Hey Yvette! What's shaking? I know you haven't been on here in quite a long while, but I thought I'd come bother you about microfiction for the MMM circle.
Hi Yvette, haven't seen you in a while. How's the writing going? Hope you're still working on that novel.
Stewart, stop breaking the scratchpad format
It's this circle: http://www.scribophile.com/circles/detailing-shop/ You'll have to write on mamapolo's scratchpad for an invite.

Great minds think alike, right?
if i haven't read chapter 2 within five days, tell me. i have to work all day saturday and sunday, so i might forget about it. and i wander around this site, critiquing whatever catches my eye. i really wanna see where you're going with this story.
Thanks for the crit!
Thanks for the karma. Believe it or not this kind of thing has happened to me before. I tend to take my time writing crits (that one took me an hour and a half) and in the meanwhile they fall of the queue. It happened here too, so I contacted scrib about it. They usually give the points back. Although I don't know how they would feel about the bounty, so your generosity makes life much easier for them and me.
Thank you again.

Thanks for the encouragement. That sentence you posted is wonderful in its absurdity by the way. My boyfriend suggested that I keep a small notebook around me at all times so I can just write when I'm inspired instead of sitting down in front of the computer of mind-numbing doom.
Re: absences. Don't stress. Just keep a running tab and post it when you return. It seems we have a few Yankee Doodles (or near YDs) and of course the holiday itself will take some time. Just make sure you don't break your promise to yourself.

About Yvette

Occupation: Student journalist and aspiring novelist. But aren't we all the latter?
About Me: I've been bouncing around creative interests my entire life. I eventually settled on journalism and it's my greatest passion. Discovering it has led to me rediscovering my love of creative writing. I'm new to both but determined as hell.
Interests: Journalism, writing, reading, digital art, politics, philosophy, video games, animation, did I mention reading?
Favorite Quotes: Voting is easy and marginally useful, but it is a poor substitute for democracy, which requires direct action by concerned citizens. - Howard Zinn
Loves: Video games, animals, the cold, and a good book
Hates: YOUR FACE.
