You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I've done 1300 words already but I can't see where to log my progress on the NaNoWriMo page. Maybe they don't know it's November 1st yet.

edit: nebbermind, found it.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I had an idea I was wondering if you guys might like. We like drabbles, but it seems the structure kind of lost its gloss. I was wondering if, perhaps, we could base upcoming drabbles on one of the pictures posted in the scavenger click LJ. (http://community.livejournal.com/scavenger_click/profile)

For instance, the people who choose to participate in the scavenger hunt post their pictures on Sunday, then one of us chooses one of the pictures posted and that's the inspiration for the week, and do it each Sunday until we get tired of it and want to do something different.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I like it.

Eta: halfway through my daily allotment of NaNoWriMo words. This is gonna suck, I can tell. But in a good way. Um, not meaning porn. It's possible that this project is already robbing me of my ability to communicate.

Oh my god the utter crap I am writing. But I've written 2000 words! Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming... what do we do? We swim!

1800 words. Now I can go wash my dishes. Whee!

Thrive to spite them

I'm not going to do NaNo this year, but I was going to write about 300 words each day (right now I'm writing nothing) but I got distracted.

I'd like writing about the scavenger hunt pictures!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'd love the idea, myself, if the photos speak to people.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

That does sound like fun, Deena. Having a picture to start from often offers more than a single prompt for me.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I think this guy had to stay up late nights to think of reasons to be pissed. I would also like to assemble a gang of what he calls "real" writers to go shoot him in the face.

Always Anti-fascist!

(loads nail gun) You can fuck somebody up with that, and there's no recoil. A Real Writer taught me that. Honestly, I think NaNoWrimo is kind of silly(although if there was as much groping and hand-jobs as he suggests, I might have stuck with it!) But so...it's silly. Who am I? The Silly Patrol? It doesn't hurt anyone, and might help somebody come up with a good idea. I only wish I had room to let that piss me off.
