So, I dunno. This is either quite cool or kinda dumb.
Overcome Writer’s Block with Plinky
Plinky: A Tool for Writer’s Block
Each weekday, Plinky.com provides a prompt — usually a question, or a request like “describe your favorite vacation” — and you type in an answer. Plinky is great for those days when you want to write, but have no idea what to say. Think of it as a way to fuel your creative mojo. Best of all: It’s really easy to share your answers on your WordPress.com blog.
There is some discussion on the WP thread that blog writing should be about quality rather than quanitity, blah, blah … which of course is true. But I think it’s also true that a little nudge can start the old creative juices flowing again. Also, it depends on why you blog and what you blog about. I’ve signed up and some of the prompts are actually kind of interesting, though I must admit that most of them leave me uninspired.

I vote dumb. However, it will likely be tremendously popular because what do I know?

My posts tend to start out as orations in my head about something that’s renting space there. Since I spend most of my time alone, or around people who are paying me to deal with *their* issues, it’s enjoyable to have a place where I can say what’s on my mind (even if it’s trivial) and sooner or later someone will let me know they actually heard me.

I think mine often start out similar to yours, Sled. The main difference is that I’ve made it a personal “challenge” to post something every day. I can’t remember when that started, but I quite like having that there as the one thing I make sure to get done each day. Even if it’s just a quiz or something like this. And because this blog is just my personal scrapbook kind of place, I can imagine sometimes using Plinky on days I am stuck for an idea. Like the one I saw yesterday … Defend Your Vice. Watch for it. 🙂

I wouldn’t know how to pick which one to defend. I suppose bonking younger men is all the rage now.
