Inspiration Monday: Extra Strength

  By

Computer crisis averted! Well, dealt with. I’m back and running with all the important files intact. I really can’t stress enough how important it is that you back up all your files. Preferably some kind of automatic backup you don’t have to remember to do. I use Evernote (free) for notes and Carbonite (not free, but worth it) for docs and everything else. If it worked for Han Solo, it’ll work for you!

In other news, veteran InMonster Kay Camden has just published her first novel. Go check it out.

And two lovely InMonsters have managed to create something this last week of NaNoWriMo!

The Rules

There are none. Read the prompts, get inspired, write something. No word count minimum or maximum. You don’t have to include the exact prompt in your piece, and you can interpret the prompt(s) any way you like.

OR

No really; I need rules!

Okay; write 200-500 words on the prompt of your choice. You may either use the prompt as the title of your piece or work it into the body of your piece. You must complete it before 6 pm CST on the Monday following this post.

The Prompts:

EXTRA STRENGTH

THE ONE WHO LIVED

BURROW

FARADAY

SUBSTITUTE PEOPLE

Inspiration Monday: Premember

  By

Just a couple of InMonsters this week – I’m guessing due to post-Voice Week exhaustion? Or maybe mid-NaNoWriMo busy-ness? No matter. I am glad you are still writing!

Meantime, I think you’ll find these two quite enough fun to tide you over till next time.

Inspiration Monday: Universal Door

  By

Voice Week was a huge success! I’ll give a complete recap on Friday, but for now, take a load off and bask in the joy of it all being fantastic. Unless you’re doing NaNoWriMo. Then you better be pounding on that keyboard.

Here are some excellent sources for procrastination inspiration! Prompts further down for more. : )

Inspiration Monday: Brilliant Superstition

  By

Okay, folks. Voice Week starts one week from today, which means this week’s prompts will be good for two weeks – I won’t be posting any prompts during Voice Week.

There’s still time to sign up for that, by the way! We’ve got a good crowd of about a dozen, so we’re set up for a good time already, but there’s definitely room for more. I should note my Internet access will be unreliable for part of this week, but I will catch up with anything I miss by Monday.

Oh, look! Some tasty tidbits to inspire us for next week!

Inspiration Monday: The Man in the Radio

  By

Went to a library book sale over the weekend (I know, drool!). Check out my haul!

BookSaleHaul

In total, 21 books for $18. And David at The Warden’s Walk will be pleased to know, all those on the side are Rosemary Sutcliff – even though most of them are paperback, and even though I already have Eagle of the Ninth. Because when it’s a dollar or less and somebody as smart as David raves about them, you’d better grab them. Here’s a close-up.

BookHaul2

Now to the task of removing the library trappings and the ensuing excessive stickiness!

Meanwhile, you can read some other fiction absolutely free:
