Writing a piece a day... will

keep the doctor away!

At least I hope so. Traditionally, it would be apples, but due to stupid allergies I can't eat those without them being mauled within an inch of their lives, no wait, make that completely abused, beat up, and very dead - unless I want to get a reaction, which I don't, thankyouverymuch - so I'll have to make do with this. And hope that the same basic principle applies. And for your infromation, I really like apples. I sometimes eat them regardless of the fact that I shouldn't.
Another reason for naming the wiki in such a fashion is that my writing can be a bit disturbing sometimes, or depressing, at the very least, so you may or may not get the urge to call some people in white coats to fetch me. However, I would kindly ask you to keep from doing that until I'm done. Can't very well write if I'm locked in a padded cell somewhere and wearing a straitjacket, now can I?

But I digress.

So. The purpose of this wiki here is to keep track of how I fare with the challenge I took upon myself, quite of my own volition, because I am crazy like that. I'm supposed to write at least one piece - be it a poem, a description, or a short story - each day during the month of April. I'll gladly receive any prompts you may have. I haven't figured out what the penalty will be if I don't succeed, but I guess I'll treat myself to sushi if I do. Or something.

Let's get on with it, then. Feedback is greatly appreciated.

---

Day One:
· Look at the Daily Poem slot!
· An acrostic poem.

Day Two:
· A vignette.

Day Three:
· Updated my LiveJournal (yes, it counts!).
· A haiku.

Day Four:
· A contest entry for WritersCo.

Day Five:
· A short story, probably still in need of editing.
· An acrostic haiku (yay!).

Day Six:
· A poem.

Day Seven:
· An acrostic poem (yeah, I've rather taken a liking to those).
· Started a weird-ass short story which you will never see. Unless you ask really nicely.

Day Eight:
· A small snippet from the point of view of Agony, my poor neglected vampire character.

Day Nine:
· An angsty snippet that is ultimately very random. (Thanks to Vorkje for some much-needed inspiration!)

Day Ten:
· A very (very, very, veeeeeery) crappy poem. Please don't read it.

Day Eleven:
· Another, improved version of the short story started on day seven.

Day Twelve:
· A rant that will probably never be seen by anyone. Unless asked really, really nicely and sworn by pain of death it will not be discussed with anyone but me. Though I probably won't show it anyway if you're not very close with me.
· Started a short story that will (hopefully) be finished tomorrow.

Day Thirteen:
· A sucky, nonsensical little snippet. No finished short story, I'm afraid.

Day Fourteen:
· Finished the short story started on day twelve.
· Yet another haiku.

Day Fifteen:
· A poem, an Elegy if you will.
· Another WritersCo contest entry (for the same contest, even).

Day Sixteen:
· Three haikus, of which two might actually be sensible to call senryus.

Day Seventeen:
· We are busy being fondled by the loverboy, but have yet another haiku!

Day Eighteen:
· Penned down a silly-ish contest idea.

Day Nineteen:
· An acrostic poem for a WritersCo contest. Kind of crappy.

Day Twenty:
· Feeling quite odd and not really well, so asked for prompt words and produced a poem. For the record, only three of five words were used.

Day Twenty-One:
· Wrote a drabble for a contest on WritersCo. Damn it was hard...

Day Twenty-Two:
· Take a guess. Yes, it's another haiku.

Day Twenty-Three:
· A haiku! But I'll write a story around it, too.
· Short horror(ish) story.

Day Twenty-Four:
· Very short snippet that is... incredibly depressive, probably.

Day Twenty-Five:
· Continued the snippet series that began with the one yesterday. I may be too fond of irony: I named the series "Happy House".

Day Twenty-Six:
· The next installment of "Happy House". Living room on the first floor.

Day Twenty-Seven:
· More of "Happy House", that is, part two of floor three.

Day Twenty-Eight:
· Three senryus forming a whole for a WritersCo contest.

Day Twenty-Nine:
· A random snippet that is hopefully not the utter rubbish I think it is.

Day Thirty:
· A limerick for a contest on WritersCo.
· Short story for another contest. Probably sucks monkey balls.
