100 words! You can do it!

The [livejournal.com profile] sirius_remus100 community needs a jolt of new energy. If you ship the pups, I hereby challenge you to write a drabble on this week's prompt: wool, or last week's: scar. [livejournal.com profile] sirius_remus100 rules require the drabble to be 100 words exactly. The pairing can be obvious or between the lines, but must be Sirius/Remus. (I tend to write pre-slash myself.)

Whenever I get bogged down with writer's block, I find writing a drabble helps get me going again. It's a chance to write without having to make a major commitment to a long story. Also, the 100 word limit has been a good writing exercise for me. I have a tendency to be too wordy, so editing the length is good practice.

And this community is just right for me. Each week, a new prompt. Each week, I can write if I feel inspired, pass if I don't. There's no commitment, no pressure.

Doesn't it sound just right for you too?

Don't let [livejournal.com profile] sirius_remus100 die; get out there and write, people!

Heh, thanks. In fact, I couldn't let it be and wrote my first drabble. Never did this before. I will probably post it tomorrow and let you all tear it apart. *lol*
