"Write!" Teresa said to me, "Write whenever you can! Start a blog. Something!"
So...I'm going to start doing short writing prompts on here to stimulate my writing-juices once again. I miss the creative release...and no amount of Piggies & Paws, or making headbands satiates that need.
I'd love to say that I'll do a prompt a week...but I'm no fool. It's hard for me to stick to schedules. So I'll just commit to doing it when I feel like doing it. How's that for non-committal? *smile*
So...I found this prompt on Writing Fix and really thought it was pretty rad...so here goes..
