Writing Exercise
Evil Editor has called an emergency meeting of his board of directors. "No one's doing the writing exercises anymore," he says. "We need a new feature for Sundays."
"Maybe we just need better topics," his second-in-command suggests.
EE glares at her, but finally says, "Okay, we'll go around the table, and I want a clever and potentially hilarious idea from each one of you."
Write the rest of the scene. 300 words max. Deadline Sunday, 10 AM eastern.

Whatever happened to sending us sending in "scenes on a them"?
Those were excellent weekends.
Especially the sex scenes. And death, of course. there's always death.
I'm so drilled down on edits (and I thank you again for helping me learn to whittle by doing your writing exercises) that I'm having a hard time writing something that doesn't already come from my novel, Sparky.
AND, if you're bored with sex and/or death, there's always 'meeting someone' or 'a color mentioned in the scene' or
other stuff.
Quite a few of us seem to be doing the Big Writing Exercise in November... All my words are spoken for; they're needed for the UK inter-regional word war! Well, except for those ones, obviously. Um. And these ones here.
Or the NaNoWriMo dare forums. That might be a fun one.
So, see - popping in a scene we've already written, ya know...
Suggestions made as part of the writing exercise will be considered for future exercises. Suggestions made as comments...not.
Gotcha.
So am I on the board of directors or not?
Anyone, real or fictional, may be on the board.
Cool! I want a limo and a driver ;).
