Guys, prepare to take off. Task #2 is coming! Before that, make sure you work on your first task and publish the URL of your post here.

Let's recap:

---

Your task #1 still is:

---

Go to your home library. Pick a random shelf. Take the 7-th book. Open page number 7. Find the 7-th sentence and write a short poem OR a short essay based on what you have read in the sentence. Don’t forget to take a snapshot of the sentence which triggered your creativity to write the post. Include the snapshot at the beginning of your post.

Just few more hours left and we'll shut down the doors until the next edition of the contest. The original deadline is today by Midnight. So depending on your location you might still have enough time to submit your first post.
