-
Generous please. There’s already enough meanness in the world.
-
That’s true of the world. But had you considered that a little meanness might help the short story challenge?

No idea.-
Spoons!

OK – this is really important. This is NEW, this is a TWIST and this is IMPORTANT.
The choices you have made, are making and are still free to change can have an impact on the way you write your story. However, one of the choices may have a surprising effect depending on whether I am GENEROUS or MEAN. And the surprise may not be expected. So –…[Read more]
