Hmmm....

And the journey through Middle-Earth continues, with table I as inspiration.

Well, I'll give this a try. I have written my first ever fifty Sentence challenge response. This is for May using Table four. It is a How to Train Your Dragon story called: Moment of Weakness

Mira, you stole my Gladiator thunder!



For whatever reasons, I'm having an extremely difficult time writing while living in residence... though I am hoping that I can catch up on the last few April prompts and then do all of May. I have the next four days off camp, so we'll see if I can prompt my muse into doing something, but she's being extremely lazy right now. *sigh*

Now you're just being silly, Mira.

I pray that the muses be with you - we have all missed your sentences.

Awww! That's sweet of you.

Though speaking of sentences, I do have an update - a Braveheart set (still in April's prompts, though!)

Here we go for June. I put everyone's reqeuests into the rotation, as well - so if there are any more out there, please feel free to suggest away.
