Ohh, I did it! *looks around nervously* We’ll see what comes of it, but I will try! I have no real excuse to not try it this year.

I ‘buddy-ed’ you – I’m rolypolypony 🙂

Story ideas you can steal:

A cat’s hitchhiking journey across the US, riding with truckers, in the handbasket of a bicycle, with the whole thing spiced up by the stories told by the people and cats and other animals kitty is introduced to along the way.

A group of 20-somethings who just graduated college and moved to D.C. from all different walks of life become friends as they work together on a grass-roots political campaign (I don’t know WHERE you would ever find research material on that!)

A curmudgeon finds herself, through a series of events, teaching fourth graders. Despite her best efforts to stay cynical they end up teaching her how to see the beautiful things in life again.

A collection of anecdotal life lessons learned through knitting, chronicalling the lives of several women in a knitting club as they coach and tutor their young new members.

A parallel story of a modern african-american and her ancestor brought over as a slave.

Glimpses of the lives of people on the route of a postal worker.

A mystery with a death at a college campus that turns out to be murder and the fight between a right minded public relations staffer and the college as to how much cooperation with the PD should be given and how much info should be released and how to prevent the murder from affecting future applicants or alumni gifts.
