WIP challenge, day 9!

Day 9... we're almost in double digits! Tell us how it's going today:

a poll; are you surprised? )

And for discussion: return of the flamingo!

Let's talk about ideas! Are you a writer that has a thousand more ideas than you'll ever write? Or do you struggle to come up with inspiration for fic? (Possibly you go through both phases!) Where do your ideas come from: your head, conversations w/other people in your fandom, prompts from a comment fic meme or a challenge, somewhere else? A combination of all of them? Are you ever itching to write but stumped for what to write about? Have you been successful in using other people's suggestions at those times (or, like the flamingo, perhaps you just get the same suggestions over & over, maybe something you don't want to write)? How do you keep track of your ideas before you have the time to actually write them? & how do you prioritize which one to pursue first?

Writing session on Saturday!

We haven't had one of these for a while -- how about a writing session on Saturday at 7 PM UTC+1 (what time is that for you?)?

As always, more info about how sessions work is here -- & if anyone else would like to host one, please do post & let us know! There aren't a lot of times when I can do them & I recognize they won't be convenient for everyone -- we have members in a lot of different time zones -- so it'd be fantastic if others wanted to step up too.

Hope to see some of you there!
