1_million_wordsHi all you original writers out there! I know I missed an entry for July when my calendar wasn't sending me reminders, so I can only apologise for that. I am back on track now and seem to be getting the reminders again *crosses fingers*.
So, today, who wants to play a little writing exercise game? I know we did a challenge last time around, and that went very well for some of us... (yeah, not me, unfortunately).
How about a drabble or comment fic in one of your own universes? Give me a shout if you want to play and I'll find a random prompt for you (if you need it). If you join in, write your words and link or post them here, so we can all read them. If you'd rather just add to something you're writing in that 'verse, go for it - sharing an excerpt would be nice, but not required if you'd rather not share.
Let's say... any time this week. Track this post if you're joining in, then you can see what others come up with before next Sunday!
The stories I have that I'd be willing to work on are: (gay) Victorian vampire story, Future Earth after the apocalypse (more men than women), NZ future story after a flu decimates the population (gay protagonist) (yeah, there's a kind of theme going on here, isn't there?), English public schoolboys with a secret (yes, there's sexual confusion here), or NZ coming of age story (featuring some abuse, so a little dark in places).
Anyone can ask for me to add to or write something short within any of these universes; even if you're not writing yourself. Just give me a random 1-2 word prompt and choose one of the above stories, and I'll see how many I can play with over this week. I'll extend the time if a lot of you prompt me and I feel the need!
