Random Quote: "I'm writing a book. I've got the page numbers done." ~Steven Wright
Lately I've been thinking about writing. Okay, I think about it all the time.
*shrug*
How to write. What to write. The process of writing. How much my writing may or may not suck.

You know that an artist of any kind or even just being a perfectionist leads you to always want to be GREAT at everything you do. However, sometimes you just don't have "it". At times you just have "so-so" or "mediocre" or "What in the heck were you thinking!?!?!?!"
*twitching eye*
"It" is a process. Sometimes the really stinky stuff helps you get to the gold. It's just buried beneath all the junk, and you have to find it. I mean that almost literally, lol.

Anyway, so I'm writing for a contest over the last few weeks which has been really interesting, except for the fact that I am over the word count limit. Yeah. That happens. *shrug again* But it got me thinking about all the writing projects I have in progress but haven't had the time to finish. It makes me sad. It also makes me think of the lack of motivation I sometimes feel. You'd think that a lover of books and writing would be so happy to write ALL THE TIME! Well, I am. When the creative juices are flowing. Unfortunately, three in the morning is not the ideal time to have an ephiany of genius. It happens a lot though. And I'm too tired to even try.
*yawn*
Pathetic.
Well, I did have an idea.
*lightbulb above head*
What if you all give me prompts to help me get the creative writing process going? Just give me some writing prompts or three words to use in a short story or something to motivate me to get on the proverbial writing horse once again.
*shocked face*
So what do you got people?!?
*snicker*
I need some motivation, and I'm calling upon all of you to help me get going. Give me a challenge! Just post a comment on this page, contact me via Facebook on my author page "Rebecca Reddell" or private message me. I'll pick a few of your suggestions and post them here next week with my writing attempts and a word of thanks to the super awesome challengers!
*mental applause*
I've got some page numbers down. I'm ready for your challenge. I'm excited for the games to begin!
*best fighter face*
Bring it, faithful blog readers. Bring it.
*smirk* *nod*
~Love and Hugs!! :)
