Vagabonds: Anthology of the Mad Ones Vagabonds Vol. 3 | страница 77
“Wow! What a ride!” Indeed! Now that we’ve come to the end of the issue (hopefully not skidding
broadside into your grave quite yet), it’s only appropriate to prepare for what comes next. And why
not be a part of it? This here is a little game to play, and we want you to join in. Below is a
juxtaposition of symbols. Within this image is nebula of creative expression, limitless potentialities
of heartbreak, nonsense, adventure, you name it. These symbols are waiting to be woven into a
story, and the other editors and I are waiting to devour your imagination. So get a pen and some
paper, perhaps even get a group of friends together, and create a story using each of the symbols.
Each time you weave one of the dice into the story, place an asterisk (*) after the word so we can
keep track of them.
What story do the dice tell, what does each symbol mean? That is for you to decide – how the
symbol works into your story is rather loose, it doesn’t have to be literal so long as it relates to the
an interpretation of the symbol. For example, a lightning bolt doesn’t have to be lightning, it could
be Zeus if you wanted it to be. Or the Flash even if that suits your fancy (that’s one of those comic
book hero guys, for those of you not in the loop).
So have fun, be playful, be creative, and share with us!
Send your tale of the story-dice to us (hitchingpoets@hotmail.com), and we will publish our
favorite one in the next issue.
Ciao!
