Writing Prompts for October 11, 2009
Sorcerer's Apprenctice

Artist Date or Field Trip:
Call up somebody smarter than you and take them to lunch. What's on their mind lately?
Literary Quote of the Day (unverified from the web)
Famous basketball coach Bobby Knight once said, "All of us learn to write in the second grade. Most of us go on to greater things."
INKDrop:
So, why do you keep writing? Start a journal entry today with "I keep writing because..." and see where you end up, and then, here's the scary part, go share this with a reader. Ask them if they knew this about you. (Hopefully they're already keenly aware of your passion for our obsession.)
Connect:
Join Second Life (it's free) and check out the INKsters group there for more virtual inspiration and literary camaraderie. NaNoWriMo is coming!! Go sign up! (It's free too, except it will take your soul).
Competition idea: Grab a literate friend or two, agree on the topic today, and write. Maybe 1000 characters (fits in your cell phone notepad), or 500 words (our gold standard), or longer. Then share your work with somebody and ask them to select their favorite effort from today. You might be surprised how much you love winning (or hate losing).
And stop by our old home page and see if we've managed to catch up.
