The Prompt


You must incorporate the prompt in either your opening line, or title. It must be featured word for word, although you can make this part of a longer sentence.


“Have you ever been to the planet they call Utopia…”



Utopia is a very subjective place, and Utopia for one man, could be dystopia for another. I am looking to hear the tale of someone who has visited a planet widely referred to as ‘A Utopia’. You can tell me this tale in any way you want.


If you are looking for more ideas, some of the questions I have pondered on, that you may want to answer include:
- Why visit? Is anyone allowed to just visit?
- Why is it known as utopia? Does everyone agree that it is?
- Did your character agree it was a utopia? Why/why not?
- Why did your character leave? Or did they stay?
- Why is your character telling the story?

I am really looking forward to reading your entries.Good luck, and don't forget to include a link in the comments!
