Maurice White and Earth, Wind and Fire May Song Story Challenge
Maurice White, a founding member of iconic group Earth, Wind and Fire, died this past February so I dedicate this month's challenge to him and his band. The songs are "Evil" and "The World's a Masquerade." Click on the links to read the lyrics.
The rules are quite simple: Write a story, minimally 500 words with no maximum, using as your prompt the lyrics of a particular song. The lyrics can inspire your tale, provide the setting for your tale or even be the background music of your tale. I have made one change to the challenge: You will have a choice of two songs sung by one artist. If you are feeling truly inspired, write two stories using both prompts!
