Making Do
It was a crummy place, but it was all there was, so ...
Artist Date or Field Trip:
Find a relaxing place in the midst of chaos. What makes it peaceful? What creates the chaos?
Literary Quote of the Day (unverified from the web)
Robert Bork writes, "A society deadened by a smothering network of laws while finding release in moral chaos is not likely to be either happy or stable."
INKDrop:
Most artists, but not all, can tolerate a good deal of moral chaos, but have little patience for smothering networks of laws. What parts of your life do you allow to be chaotic, and what parts must you have orderly? Why? Do these beliefs force their way into your writing?

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.
