Wow, that's a coincidence....

So, the other day, when pressed for time to write my ficlet. I came up with this quick idea that involved evil garden gnomes.

Apparently, myself and the marketing team over at IKEA have similar minds, because I stumbled upon this ad on tumblr today that is pretty much exactly what I was picturing (as far as the gnomes go anyway.)

Crazy! (and hilarious)

In other news, I'm not sure I'm going to get a ficlet up today. I've been wracking my brain trying to come up with something but nothing's really captured my imagination yet. We'll see... (for those that are curious, the prompt today is: "No, today I work." which is pretty amusing to me since I can't seem to get any work done today.)

(I've also fallen down the rabbit whole of reading fic from a new fandom - so, yeah, for a procrastinator like me, it's basically a paradise of hundred upon hundred of good new fics with which to not get anything else done.)

April Ficlet: Maeve (Original Fic)

It's still before midnight my time!! WOO!

I decided to once again go with my new original fic fantasy universe. I'm experimenting with a new character in this one, kind of... testing her out. The piece is still from Dove's POV, but he's a passive observer in this (I'm using the cliched eaves-dropping device.) Anyway, yeah, here I introduce Maeve, who is actually an old D&D character of mine that was originally much more like Dove, but I've re-conceived her here as a slightly different class.

For those who have been following along with this 'verse, let me know what you think. (And I apologize for any typos, I don't have time to edit.)

Today's Prompt: "No, I work today."
