prompt ▶︎

WDC Birthday Week continues with a prompt about a subject near and dear to my heart (and liver).

21 is the legal drinking age in the United States. Write your story or poem about someone who has a positive experience with their first legal opportunity to drink an alcoholic beverage. REQUIRED GENRE: Friendship (That is, in order to qualify, your entry must be written in that genre, and you must choose it as one of the genres.)

Please Note: The Writer's Cramp accepts items of any Content Rating, but to follow WDC guidelines, any items with a mention of alcohol or alcoholic beverages must have a minimum 13+ rating.
