What is ? of the Day, you ask? Why, it's just a little creative challenge to help get your writing juices flowing. Every day I will draw a thing, word or action and will post it to the forum. Your challenge is to work it into your story. Some days may be things that fall under the 'delete' button on December 1st, but some become really fun parts of your story.
So, how do I get these things, words and actions? From you! You can either post suggestions to this thread or, if you want to keep 'em under wraps, send them to me via nanomail.
Please remember that these are all-age forums. If you don't send me ideas I may just have to get creative and I promise you all that could be a scary scary thing. Here are some examples:
Thing: flying dog
Word: loquacious
Action: jump from a flying meatball
I will post the first ? of the Day tomorrow. See you then!

Sorry, I am being forced into creativeness. Hmmm... I will post something before I go to that strange bed thing ;)

Already used the monitor. Pungent is harder, though I'm trying. Whistling is a great one for MC's best friend, I'll see about throwing that in here shortly. :)
