Ok, you all. I've been inspired by Shawn at Letters to My Daughters (whose group writing project I didn't even manage to participate in) to host a group writing project. Because I don't like to pick favorites, I'm not going to pick a winner (although we all know that The Junky's Wife would be the winner anyway), but I will post links to all the entries, which means you will earn some free publicity and some link love from me.
So, here we go. The topic is: My Happy Place. Several months ago, I wrote a post about my own happy place. Now I want to hear about yours. You can write about an actual favorite physical place or a favorite memory you go back to when you're feeling down or a fantasy place or a place in a book or movie or a place you want to go. You run with it. I want to read it.
To join, write a new post on said topic before the clock strikes 9 p.m. in New York on October 24. The post should include a link back here. Then leave me a comment telling me the location of your post, and I will post links to all the submissions on October 25.
Sound like fun? I hope so. I'm looking forward to seeing what you all have to say.





The gears in my head are already turning...
I'm too dumb to play but I will read all of them fo sho.
Love,
Scout
always happy to be an inspiration ... I like the topic and hope that I can come up with something before the deadline.
wow, you were reading my mind MPJ...stop freaking me out!
seriously, my next post was going to be about one of my happy places, cause a memory was triggered very recently.
oh, e's not lying, she was telling me about that a while ago.
freaky!!!
I wanna play but I lost my favorite place $%#*&! I don't know what it is. I will think on it
oooh, count me in.
I know just what I will write and it makes me happy just thinking about it.
But I already wrote about my llama farm? I have to play, though, since you've finally earned back my love from that whole Mantra fiasco a few posts ago.

Sorry, haven't figured out how to do links in comments yet.
