I was just thinking of the drabbles.

I need something to get me jumpstarted. I had all these fic ideas after Star Trek XI came out and even got a couple done, but now I'm stalled out. I need inspiration, again.

Because books.
Drabbles could be the thing. Maybe a daily drabble prompt?

I have been thinking of the drabbles lately too. I'm trying to write more, even though I still think I suck at it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, I need to fucking write something. And/or actually submit some of my better stories somewhere.

Before the Flu of Doom which has eaten the last six days, I took out an old project and started rewriting as a YA, and it was coming so easily! It was always meant to be a YA, I think, and I just didn't know it.
I have five pages so far (whoopee) but I haven't gotten much farther yet.

Yay, Amy! That's great. Good luck with the re-write.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Daily is too often for me, but I am ready to do more drabbling. I'm taking a break from writing at the moment, but I could handle that much, I think.

“Not dead yet!”

WOOOOOO Amy!
I am still stuck like a stuck thing on my current WIP, but I hope to get going again. Tomorrow, I shouldn't actually have to drive forty-seven places in one day, so I may just stay in my jammies all day and try to write.

I think daily prompts might be nice for one reason, at least: if one day's doesn't appeal, then there's a new the next day, and so on.
Doing it just once a week makes it easy to get out of the habit, I think. And no one has to do it, of course!
