Fill: challenge #480 (original)

[A/N: I happened to see this prompt and it spoke to me--after months of not writing. It's my first time posting here. I've written about a beloved stuffed animal/comfort object from my childhood.]

---

Comfort. Safety. The trusted embrace of a friend.

Soft against my fingers, pink plush held tightly to my chest. I may not remember your name, but I'll never forget you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Challenge #480

Today is a non-fiction challenge, because writing non-fiction takes the same skills as writing fiction does: you not only need to be informative and instructive, but also engaging and entertaining.

Your challenge today is to write a bit about something you love. Not a person, but a thing or a subject, for example, your favorite childhood toy, the class you took that you enjoyed the most, somewhere you traveled that you think about when you want to relax and be happy. You could talk about the one thing you like to collect. Or you could talk about a gift someone gave you that you thought was really special. The possibilities are endless.

Focus on conveying to the reader your love of your topic and why you feel that way. It's not enough to say, "I love this thing"; you should be trying to reveal the wonders of the thing to the reader so that they love it, too.
