This is just a little something to help get creative juices flowing. Admit it: you've probably had days where you've missed out on writing for whatever reason. This is your chance to come up with a excuse for those days. I don't want any real reasons; just make up something. The more creative, the better.
I couldn't write today, because one of my MMCs accidentally burnt down the setting.
But my MC's hiding from some Very Bad Guys right now - if I start typing, the sound of the keyboard will draw their attention. Then my MC'll be dead and my story will be over.
Excuses, Excuses
