PROMPT November 29th Imagine for a moment that you are near the end of your life. What do you want to have done that would make you feel satisfied? Traditional publication would be nice, but technically I am published, print on demand counts, it could even be profitable if I were better at self-promotion. I like the writing, I just don't sell myself well. I am happy just as long as somebody reads it. I don't feel like I need money for what I have written. It isn't that I don't feel like what I have written doesn't have value. I just feel like there are many different types of value. My father won't believe in me being a writer until I start getting a regular paycheck from it. Do I even value money? Why do I even care about being traditionally published? Is it because I feel like people will only bother to read what I have written if they spend their hard earned money on it and want their value for it? I don't know. Is being a member of WDC enough to leave me satisfied? Fortunately, I am not looking down the double barrels of death right now to know for sure what I need to feel satisfied. |
PROMPT November 28th Hopefully a little change of pace tonight. Write about something intangible: faith, magic, energy, power, or creativity. Just choose one topic, and write about it. Magic is science we haven't figured out yet. Spells are ways of demanding things of the universe. I think the idea of magic is that you are trying to force the universe to act in a way favorable to you. |
