Hi Omniverse!

I know some of us do this as a hobby while others of us want to pursue writing professionally. That said I think everyone likes to improve the quality of their writing and the only way I've found to improve is through practice.

Basically I'm asking if anybody would be interested in doing weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly writing exercises. I'd post a prompt or a constraint that could be as simple as "tell me the story of a blind baker" or something more abstract such as "write a story without using the letter 'e'" I'm a firm believer that restriction breeds creativity and this would give you an opportunity to tetest your writing chops.

Naturally this wouldn't gain you any OM or anything IC, but I think it would be fun to see people write non-overse stuff.

I have next to no writing stamina but I think I can participate in this once in a while.

Biweekly.

That way, overly stressed people can do it every other fortnight and the go-getters can do it twice a month?

Sweet, I'll get some prompts cooking and I'll probably begin this thing on Monday (maybe Sunday night). We'll start with biweekly because that seems to be the most reasonable.
