It’s so brilliant… or One really great way to write something every day

by Rob @ 52 Novels on August 24, 2006

There went I stumbling through the Internet just a little blind. When I opened my eyes I found Short Short Fiction by DBA Lehane.

He uses Dictionary.com’s Word of the Day as a prompt. He plops out 500 words… unedited… first draft goodness (or not-so-goodness by his own admission).

I won’t be stealing the blog idea. I am, however, shamelessly stealing the concept.

2 Rob November 20, 2006 at 10:49 am: Don’t sweat it. Thanks for dropping by. BTW… even though you’ve stopped the Word-of-the-Day story, the idea is still brilliant!
