How are we already halfway through May? Where has this month gone? Where has this year gone? June is fast approaching and I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that April was like last week. Monday and Tuesday sure felt like it anyway. Cool and wet. It has been so wet. Everyone keeps … Continue reading Time Flies

Begin at the End
Hello friends and welcome back to another week of writing prompts. How was your weekend? Not too wet, I hope. It's been very wet up here in NE. I saw a statistic the other day that said we set a record for the most days in a month with precipitation with 21 days in April. … Continue reading Begin at the End
The Endgame
Spoiler Alert: I have not seen the latest Avengers film. I did, however, live it in a wild dream last night, which I will talk about in this post. So if you have any concerns I might have precognition, consider this your warning I guess. Happy Sunday, folks! How's your weekend? Getting some writing done? … Continue reading The Endgame
New Year, Same Blog
Happy New Year! I decided to do a reflection/goals post after all. Seemed fitting to ring in the new year with a new blog post, even if it isn’t exactly a prompt. 2018 spanned at least twelve years, but we survived and we’re barreling into 2019 all fired up and ready to kick some ass. … Continue reading New Year, Same Blog
Week 31.5 The Second
Yeah I dunno how to label these. I guess I could have just kept on counting; the week numbers don't really have any bearing on the prompts. But since I made it an interval last week, I'm doubling down this week. Besides, after I get through this week, it'll be back to our regularly scheduled … Continue reading Week 31.5 The Second
Prompt 159-Introvert or Extrovert
Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert? How does this compare to how others see you? I've been pretty candid on the blog before about my introversion. Being around too many people for an extended period of time leaves me completely drained. I absolutely need that alone time to recharge and build myself … Continue reading Prompt 159-Introvert or Extrovert
Week 30
Whoops, forgot to write this up yesterday. It was my birthday though so I think I get a pass. It was an entirely uneventful day. I watched football and then my husband treated me to a nice dinner at a local Japanese restaurant. I had my first ever scorpion bowl! I'm glad I got the … Continue reading Week 30
Prompt 105-What’s In a Name
What is the weirdest name you can come up with (or know someone with)? If you had to give a character a really, really unusual name, what would you choose and what would it show about their personality? Names are weird to begin with. They’re shaped by the cultures we are born into and often … Continue reading Prompt 105-What’s In a Name
June Special: Recurring Characters
I still can’t believe I’ve written from 100 prompts this year. Some have come easier than others, and I tend to make clear which ones I’ve preferred over the ones I’ve hated. When I first started out back in January, I had ambitions of turning every prompt into a short story. As I closed in … Continue reading June Special: Recurring Characters
New format! Week 11 begins!
Alrighty ladies, gents, and enbies, I am back after my brief sojourn! What a difference a week off makes. I didn't fully appreciate how difficult it would be to write a short story every day in addition to working my full-time job and after 50 prompts I was thoroughly drained. Now, though, I'm itching to … Continue reading New format! Week 11 begins!
