August Writing Challenge

[Image: giphy.gif]


Hark! This month's Writing Challenge is brought to you by my obsessively watching all of the clips below on repeat for the past few weeks.

Hamlet ft. Andrew Scott: One | Two |
Hamlet ft. Paapa Essiedu: one

Midsummer Night's Dream

Onto our challenge! S/O to BF for helping me since he knows Shakespeare better than I do. Also Google. You must use one of the following phrases in either a thread title or in a post:

  1. All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts.
  2. The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
  3. Get thee to a nunnery.
  4. If music be the food of love play on.
  5. Cry “havoc!” and let slip the dogs of war
  6. Love all, trust a few
  7. Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown.
  8. Frailty, thy name is woman.
  9. I am one who loved not wisely but too well.
  10. We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep.
  11. Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once.
  12. Et tu, Brute?
  13. Lord, what fools these mortals be!
  14. Young men’s love then lies, Not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes.
  15. I am a man more sinned against than sinning.

If you have any other quotes in mind, please feel free to use them! If you choose this option, please lmk the title of the Shakespeare play xD

All posts must be from threads set AND started during the month of August to qualify.

A like from one of my accounts means you’re set
to take this beauty home—no need to post in Stamp Station:
