Go to http://www.threewordwednesday.com/ and find the three words for this week. from the site: Three Word Wednesday gives writers, poets and those who journal a mid-week jolt of creativity. Each week, three words are selected; you create something with the words. Then come back and post a link to your contribution. The idea is to create an online writers' collective, where feedback is offered and received. All rights to the contributions rest with the author. This is a place to stretch your muse, test your dreams. Get writing, you.

Write the script for a conversation with your long lost friend Toska, who deals with 'a dull ache of the soul, a longing with nothing to long for, a sick pining, a vague restlessness, mental throes, yearning.'.
