That's a great plan, AmyLiz.
It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Oh, you guys -- thank you! I know I dropped the ball, but do you realize that (when I *was* actually posting drabble prompts), they ran for over 2 years? That's SO cool! But I also burned out. Sorry.
The LiveJournal community still exists, and if all y'all want to continue cross-posting with it, either (1) I can just re-post in LJ whatever topic gets posted here on Mondays, (2) I can add other people as community maintainers, or (3) both.
Thoughts?

Steph, you did an amazing job for two years. I am seriously impressed with your ability to come up with new ideas every week for so long.
I think having another maintainer on the community is a good idea, and if someone else wants to do it, yay! But if no one else wants to and you'd like the help, I'll step up.

Always Anti-fascist!
Would it be corny to write about "starting over" this week? And I don't mean the Burt Reynolds comedy, though I think it's funny.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Thank YOU for coming up with topics for so long, Steph!

I really loved the old pictures you chose for drabbling on.

Indeed, I'm so amazed you were able to do it for so long. Any other fic challenge type site I've seen has at least 2-3 moderators. You got stamina, girl.

Only 88 words, but I ran out of things to say.
I did not kill the bob today,
though I was sore tempted when
he laughed and said that he'd
given my name to a friend
so I could do for free
what I do to live.
Unfortunately, my hand got tangled
in the phone cord instead of plunging
down the line to grip his throat
until his eyes popped.
And the bob laughed again,
unaware of his near fate,
while I nursed my sore fingers
and cursed the little holes
in the telephone receiver that
thwarted his destruction.
