Camouflage
Trying to hide didn't seem to be working out, so the next option was ...
Artist Date or Field Trip:
Army Surplus store, hardware store, kitchen supply house, automotive supply, adult book store. Go to a retail establishment you've never entered and have a good shop. What items exist you never knew about and how would they change your life?
Literary Quote of the Day (unverified from the web)
Dante Alighieri in the Divine Comedy writes, "Avarice, envy, pride: Three fatal sparks, have set the hearts of all on fire."
INKDrop:
Today we examine what role avarice, envy and pride play in our lives. They're not front page evil like we imagine they once were and might on occasion be helpful to us. Then ask yourself, if complicating issues of money, time, location, and personal obligations could be magically lifted from your life, what would set your heart on fire?
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.
