Okay, it looks as if most everybody wants to do a 6x6? So, basically, the idea is simple. Let's pick a start time (this weekend?) and aim to write a story (flash is fine, short story, heck, if someone wants to do poetry, that would be fine. Just write, okay?) each week. So aim at... Sunday, March 10? Send in a sub to the list by or on that day?
Do we want to have a theme, or prompt, or something like that? I mean, I can pretty easily dig up something (take a look at https://www.reddit.com/r/WritingPrompts/ ) and sometimes it's easier to respond to a prompt. Not required, just an aid to help.
Right now, it looks as if Dale, Michelle, Nora, Anthony and I are likely to join in this exercise in crowd-sourced creativity! Even if'n you didn't say anything, if you want to join in, go for it! Write it up, and send it to the list!
Target Dates:
1st sub: March 10
2nd sub: March 17
3rd sub: March 24
4th sub: March 31
5th sub: April 7
6th sub: April 14
So we'll be done in time for taxes? Something like that, anyway. Let the story telling begin! Huddle around the fire, and watch out for the ghosts and ghoulies that go bump in the night, right? Or is there a dead body in the kitchen (no, not for cooking! For a mystery!). Blast off for Mars? Who knows, but here come the stories of our bunch...
