In the effort to get myself writing, I realize I need some accountability. So I've turned to a friend who also has things she wants to accomplish and offered her a trade.
Tonight I have a job for you: put a new package together for your adopted soldier. Even if it's just a letter and a couple of magazines, put it together, take a picture and mail it off. Of the things that have been sliding, it's the one that impacts another person. Email me the picture tomorrow morning.
Tonight I have a job for me: I'm going to write a 500 word essay. You need to give me a topic. :) I'll send you the essay tomorrow morning.
She just sent me the best response:
Ok, I'll get a package together for [the soldier] tonight and take a pic of it. As for a subject for a short story, I'll give you three. You pick:
3. A homeless man in the city finds a scarf on a statue and it changes his luck for good.
Ok, so I was gonna give you three, but I like that one so much, I want to hear about it.
Why do I suddenly feel a little like Kathy Bates? Next, I'll be breaking your ankles.
