I’m borrowing old sentence starters from Colony of Gamers to try to get my creative juices flowing.
This sentence starter can be found here in its original form, and the word count goal is 150.
He overturned tables, smashed furniture, bringing to a boil the full extent of his fury.

Dennis threw down his mouse in disgust. Creating a home for his avatar wasn’t going very well.
Why wouldn’t the walls line up properly? All he wanted to do was build a snug virtual cabin to retreat to when he was tired of gaming for awhile. There was no way he could relax when he could see simulated sunlight streaming in every place walls met floor or ceiling.

He considered the possibility of a chrome cube as his relaxation retreat. Interior touches would make it his own; perhaps he could even add a unique texture to the exterior.
