Congratulations, P-C!
I don't know if I have the creativity in me to write a novel. Writing novel-length fanfic is doable, but then I have the characters already fleshed out as a shortcut. Plot is easy, then.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Congratulations, P-C!

Not yet. As disappointing as it was to get a rejection in my inbox this morning, I guess it's fair enough. I felt like I sent them flash fiction that they asked for, but looking at it after a few months, it seems that I sent them an *idea* instead. Sigh.

I still like the idea, but maybe fleshing out two women's motivations in under 1,000 words is truly a tall order or at least, I haven't mastered it.

Short fiction is tough. At least it is for me.
I wish I could work on some writing, but it just isn't in the cards right now.

I like short fiction, but that's because I'm lazy and put off writing anything substantial.
I miss the prompts and drabbles we used to do here.

Because books.
We tried them again and no one came.

I know. I miss having prompts. Maybe if we called it flash fic, instead, with a 500 word limit? Or, post a bunch of prompts all at once and peck away at them over a month or so? It was a lot of fun when we had a lot of people doing it on a weekly basis, but I think a lot of those folks have either dropped off the board or quit writing.
