Very loose survey – What sort of writing would you like to see more of?

* What sort of settings do you enjoy reading when I write them? What sort do you wish I’d write more of?

* what length stories do you enjoy reading when I write them?

* What plots do you enjoy/wish I wrote more of?

* What characters do you enjoy?

Feedback bribe: 50 words in your choice of setting if you answer at least two of these with more than one-word answers! 🙂

Policing, a drabble for Monday Morning

“And then I said… pow! That’s what I’m going to do!”

“Excuse me, miss. We’re the hand gesture police. I’m afraid that’s an illegal gesture.”

“What? You’ve got to be kidding me. That? That’s nothing but…”

“Miss, miss, please stop. I’m willing to let you off with a warning, but you’ve got to keep your body language in check.”

“My body language, not just my hand gestures now? What’s this world coming to?”

“Anne, just drop it, please. You’ve always been a bit… exuberant. Especially on Mondays.”

“Illegal touching, Miss, do you have a signed consent form?”

“What, wait, what?”

The March Giraffe Continuation Poll is here – http://aldersprig.dreamwidth.org/317893.html

The poll will remain open until this story comes up in my task list (it’s currently one of five, so it will come up between now and the end of tomorrow).

Alder by Post…. feedback wanted

For the first three issues of Alder by Post, I riffed off of the theme of the month or a theme that came up within the writing.

But going into the next Alder by Post, I realize that the short and strange nature of the March Giraffe Call leaves me bereft of ideas.

Anything, any setting, any anything you’d like to see? Any ideas for making it thematic? 😀
