Friday (7).jpg

What's up folks...oh yeah, it's the weekend! I don't know about you, but I've got a really great one planned and intend to make every minute of it deliver me enjoyment, happiness and a good old-fashioned fucken awesome time!

I'm here with some writing suggestions in case you are looking for something to post about over the weekend. I'll wrap up the weekend on Monday with my favourites post so please follow the guidelines below to be eligible. Post in the WEEKEND EXPERIENCES Community and follow the guidelines to be eligible for curation and the favourites post.

The inflexible guidelines

🔰 🔰 🔰

☑️ Use #weekend-engagement as the first tag of your post

☑️ Post in the WEEKEND EXPERIENCES community (no cross-posting)
☑️ Use photos you took where possible (I curate more readily for this)
☑️ Follow the community rules - Post in ENGLISH only (not multi-language)
☑️ Entries close at 06:30 UTC Monday 20 March (Link to UTC converter)


The (hopefully) interesting prompts

Don't write lengthy summaries of my questions to use up the word count, just write your post in answer to the question you choose.

🔰 🔰 🔰

What's in there?

What stuff is in your car or truck's centre console or glovebox? Take them out and photograph them to show us what they are. Explain why you have them and if they're odd things, what they do, in a post of at least 250 words. This post must contain only your own photos.

One piece

Do you have a favourite piece of clothing or pair of shoes? Take a photo and explain why it's a favourite item, you can be wearing it or just lay it out on the bed or something, get creative. You must use your own photos for this post of course and it must contain at least 250 words.

The romantic you

What is the most romantic thing you have ever done for someone. Who was it, what did you do and how was it received? Write a post of at least 300 words. It must be a true story, no fictional responses.

Saving money

Name three aspects of your life (or things) you personally spend money on but could eliminate or cut back on to save some money. List them and tell us why you chose those things, why you could cut back or go without them and why you haven't already cut or reduced them to save money. A post of at least 300 words is required.

Sexy or brainy

It's time to be honest with the blockchain...You can choose only one option only...Do you think you are sexy or brainy? Tell us which it is and why you feel that way in a post of at least 300 words. Remember, you can't be both. Use your own photos please.

Messed up

You have caught public transport to the city, alone, for a day of shopping but half way through the day you shit your pants really badly. How do you handle the situation? Write a post of at least 300 words. Make sure you title your post, I shit myself.

If you haven't read and complied with the guidelines I suggest you do - I'll probably mute posts that don't comply.

🔰 🔰 🔰


Curation may happen on posts that comply with the guidelines but only on quality original content. This is a chance to showcase yourself to the community and to find and build new relationships. It's about engagement with others as much as it's about posting content.

I realised that the hardest thing to do here on Hive is engagement, particularly when it comes to generating post great ideas for your Hive Post. However, your provision of weekend writing prompts has been of great help in keeping people active and promoting interaction among Hivers. It's great to see these engaging ideas that you've shared, and I'm eager to participate. Thank you for your efforts, and keep up the excellent work.@galenkp

I think people should focus on quality over quantity with posting or commenting, add in some passion, personality and effort and a user is well on the way.

Thanks for your words about my concept...I try to keep them interesting. I actually noticed last week that one of my topics released Friday was used as a topic for the Ladies of Hive community. I think they should have come up with their own topic and copying is in bad taste, but hey, sometimes people just can't think up stuff for themselves so have to take someone else's idea.

As for individuals, my topics are there to be written about, so if you have time and the motivation to do so, you are welcome to them.

I completely agree with you that quality matters most than quantity and adding passion, personality, and effort can make a huge difference in the engagement and impact of a post or comment.

Regarding the situation with your topic being used by the Ladies of Hive community, I can understand why you feel that way about copying ideas. However, I believe that it's also possible that they may have been inspired by your topic and wanted to explore it further from their own perspectives.

In any case, I appreciate your generosity in making your topics available for anyone to write about. Keep up the great work

may have been inspired

Yeah, some don't have the creativity to devise their own thing, so they get inspired by someone else's.

