Watch the Footage

So what do you guys think?

When it eventually came down to it, the world didn’t end with a whimper or anything even close to resembling a bang. It just sort of... happened.
On the plus side, at least this meant that nobody was left pointing at the sky, or a book, or a scientific journal of some description and smugly saying ‘I told you so’. Which wasn’t much of a plus, really, but while your world was ending, you took what little positives you could find and rung the last drop of hope out of them.
Although, happened wasn’t really the right word for it either. It didn’t just happen, it became. The world was lifted out of being and changed, like a child with an infinite crayon had scribbled everything out, leaving behind only the blackness of twigs in the forest and the dim white of a now empty sky. The world stopped being what it had been, and became something else entirely. That something else was a great deal smaller than what it had been before.
Millicent sat on the doorstep of her home, in the very last town that existed in the entire world, and watched the white ravens peck at a dead rat lying in the gutter.

Also, tomorrow I'll be busy, so I probably won't write much. I want to know if it's better for me to write it today, and let my RPG post for tomorrow, or write my RPG post today and write tomorrow. Any thoughts?

I can't wait for this month to be over. Having to finish 1667 words a day is tiring and its only the second day.

It gets easier. By the time the madness sets in around the end of the second week, you'll find your fingertips twitching even when there's no keyboard, your mind spewing story onto every available surface. Then the madness starts to fester around the third week, as your characters climb out of your head through your ears, lock you up in your basement and begin writing their own story, for you, pausing only to alternately feed you or beat you.

I get special permission to have the madness early. That is why this post is mad.

They seem to have developed a life of their own.

Mutant apple crisps? How did you get that?

Well, people, it's day Three here, day Two for most others. How are we holding up?
