Fifty Words: Spring Break

I want to thank everyone who participated in Fifty Words these past seven weeks. Some wonderful writing came out of this experiment and there was also lots of support, encouragement, and feedback. Although there were weeks when only a few people submitted entries, I know that lots more people visited the site. As of this morning, the hit count stands at 1,588. Not bad.

I'm not giving up on Fifty Words. But I am going to take a break so that I can work on new writing prompts and concentrate on finding a job -- those Google ads just aren't paying the bills. I'll post updates and announce the start of the next session here and at Gienna Writes.

In the meantime, get your dose of creative writing by visiting the sites of those who participated in the first Fifty Words session:

Freewriting
Between the Covers
Being Jennifer Garrett
Delightfully Mundane
Bumps and Bruises of a Virgin
Inked
Mixed-Up Reasonings on an Up-Side Down World
Reaching Infinity
Bad Metaphor
Warm Stone
Rowan's Ramblings
Tales From the Ridge
Behind Glass
Blogging Ned
Trace Talks
Poignant Blurs

I hope I didn't forget anyone! Please feel free to continue talking and sharing your writing via the comments section.

See you all soon,

Gienna

Looking for a job is so time consuming with so few rewards, it will eat your soul if you let it. Good luck with the search!

Hello there! I just sent you an e-mail, but just in case you don't check that address anymore, thought I would try posting a comment here as well. I noticed that there hasn't been much activity here on your blog since 2005. It is a great blog you had going, but was wondering if you had any intentions of keeping it (more specifically, keeping the blog name) because I am very interested in using the name, fiftywords.blogspot. Is there any chance you would be willing to turn it loose? Please let me know if this is at all possible? You can e-mail me at: Holleyb@havingthingsdone.com

Thanks so much and have a wonderful day!