I realised that the hardest thing to do here on Hive is engagement

Engagement does not only man replying to comments on your post, but commenting on other peoples' posts and thank God, we have a lot of posts, so I wouldn't say engagement is hard.

"Engagement" is a general word that I used that encompass lots of activities done on Hive but I touched on just an aspect "idea generation for post" I did not only limit it to "commenting", or "posting" and I do agree with you, posting isn't a hard thing, but generating great idea for your Hive Post, reading others post, leaving good comments, reblogging others posts, curating, posting all takes time and seem demanding.

I love this week questions, my hand is itching to write something about it but I think I will write about my favorite pair of shoes that I have been keeping for a while. Thanks for this amazing prompt sir #galenkp, have nice weekend

I'm glad you like the topics, I hope you also have a good weekend.

Thank you

Hmm, ok I don't understand what you're saying really.

I think I just felt a hot liquid down my panties... Geez. I shit myself reading the last piece.

Well there you go, you'll have some real-world experiences to make your post more realistic.

I did only that it almost didn't touch my panties😂😂.

I shit myself lol that's caught my interest but still all other topics are worth writing so let's write ✍️.

Ok, it's your choice.

I don't have a car, but I have a box I keep in my room... Can I use it for the first prompt, instead??? Hahaha

Interesting topics this weekend again... 😁😁😁

Hmm...ok, but don't tell anyone.

Yaaay!!! Thanks☺️☺️☺️

Lol...Shh....😁

😅😂😂

Interesting and humane suggestions for writing Galen, all have an inescapable component that we are a microcosm with many stories to tell.

Thank you and have a relaxing weekend 🌴

I hope you have a good weekend also.

I chuckled when I read the last part. I know someone who shits his pants while still in his car. That was disgusting 😂.

That wouldn't be nice at all, poor car!

And pants, lol

And anyone close by.

I shit myself 😅😅 This made me laugh so hard!

I have been out for a while already! I should make one entry at least…

Do what you can...There's no obligation. Have a good weekend.

What a great songs @galenkp , I like all of them, some of them very funny!
I ask you a question, in the piece must be a single or can be two or three?

I congratulate you for your great imagination because I wouldn't have thought of the last theme.

Songs?

Anyway, I think it's best to go us on one topic and make it a great effort. Doing multiple could mean the quality suffers through diluted focus.

If only one
I mean can you wear more than one item of clothing?
Thank you!

Oh, you weren't clear. No, if you choose that topic it's one item.

Thank you very much!😀

Ha,ha,ha,ha the last suggestion is a bit funny, of course for me, for the one who passes that for sure not. thanks for this weekly initiative that motivates us to write on the weekend @galenkp

I hope you manage to find something you like...and happy weekend.

I literally laughed out loud 😂

 last year (edited) 

Yeah, it was meant to get a laugh...but let's see if someone chooses that topic.

EDIT: Someone answered it! 🤪🤣

HAHAHAHAHAHA, OMG!

I just woke up and had to read the last one several times to make sure it wasn't that my brain hadn't understood. I'm going to have too much fun reading those posts. 🤣

Have an awesome weekend ✌️

I put that one in there for a joke but...seems like someone has already chosen it and written a post. 😂

I just read it, people are insanely cool! 🤣

You have a few funny ones this week, so I'm going to go through the entries to have some fun. I'm about to post my entry.

I have seen your entry, and liked it a lot. Some good tips. Eating out can be a huge cost for sure.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. We agree on the cost of eating out. It can drain your bank account pretty fast and make the provider rich.

Yay! 🤗

Thank you @beauty197, what a kind and selfless gesture.

This week's topics are very good. I will release my participation soon. I would love to do it more often but I have run out of my cell phone..

@galenkp Greetings and happy weekend!!!

I'll look out for your entry. Have a good weekend.

