I'm still here, still writing (praise be), but I do think a lot of the audience/participants are elsewhere.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I just don't have the time or energy for drabbling. Wish I did, that was fun.

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?
Or some combination where some prompts are reserved for drabble and others for flash fic.
I would participate. Selfishly. Writing in front of this talented group of writers forces me to be better.

Exactly. And it's go at your own pace, you don't have that pressure to DO IT NOW. Well, that may have just been me.

Because books.
Mondays are my day off -- I'm happy to post prompts on Monday, some for flash fic and some for drabbles (although I think drabbles work better for this board particularly). I miss writing them, too, although I'm never as good at it when I'm the one prompting!

You know what? I will make an effort. Mondays could use some kind of structured break to think about not-work.

I'd be happy to knock out a few drabbles.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'd participate. I need a shove to get going on writing again.

Because books.
I'll brainstorm prompts during work tomorrow.
If they're all related to butter, sugar, or bread, I plead not guilty.

I'm fine with that.
