It's quiet in here. ::blows dust off the library tables::
Anyone writing anything new? Anyone making writing resolutions for the new year? Anyone excited about a new project, or an old one?
Bueller?
And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

Because books.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Uh, yeah. My resolution is to *remember* that I took the drabble topics back from Lee.
D'oh.
I'll just wait until Monday, since it's more or less the end of the week now, and start fresh with a new topic. Maybe I'll even write it on my calendar.
Again, d'oh, and a thousand apologies.

No apologies needed! It was Christmas, babe. A holiday.
For some reason -- probably because I'm procrastinating and feeling very unhappy with the book I'm working on -- I'm just jonesing for some good writing discussion.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Sadly, my resolution is the same as last year's--to finish my new play.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I've started a newish project. Almost through the first chapter. And I guess I've got something of a resolution - 250 words a day, on average. It doesn't sound like much, but if I try for more than that I'll get discouraged the first dry day and fall too far behind. Been doing it a week or two, and it's been feeling about right.
This is the first I've told anyone about it.

I'm supposed to be writing a pilot. I'm still trying to figure out what the hell I'm going to write.

Do they give you any kind of guidelines or just tell you "Write something"?

It's supposed to be used as a sample so I can write whatever I want. So, ideally, it should be something that reflects who I am as a writer. I'm still trying to figure out what that is.
Though Allyson said, "You like fashion...you like grisly murder." I should find a way to make those two work together.

"The fresh blood spattered across the milk-white velvet gave Marco the idea for the printed fabrics that would make him world-renowned at the next Fashion Week."
Or it's an entry for Bulwer-Litton.

I once had an idea to do a short for YouTube spoofing Numb3rs. It was called Sho3s and it was about an FBI agent whose sister helped her solve crimes.
The sister worked in the shoe department at Neiman Marcus.