What a variety of forms of expression for a weekend attentive to this daily life, thank you for these proposals, they seem very good to me, I like it. @galenkp

I'm pleased you approve. Thanks, and have a good weekend.

Happy weekend @galenkp, I think that one thing is that your topics are a source of inspiration, and another thing is the plagiarism of ideas. Here is my participation:

https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@nbarrios67/week-145-my-favorite-rock

Best regards .

Plagiarism ideas?

When I tell you about the plagiarism of ideas I mean that for me it is not valid to take the proposal of a community to use it in another as if it were yours, I believe very little in coincidences, however @galenkp this shows us that other communities are aware of what is being developed in this one, what I criticize is the lack of inspiration having an infinite amount of topics to discuss.

Ah ok, I thought so, but decided to confirm.

That curve ball at the end of the topics got my bu surprise. 🤣🤣🤣

Indeed a couple people have actually chosen it, which I didn't expect. 🤣

I think it's a tempting topic 🤣

It's a shit topic. Literally.

Promoting shitposting 🤣

Ok,these prompts are screaming my name but as the rules have it, I've got my eyes and mind fixed on one.

What a beautiful community with mind blowing engagement prompts. Can't wait to read some exciting posts.

I'm glad you found one you like. I hope you have a good weekend ahead, I'll look out for your post.

hope you have a good weekend ahead

I sure would as long as I'm around here reading interesting posts. Today I'll be stuck at home as there's voting going on in my country. It's always a bloody one and at the end of one risking his or her life to vote, the electoral officials end up rigging the election for their fave so to me, there's no need of exercising franchise anymore.

I'll look out for your post.

Anticipating your visit😌.

BTW,do have a wonderful weekend 💜.

Thanks, @galenkp for the prompts. !LUV
Boy, do I have 'the One' for this! ^^

Hope everyone is having fun and an absolutely awesome weekend! ^^
Cheers!


Hugs&Coffee,
~Josie~

I saw your post. Thank you for participating and taking the time to put together such a nice post. Happy weekend.

!LUV

I do hope to have all the time in the world to participate more in different activities in and around Hive now that I'm free from corporate world. Even though I don't really know where the time dissappears, it keeps melting away like a butter on a hot pan anyway.

Happy weekend it is indeed!
Likewise. 💚



Hugs&Coffee,
~Josie~



Time has a way of escaping us...but I hope you manage to find some and do those things you value.

Man these are confusing prompts. So many things to talk about. Let’s see what my mind does.

Sometimes, through confusion, people are inspired to think things through and by doing so the solutions often present themselves.

Thank you, I'll have a look.

Another weekend, and yes great topics to keep us engaged. Thank you always.

You're welcome, have a good weekend.

Thanks and you too.

Hello, a happy weekends to you.
Below is my post link

https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@dwixer/if-sexy-was-a-person

Hey I just came across this interesting community. I am just reading a few post and look cool, I am really into the idea of sharing this kind of content. I have a question: Are specific topics published each week or is the author free to share any kind of experience during the week ?

 last year (edited) 

Are specific topics published each week

Specific topics are published each week (like in this post you have responded to).

is the author free to share any kind of experience during the week ?

This is a community about weekend experiences, the name gives it away huh?

If a post is not a weekend experience I will mute it, probably downvote it and possibly mute the user from the community.

There are two different things going on here:

  1. The community
  2. The #weekend-engagement concept.

The community has a posting guide pinned to the top of the community feed page. I suggest you read it.

The #weekend-engagement concept has posts released each Friday with the topics, the guidelines and the deadline time for entries.

It's all pretty simple.

Ok, thanks 👍

oh my gosh. LOLOLOL I seriously laughed OUT LOUD on that last one and laughed even harder thinking about the posts that will come in with those titles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you're a nut!!!!! LOLOLOL

ok hmmmm i'm not sure which one speaks to me this weekend... hehehe will have to see what gets stirred in this brain of mine! hehehe

and now - what the heck are you up to this weekend!?!?!? hope you have a blast whatever it is!!!

