#75 - The End
No, it's not the end of Sunday Scribblings. The prompt this week is "the end."
And I (Laini) want to apologize to Meg and to all of you for my linking issues this summer -- I have been traveling for five weeks and was often without internet access, so I often couldn't be much help getting your links up. BUT. . . I'm home now (yay!) and I promise to do better. Faster linking, starting now!
I also have a very exciting announcement to make! When Meg and I started this site last year, my motivation was to get myself writing new and different things -- and it really worked! I wrote stories, and I loved some of them. And my husband/illustrator Jim and I got the idea to propose a collection of three of them to some publishers as an illustrated book for young adults. Well, I am so thrilled to announce that we have just sold that book, Goblin Fruit to Arthur A. Levine Books, an imprint of Scholastic. Yayyyyyy!!! It is comprised of two long short stories and one novella, each of which began life as a prompt HERE. The prompts were: "real life," "music," and "the monster." The stories are creepy, sensual, supernatural romance for teenagers and the book will be fully illustrated in the manner of a classic fairy tale book. So, a BIG tip of my hat to writing prompts, and to this wonderful community of scribblers. Yay! Thanks to all who've participated for the past 75 weeks!

Here's my Scribblings post for this week, it's the Sunday September 2nd Post:
http://roswellgray.livejournal.com
It was easy to write in the respect that it just flowed out, it was hard to write because I started crying as soon as I started writing it and didn't stop until it was finished.
Congratulations!

http://writewrotewritten.wordpress.com/2007/09/03/the-end/
I only found this blog last week or so, and was REALLY excited because I'd long been looking for some group where we can share our writing! I do a lot of mixed media art, but find that more and more the writing is creeping in, the two complementing each other. So this is just FAB!! I find I need little prompts (OK, a kick up the backside LOL!) to get going with stuff - am *so* looking forward to this!
Regards, Charlotte
Congratulations on your book being published! That is sooo exciting!
Ooops - meant to ask! I couldn't find any instructions on how to post your entry; which made me wonder if this is an 'invitation only' forum?
Regards, Charlotte

Hi Charlotte! Yes, Sunday Scribblings is open to all comers. You just leave a link to your post here in the comments section and we'll add it to the link list. Please leave a permalink (the one that goes straight to your post, rather than to your general blog). That's it -- pretty simple! If you're not sure about links you can look over what people have left up above. Join us!

Well...it would take a long time, and a lot of thinking, but I would like to do a story inspired by the Nine Inch Nails song "Hurt." That is what this reminded me of-"everyone goes awway in the end."
