Monday Matchup Writing Challenge: Get your favorite song lyrics out…

Here’s a bit of a different spin on our usual Matchup today ...

WRITING PROMPT:Monday Matchup #7—Tunes As Muse
Feel free to take the following prompt home or post a
response (500 words or fewer, funny, sad or stirring) in the Comments section below.
By posting, you’ll be automatically entered in our
occasional around-the-office swag drawings.
If
you’re having trouble with the
captcha code sticking, e-mail your piece and the prompt to me at
writersdigest@fwmedia.com, with “Promptly” in the subject line, and I’ll
make sure it gets up.

Take two of your favorite songs, and match up a line from the chorus of
one with a line from the chorus of the other. Then, write a scene that
starts with the first lyric, and ends with the second.
