Thanks to a close friend of mine, I've discovered that writing helps me when I'm depressed. I was in a really terrible mood all night, I couldn't think, nothing distracted me. I was just extremely depressed for no reason whatsoever. Then my friend threw a writing prompt at me. I was extremely doubtful. I figured if my mind was completely empty I wouldn't be able to write anything. After a couple minutes I decided to give a shot anyways, what's the harm right? If it doesn't work then it doesn't work, if it does then I'll finally have found something that helps. I opened up a memo and tried to write. It took me a minute to get going but once I did, I wasn't stopping. I wrote for an hour. I was so focused on the writing that I sort of forgot about my depressive episode. By the time I finished writing, it was completely gone. I'm definitely going to try using this as often as I can. I've also decided that I'm going to be posting each prompt that I do, on here.

What will you do, when you have only 5 days left, before a dead-or-alive challenge happens? Rebecca is having a highly risky brain surgery next week. Time is extremely precious for her. Yet she chooses to finish reading a book, which is unfortunately mine. I am a failing writer whose stories go nowhere. There are still two more chapters to write for this book, but I am having a writer's block. I visit her in the hospital, and greatly inspired by her courage under the unfortunate circumstances. However, can I finish the book in time for her? I'll try my best. Once again, my mind flies back to the post-apocalypse world of my fiction, searching for a way to end the book properly... ...... This is an attempt to mix comedy with tragedy. Some content is quite heavy, like cancer, depression, sick patients...etc. So prepare a tissue, just in case. I wrote and posted the first 3 chapters 4 years ago, yet due to my stupidity and insensitivity, I lost a dear friend over this story, which I regretted deeply. The idea was first inspired by another friend, who gave me some first hand experience of a cancer patient. Can't thank her enough. It's totally my fault that this story was delayed for so long. It's simply too good to waste, and not fair for her priceless contribution. There are also various things inspired by different friends online, who once bared their souls to me. Sincerely appreciate their friendship. It has totally 8 chapters. Each one has about 2000 to 3000 words. Disclaimer: Everything here is fake, never happened and completely fabricated by my wild imagination. The story has nothing to do with Wattpad or any website, because seriously, nothing is real here. If someone happens to have a similar experience, that's just coincidence. Copyrights of Becca Franco, Bill Cadogan and "The 100" TV series belongs to The CW Network.
