Now you're splitting hairs. I kind of like the osteoporosisly furred coat or the ostentibly melodramatic fur coat. Hmmm Think I'll move on to another thought. lol |

Midnight, when you catch a breath let us know how your show is going. |

Hey all...just caught up on what you all have been up to and...WOW!....You all blow my mind over and over again. Great stories, all of them, but to comment on each individually would be more than my poor, just-waking-up brain could handle. I'm really enjoying the shorter stories. Maybe I'm strange, but I think you can say so much more with omission than with painting every little detail. Of course, those who used the 321 word count did amazing, too. |

Oh, giraffe, as far as how the show's going...it's WONDERFUL! I actually have a story about it written in my notebook from statistics class using this word list...I've got to type it up and edit it. |

Can't wait to hear about that real life experience. I've worked in theater too. |

midnight: Never should have given that 321 option..lol. This one is 321 not including title, but I'm thinking about a poem or "poemesque" approach next and it will be 123... |

Well, that was a quick turnaround. Midnight asked how we get inspiration and how we write. My writing is sparked by thoughts that leap out at me. I can sit down and knock out an idea that hits me like a bullet or it may smolder there for days and I work on it. I just got done saying I thought a poem would be next and THIS HAPPENED! |

midnight: I really hated this word list. Maybe that's why it's been chewing away at my brain and fostering some creativity. Thanks, I think |

I don't know about the others but I have different ways of writing depending on the word list. Some word lists instantly inspire me and I have to sit down and write something right away. Others I have a hard time with. The ones that I'm having the worst time with I'll just kind of try to mull over 2 or 3 of the words on the list and see where that gets me. Sometimes a sentence will come to me and I'll base the whole story around it. Other lists get into my brain and won't leave me alone. I've had times where I compose almost the whole story in my head and will go over and over it until I have to simply sit down and type it out (sometimes I have to get up out of bed in the middle of the night because my brain just won't let me sleep until I get the story out of it!). |

Doug. Jeb is excellent, but Dear Santa? Very wierd. You either have a precocious 6-yr old with a vocabulary like that, or a very disturbed college student writing to Santa about a blue binky. It's a fun read, tho. |

Correction: stangle isn't a word, but sounds like it should be. I stangled myself when I stayed up WAY too late. |

123 w/o title. This is either sick humor or pathetic. It's a mood. |

Marius. Angels. Very mysterious story - especially the title. It makes vague sense and leaves imagination open. I like that. |
