Prompt!

[lit-gal.livejournal.com]

Okay, we had only one person leave us this week, salustra. Since she only did two weeks, no award, but you're welcome back any time, hon!  Sexymermaid and jiktajaylor both qualified for Calyspo awards this week, and those of us who started on week one, have now clinched the Clio award.  The Erato award is up next.

The new prompt is.... (drumroll please)

The early bird catches pneumonia
yeah, yeah.  I put all sorts of weird crap into my "prompt generator," and now we all have to pay. Sorry.

Okay, my muse and I want you to know that we're giving you a VERY odd look. *grins*

And the sad thing is, my muse already has plans for it. You're evol! LOL

hehe... I get odd looks all the time.

Okay, well, at least I know I'm writing Xander this week. ^_^

[lit-gal.livejournal.com]

It does sound very Xanderish, doesn't it?

[salustra.livejournal.com]

I'm back. I intended to post this week but I started having gallbladder troubles, had to drug up and lie down.

Though I'm damned if I have any idea where to go with that phrase. Should be interesting.

I'm glad you're back, and I'm sorry to hear about the health. Sometimes missing just can't be helped.

*cheers* Award! Heh. Just that much closer to the banner I covet, but ... The early bird catches pneumonia? Looks over shoulder at muses. Uhm, this might not *twitch* IDEA! *scurries off*

~JJ~

It's funny how a prompt can lead us to a story we'd never, ever write without the prompt.

Arrgh! What happened to "malleable"???

Maybe I'll try to be malleable and adapt...hmmmmmmmm.....

Heading off to try my hand at this weird(er) prompt...and I thought that Mens Rea was bad...lol

[lit-gal.livejournal.com]

Ah, when I copied, I grabbed two excel "cells," but there can be only one prompt, so I had to go with the top prompt. Sorry. Look at it this way, it will make that muse stretch and grow.

[lit-gal.livejournal.com]

Funny, because it came from an article in "Writer" magazine on how to make old cliches new again. Maybe the author to that was a Xander fan

[frk-werewolf.livejournal.com]

....Wtf. *looks up at all the other people to comment on this* How are you getting ideas for this?! It's not fair! nnooooooo!!!

*breathe* Okay... I'll be damned if I'll NOT come up with something for this. I guess I'll have to revert to my original muse: tomorrow, I'm calling my grandmother. XD

[lit-gal.livejournal.com]

Grandmothers sound like a great place to start. I'll admit this is a little odd

[articulatedream.livejournal.com]

random question as I attempt to drag my muse back into cooperation *eye twitches* did you find the prompt generator online, or did you buy it somewhere?

*is intrigued..*

[lit-gal.livejournal.com]

I actually made it. I took all the prompts from all the 100 tables that have been running around (at least the ones I liked) and then I put in lists that I searched for on line... most common Latin phrases, poorest cities in the world, a list of screwed up cliches from Writer Magazine. Then I put it all into Excel and used a formula =RAND()*(1000-1)+1 in the first column to generate random numbers. Because the first column randomly generates numbers, I can sort by the first column and get a random word or phrase to come to the top.
