I'm putting this up early and on the fly because I didn't think things over clearly when I volunteered to take this over for the remainder of the month for brightandravenous. Not only do I have an exam to grade tonight but my novel Blood Red Roulette releases today and my publisher has me doing a ton of things. Oops.

SO anyhow I'll be back much later tonight to put in all the details of who wrote which day but I didn't want to wait until I had time for that or this thing will be going up after midnight.

So here's hoping you all had a good day of writing. (I did while my students were taking their pathophysiology exam)

Also since I might be new to a lot of you, I'm pretty open when it comes to friending me. If you want to, go ahead. It's mostly me talking about my life or my writing life. If you don't want to, no fears, these will all be public posts. If I've messed up tranferring the tally over, let me know and I'll adjust it.


Also it's World Kindness Day so be kind (and that includes to yourself) and with that in mind here's some gentle encouragement



( daily tally )

Drop your Day Thirty accomplishments here. (and late day Twenty-Nine's if you'd like).

auroracloud reminded me they had volunteered way back when to do next month's round and I did forget. My apologies. Didn't mean to forget you. However, they've been unwell (here's good thoughts for that to end quickly) and that it should probably remain in zippitgood's hands in Nov.





Since I need to be getting busy, another Halloween prompt. Set a story here.

And thanks to zippitgood for volunteering to take back over again next month. If anyone else was interested you and she can discuss it.


How about a Halloween writing prompt. This one puts me in mind of the Haunted Theatre I helped build sets for and act in. We had a little girl on the bed crying and while everyone was watching her a spring loaded monster would zoom out from under the bed. It was a thing of terrifying beauty.
