Saturday Centus
I know, I know. A day late. Yesterday was a pretty busy one, though, so I didn’t get around to mulling over this week’s prompt until late, and I didn’t start writing until this morning. So here it is. I … Continue reading
Saturday Centus
Wow, did I ever have a struggle with this week’s prompt. Seriously, this was hard — much harder than the awful dog photo of two weeks back. I didn’t really set out to approach these in the general way that … Continue reading
Saturday Centus
OK, we’ve got a more conducive prompt this week, thank God! Apparently Jenny Matlock selected a snippet from a song lyric. I didn’t bother listening to the song for inspiration, though — that’s what coffee is for! It’s inspiration in … Continue reading

Hoo boy. I try not to complain…but wow, do I ever hate this week’s prompt! This one is well and truly evil. Oh well, must make do. Jenny Matlock describes the assignment thusly: I’m not 100% certain, but I think … Continue reading

Saturday Centus

Saturday Centus
My second week of participation! This week, Jenny Matlock gives a normal writing prompt — but this week, she cranks down the word count to a mere 25 words, not the usual 100. Aieee! Anyway, the prompt is “the lottery … Continue reading
Saturday Centus
This is a weekly meme-thing that I always want to do on a Saturday, but which I always forget about. I suppose I could do it a day or two later anyway, but for some reason that always feels wrong … Continue reading