I added the last one in as a joke although figured I might be the only one who thought it was funny. However, there's three entries for that one already. Mind-boggling.

I'm going to enter this week, just took the photos actually. I'm doing the what's in your vehicle's centre console.* I'll do the post now and post it when I'm done. I have a lot on in there...it's a big 4x4 so has a huge centre console. There may be a few surprises. Lol.

This weekend I'll be hiking Sunday, after a home-cooked legit AF breakfast, then relaxing, and today (after I do that post) I'm off to the mall to see what I can find. (Looking for something in particular.) I'll eat lunch there too. Later tonight I'll be watching motor racing.

I hope you also have a good weekend.

i'm having an AMAZING weekend...

tomorrow i start the "where the heck is Dreemie" contest - and people can try to "pin" me down to find out exactly where I am. hahaha

they wont' be able to do it randomly - i'll give them clues - but at the end of the week - we'll see if anyone actually knows the answer to my question of the EXACT location hehehe

shoudl be fun!

and i JUST finished my post for you - and I giggled throughout - but its scheduled for tomorrow morning.

well - 8 hours or so - probably your afternoon hehehe

hmmm wonder what you're looking for at the mall heheeh

My mall-looking item will remain a mystery I'm afraid, but nothing sinister or anything. I'll look out for your post and good luck with that concept you're doing.

I don't have a car yet, let me try other prompt.

I once have a favourite clot though

That might work.

Thanks.

Thanks to you for creating such a great initiative. Regards

Always interesting topics and thanks to this, I had a doze of laughter while coming up and creating something in response to the 6th topic 😂

Would be interesting to read what others would come up as well.

There's been a few entries for that topic, some good ones too.

Another weekend to have fun with your interesting writing prompts.

My entry coming up.

Good day!

I’m gonna enjoy reading these topics, super catchy!
Now I wonder what must’ve inspired the i shit myself prompt 👀 dear G-dog.

That topic was meant as a joke, I never expect anyone to actually put a post on their post feed with I shit myself as a title. I'd certainly not do that, but several have.

Several have indeed. Wouldn't be surprised if I get to see a true story on this prompt, lol.

Greetings. These topics create a lot of expectations for me. Here I leave my participation friend @galenkp . Thank you so much.

https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@irvinc/compensating-with-intelligence

Greetings, thanks for your entry.

Here's my entry @galenkp:

https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@jhymi/did-i-get-the-better

Have a wonderful weekend.🥰

Thanks.

https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@hive-elite/my-favorite-cozy-dress

Here is my entry for the contest. It's not encouraging to use AI while others are writing a true post

Thank you, and yeah, I downvote AI content when I see it.

im gonna make a post on Saving money so i have till money to post it

In this post there is a UTC calculator so you can work out the timing. Saying Monday doesn't work because my Monday is different to yours. There is a huge time difference around the planet, you know?

Link didn't work for me but I will work my way around it

Friend @galenkp always sobcreativoven your proposals, the one I liked, because I have a personal story is too funny and compromising, but you have brought me a great memory, not for the good, but because I will never forget in life hehehehe.

The bad thing is the title, I made me on the bus hehehehehe.

Thanks for your comment, I'm glad my prompt brought back a good memory, I hope you have a good Sunday.

Hi @galenkp and peeps of the Weekend Experiences community. Hope you are all having a fabulous weekend - 🤗😎It was my eldest's 12th birthday today so the day has been focused around him... some gifts, some cake, a friend over, and dinner out to celebrate with the family 😍 but once the kids went to bed I thought I'd drop in again and write a post in the community after seeing one from a fellow Hiver that made me chuckle. It's almost pumpkin hour here so I'll drop the link and then consider getting some shut-eye. Sweet dreams everyone and have a wonderful Sunday 💗
https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@samsmith1971/what-shall-we-do-with

Thank you for your entry, I hope you have a good night's kip and Sunday is awesome. Happy belated birthday to the lad also.
