The Business of Creating
Last night I managed to get to the 50,000 word target of my fourth year of NaNoWriMo. Huzzah! I was so pleased to have been able to get it done, two days early, and with only a couple of thousand words worth of story to go. I’m going to wrap it up today and tomorrow…

I thought it was fitting given that Gaga is renowned for having outrageous and unusual fashion to wear something outrageous…

The Evil Corporate Takeover
Or “The Importance of Paying for It” Today’s prompt it to write about an event that is about to be taken over by an evil corporate, or shut down. Please note that the opening scenario is completely hypothetical – don’t panic! Avid followers of this blog will be aware that I’m in love with…

Just three songs?!
Today’s prompt is to write about three songs that are important to you, and I’m really struggling with it. There are so many songs that are important to me, and the songs that speak to me at one point in time are different to the songs that speak to me now. I remember when I…
