Purple Prose Throw Down

I just drank a whole lot of water and I’ll be moderating chat at the top of the hour.

So, before I have to run to the fluid exchange center or unlock the chat room doors, I thought I’d write a quick post.

I have to re-think my Writerly Wednesday Posts because instead of reaching my goal of helping authors help themselves by guesting I was ending up in a mess of Customer Service Complaints about links that didn’t get attached to covers and how the page didn’t display just right. It was a freely given guest spot.  I am not a professional page setter-upper…

Writerly Wednesday was supposed to be an opportunity for both the Guest and Hostess to increase his or her fan base.  You know, find new readers…

I was offering a service of sorts and for the most part I enjoyed it. So, until I can make Writerly Wednesday more of a two sided affair I am going to try posting whatever comes to mind.

To all of my Guests who behaved beautifully, thank you.

purpleNow, for this Wednesday’s Post…
Because I am moderating The Writer’s Chatroom, tonight let me challenge you, my kind readers, to copy and paste some of your Purple-est Prose.
That’s right, even if you can’t make it to the chat room – bring it on!
Serve up your most overwritten prose from the nearest file you have on your hard drive or from the ‘cloud.’ Since you are showing your worst, no one is going to judge.
I am Throwing Down the Gauntlet, whatever that means, and inviting you to post your worst.
This is the link to the chat room topic.
