Is there in truth always beauty? Or can a little lie be kinder? There’s an art to story telling of all kinds, so I’m asking … does this font make my ass look f a t?
Be a writer … Lie To Me.

"But ... We thought you were dead!!"
From Ulysses to Bilbo, just when everyone thinks they’re dead … here they come strolling down the garden lane. So, here’s your chance to resurrect somebody. Make it funny or frightful, giggly or ghostly, an Ah Hah! or an Oh No … Or just maybe your character would prefer to play dead afterall.

The Drabbler has been on a vacation from fanfiction experiencing real life.
Drabble challenges will resume September first.
Which is my way of apologizing for the inconsistency of posting, lately. As some of you know, I went back to work full time in January for the first time in ... oh let's see ... 10 years (!) so I've still not got the hang of this work/family/personal time balance thing yet ...
Of course, anytime anyone else has a suggestion for a challenge, you can send it to the Challenge Admins or post it here. _________________ NB Duchess of WHY TF Cant'chu Punctuate, First Duchess of F*&(ing &*ll yur comma placement sux!

Oh my, Nancy! It makes my five years pale in comparison! I do hope you find a nice middle. I have to know it's possible. LOL

I hope it is possible to find the balance. I started taking college classes again last fall after a 13 year hiatus, and I'm still having trouble with the balancing act. I add my apology for my lack of participation lately. _________________ 'I wish life was not so short,' he thought. 'Languages take such a time, and so do all the things one wants to know about.'

Nancy really is awesome, isn't she.
Signed,

You are all too kind ... in fact you're most kinds (YUK YUK YUK).
Anyway, now that fall is here and I get a few hours every saturday in which to putter about in interspace, the CHALLENGES ARE BACK!!
With one change: I'm only going to be posting every two weeks, so as to have time to think up more challenges and, I hope, respond to a few.
So, hope on over to the new challenge thread right here in this very forum topic, and check out the first challenge of the new fall season!!
I hope it inspires you. _________________ NB Duchess of WHY TF Cant'chu Punctuate, First Duchess of F*&(ing &*ll yur comma placement sux!
