Of course the classic Robert Frost poem, The Road Not Taken, comes to mind with this prompt which went some little way in inspiring our choice.
What could a ROAD LESS TRAVELED be?
Options. Options, Options. Decisions. Decisions. Decisions.
A FORK IN THE ROAD: A monumental career choice?
AN EMBARRASSING MOMENT: Turning up dressed in an odd, exotic costume for a black-tie event
A MYSTERY: A trail-blazer MC, a loner, a misfit (A Jack Reacher type)
LITERAL/FIGURATIVE TRIP: Journeys to out-of-the way places, physical and/or metaphorical. A unique holiday trip which veers into another dimension. An unusual parenting or mentoring journey. Experimental music to restore mental health. An extra-ordinary lifestyle choice.
So many ways to spin this prompt. Go to...

ANNOUNCEMENT!
Hello all!
We wanted to update the page for the A to Z Post for G - Genre
J Lenni Dorner offered WEP (Write…Edit…Publish) April 7, “G” day for a post of 500 words. The WEP team currently consists of four writers – Denise Covey, Yolanda Renée, Olga Godim and Nilanjana Bose - who all write in different genres. For inspiration for today’s collaborative post, we used an amazing picture of a sign. Thanks Celia Reaves for permission to use the image.

Oooh.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to lots of exciting reading. And perhaps writing.
Hey Sue. Missed you. Would be sooo lovely if you could take part. This one should attract very different responses I think.
DeleteSo let the games begin.
ReplyDeleteYep. The Commonwealth Games are about to begin on Queensland’s Gold Coast, but WEP is way more fun to me.
DeleteI forget to say
ReplyDeleteI posted my post
On my web sight
I know I'm early but
Did I have to wait for
April the 18th night
It’s okay to post anytime Ellis, but don’t expect too many comments yet as most people don’t comment till they post. I’ll DL you soon.
DeleteI'm in. Looking forward to WEP and reading the entries. . .not sure what direction I will take on the road less travelled.
ReplyDeleteBut you’ll find one, DG. You always do. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
DeleteNot sure which road I'm taking with this one. I have a short story I already wrote that I really like and may work with part of that. Always like to participate in WEP.
ReplyDeleteWe always like to have you Deborah. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
DeleteI'm thrilled to see the sign-ups despite the A to Z challenge. Making that day's letter coincide with your posts is the way to accomplish both!
ReplyDeleteYes I hope some do that.
DeleteYolanda it's two L's but desk49 is just fine.
DeleteMy bad Ellis, I'll be more careful! :)
DeleteYou’re not bad Yolanda
DeleteSome people call me Ē-les
and other things
I won’t say here
Hi Ladies....
ReplyDeleteWhat a FUN prompt... You are tempting me. Since I am FINALLY back to writing, the novel I have just started fits perfectly with your theme... soooo I may just have to post an excerpt. Let me work on it more and I will drop back early next week and sign up...fingers crossed....
It would be sooo lovely to see you writing for us again Michael and a fun way to introduce your new WIP to the world. C’mon. You know you can do it!!!
DeleteWe're delighted to have you Jen! Normal is good, very good!
ReplyDeleteSince I'm doing to A-Z and most of my tales are pre-written, had to go back and select one not on the WEP official date. I would have loved to use the letter Q but that is too late so went with the letter F.

Thank you, Donna! This is a wonderful way to combine the two challenges!
DeleteThanks to everyone who's participating and doing the A to Z challenge too. We know how difficult that is! And thanks for visiting and commenting on our contribution to the A to Z - it was a blast!
ReplyDeleteI've posted my WEP offering already since it fits in with what I was posting for my I post for the A to Z Challenge. I know it is early but I remember reading that that's fine. Sadly it isn't a piece of writing this time, but a photograph. Looking forward to reading all the well crafted stories as they come up.
ReplyDeleteDL is added, thank you. It's a wonderful contribution!
DeleteI'm in, and have jumped the gun and gone live.
ReplyDeleteJust published my WEP submission https://notestiedonthesagebrush.com/2018/04/17/the-dark-path/
