30 Days of Creativity

My friend Mr. Marrow has come up with a challenge for my dear locos and locas at project Locution. It goes as follows:

"I challenge you all to write something creative every day for the next 30 days. Every day you will then post your creation in a blog for everyone to see. It does not have to be heavily polished, but it does have to be new work. The idea is just to get creativity flowing, which I know from personal experience can be a real bitch to do."

Let's face it - I've been in a real slump, writing-wise; I've been slacking off and making horrible excuses. Sometimes they have been legitimate ones - I have been busy with school; I have had other work piling up on me. But now it's summer, I have nothing but time. Yet, I don't write. This can largely be attributed to one fact, i.e. I am a lazy bastard. So, something like this is the perfect cattle-prod for me; the perfect kick in the literary ass, that little carrot-cum-stick I need in order to actually achieve anything of merit.

And this is why I, (so help me God), pledge to post one piece of creative work every day for the next 30 days.

Alea iacta est.
