1. September prompts are up at hd_seasons, so be sure to check those out. They are all so inspiring!

2. Word Wars are still happening. I played a round with vaysh11 and mijeli earlier today. We made plans for another round, but I had to leave the house for way too long and had to miss it. But I will be around late tonight (around midnight CST) and all day tomorrow. So if anyone wants to play, just leave a comment here or email/PM me.

3. I read somewhere recently that Edgar Allen Poe wrote with his cat sitting on his shoulder. Today I tried writing with a parrot on my shoulder, but it didn't work; she kept talking to me.

4. Fests are going to be the death of me. I absolutely love them, but getting the story down is torture more often than not. Still, I don't regret signing up and will probably continue to do so.

Also, thanks geinahop and zebrui for the dice :)

I'd love to participate in a word war with you! XD I use them all the time to get words out and they really work. I'd never have finished my Glompfest fic in time had it not been for warring!

I'm in PST so it looks like your war will be starting in about five hours from now? no?

How do you communicate in your wars? Do you use a messaging service or just livejournal comments?

I've been using a chat room in Chatzy. I can send you an invite later, unless there's another way you prefer to do it. I should be ready to play around 11-11:30 p.m. your time. Probably closer to 11:30. Is that okay?

Sounds good to me, do you need my email addy to send the invite? I use Adium IM which connects practically all the messengers out there, but I'm willing to explore Chatzy.

Yeah, I'll need your email. You can leave it here or send it to Igierlach83@gmail.com

Sent you an invite a few minutes ago.

[mab.livejournal.com]

I didn't get it. :( Did you send it to qumabh@gmail.com?

[nicevenn.livejournal.com]

I think so, but I just resent

I meant 10:30 your time.

I signed up for my first fest due in Oct. I know what you mean! I'm having such a problem getting it down!

*sigh*

Fests-- can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em!

Don't know if you got my tweet or not, but I should be up and writing at midnight your time (hopefully a couple of hours before). Does that mean you'll be writing at midnight, or going to bed about then? I'd definitely be up for a word war!

I got a tweet saying it would be about 10 my time...

10 would be great, midnight not so much -- I have to get up early for work tomorrow. But give me a shout, and if I'm still up we can do it.
