Yep, it’s me and I feel like posting some prompts to give me an excuse to do some writing. As such, write a drabble of 100 words or less about the moment in your life when you were happiest.
Death is a touchy subject for many people. In the days of the Comic Code, and throughout much of Disney’s career, the word was anathema, and even showing someone dying was forbidden. Even today, it’s hard to talk about death sometimes.
Of course, that doesn’t stop us from asking you for today’s 100 word drabble subject: write a drabble about a character talking about death, without saying it.
Those of you who’ve completed the Winter Bingo have been waiting patiently, and we’d like to see what you’ve come up with so we can award prizes. Link your Drabble post to our Livejournal main post and let us know if you’ve done an entire card or a line, as well as whether you completed the Cupid Challenge for an extra entry! Post your entries by April 30th; winners will be announced on May 1st!
Whew. So, you might’ve already heard that we’ve been working on a side project that has gotten a lot of attention. So with this in mind, how do you roll? Me? I roll twenties!
Less than a month till the end of bingo! Congrats to folks who have finished (going for a second line or card? :) ) and there’s plenty of time left to those who are still working on it. If you haven’t snagged a card yet, check out the rules and grab yours here.
Shameless plug for those of you who may be wondering what the heck is going on with those people anyhow - http://roll4itdice.com/ - we’re forming a dice company (a subsidiary of our main Lab Arc LLC). You can find our dice in person at some stores already (like Game Paradise in Indiana :) ), or in our Etsy store. We’re working on getting online ordering up and running on the domain. Our first in person appearance will be for Free Comic Day May 2nd at the NJ event run by Farpoint Toys / Level Up Entertainment.
