You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Because books.

I've been finding that I really miss some fun, no-pressure word play like that. And I've been getting the daily prompts from Figment but most of them are too complicated for a simple half-hour exercise.

And I'm having a really hard time figuring out the story for the new proposal, so I want to do something to get my brain moving. Or something.

Anyway, yay!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh, do. I am swamped, but I can use the practice.

ETA: You might want to put it in Press.

Because books.

Oh, good call. Thank you!

Oh, this is a great idea! I threadsucked the GWW threads and read through all the drabbles and missed the quick bursts of creativity they inspired.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'd like to do drabbles again too. Good idea!

Trust my rage

I am not a writer but I loved reading drabbles

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Amy, had you thought about cross-posting to the GWW LJ comm? It's still there, I think. And we got some cross-polination from it. I have no investment either way, just mentioning it.

Our wings are not tired.

Amy's post in Press reminded me that I haven't been here in a while. I'm not a writer and yet the drabble fun sucks me in to the point of participating from time to time.

Also, since I just read the recent stuff - Woos and Hoos for Dana and Sox!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I wish I still thought I had that part of my head. I don't know what I did with it, though.

Maybe it'll wake up.
