Writing wise, absolutely nothing was accomplished this week.  I can blame my day job for that.  It was an hour-packed week, with full days and a whole lotta commuting all over the prefecture.

Camp has started on my side of the pond. As it approached I felt less and less like to do it, granted my other pressing writing projects, but once midnight rolled around I decided to give the new story a spin anyway…and i ended up writing 1851 words in an hour! Now, I currently do…

One (hardy har) of the links I’ve seen floating around the writing world as of late is that of oneword.com, a prompt site that gives you “one word” and a minute to write everything you can about it.  While prompt sites are not unique in themselves at all, nor is the idea of using “one…
