Not my turn but still...

I honestly think our next topic should be to write an alternate ending for battle star.

Leif's Topic: Free time/downtime

Leif: "well I have given some thought to what the new topic should be. So to make it vague enough that everyone can contribute, the topic is: free-time/downtime.

It could be as short as something as what you prefer to do with your own downtime or something of that nature. This topic has been on my mind lately because I have been spending alot of time gaming, and i wonder if thats good or bad."

New Topic

I know not everyone has posted to a few of the topics, but do we have any takers on a new topic? If I can I'll try to go back to one that I missed for now.

PoliFi

Ok, so I noticed that none of us have really gone in this direction so let's try out some political fiction. any kind of setting, any characters, just make it political.

Assignment 2 - Animals

Was talking with Pete, and it turns out that we're due for another assignment! So I shall be your guide and host and servant and many many other things for this one.

It's simple: write a story prominently featuring an animal. It could be a pet, an escaped animal, a speaking animal; all the characters could be animals, or just some. No quests to find one, though, that's cheating.

Because here's the thing about animals, and something I'd like you all to think about: animals think fundamentally differently than we do. They act fundamentally differently than we do. Obviously there are similarities between humans and animals (and if you want to get technical we're beasts ourselves), but I'm interested in what you all have to say about the differences. Or maybe nothing at all; maybe its just our interaction with animals that is in and of itself interesting.

Addendum: if you write some Marley and Me "I love my dog" dreck I will personally hunt you down and kill you myself. :)
