompt, and write! This one smacks a bit of that old show, Twilight Zone…

This week’s prompt: In the deep dark of the night, the portrait moved.
