Be the change you want to see.

I'm having trouble writing more than tiny bit of stuff on quora. I guess I'm doing well with that, it feels like being helpful, and it's more feedback and validation for me as an author/internet auntie.

I keep reading, fine. Right now I'm studying R. Cooper's novels (Kindle lets me highlight! and write notes in my copy!

But my stories are languishing. It's more that I want to WANT to be writing, or that I feel like I need a task mistress (shush you now, I don't think I swing that way, but don't rule it out.)

Opinions? Suggestions? I have ideas, I know what I want to do, I just haven't been making myself do it unless challenged. Ie, Tumblr's post saying "if you're reading this, go write 3 sentences on your WIP!"

Like, that's engaging, and low stakes. Plus I have at least 3 WIP's.

Raaaar!

Here's an offer to all you bored Residents of Internet out there.

I'm hijacking a meme from a much more accomplished writer cadhla, and offering it to you wholesale.
(oh, and btw go read cadhla, she's a local girl and a hell of a songsmith!)

Post a comment with three words and I will dust off my creative writing skills in an attempt to use your three words in some kind of creative writing project, whether poem or ficlet is yet to be determined, also let me know if you have a preferred format (type of poetry, drabble, ficlet, short story, preferred fandom?) and I will see what I can do.

I make no promises. I tell only the lies the Muse whispers sweetly in my ear.
