mjhudston, if you haven't already visited, may I suggest you take a peek at
The Friday Challenge? Every week a new prompt is supplied... and you only have seven days to turn in your work. Miss the deadline and you are on to the next prompt, and the seven-day count begins anew.
Here is
this week's challenge:
Quote:
"What is in a name?"
A good title can make or break a story or book. Twilight would never have become so popular had it been called 544 Pages of Over-Wrought Teenage Angst and Sparkly Vampires. Sometimes, a title can even inspire a story. And that's your challenge this week. Take this title and make up the story:
"The Rabbi, the Nun, the Talking Dog, and Everything"
All we ask is that the title make sense within the context of your story.

... which reminds me that I
really need to update the "So you think you can write a story?" thread. Between the eBook signing, a few back-and-forth discussions for
STUPEFYING STORIES (more details coming soon!), and sending a pile of my other submissions to various magazines, you might say I've been a wee bit busy over the past few weeks.
