7/11. My drabbles did surprisingly okay, up against some really great writing. Drabbles are so hard, especially if you're trying to stick to the "official" word limit (which I almost always initially overshoot by some 300 words). Expressing an emotion or moment in just 100 words... it's an interesting exercise, to say the least.
I'm still surprised that what got me writing again was RPS. (I say this as if in my youth I was some kind of prolific author of epic works, but this is the first time I've been creative in writing in almost three years, so. Yeah.)

^ your drabbles. . . or how my mind works, every day?
. . . your drabbles, obvs, because if it were my mind, there'd be a lot more sex, and panic.
i approve v. v. much, in any case. you should write more~
P.S. i'm at work, now, and just as i was scrolling across the kitty-ears sreencap, my boss came up behind me. she pursed her lips, but didn't say anything. ohno looks exactly like a cat. and behaves like one as well (sleepy, hungry, in heat, bitchy, sleepy). okay, i'm not exchanging messages with you until next week, just to make sure you got everything done, dammit.
