D&D one-shot idea:
You own a restaurant in a fantasy world. You get your hands on an advance copy of the annual Best in Town report. You finish 17th which leaves you ineligible for the Best Burger Bracket (top 16) which can boost a business forever. You have a week to change it. How do you fix this?

The ONLY good thing about the cold is the new and exciting curses it brings unbidden from my mouth. Today's varietals:
1. Holy piss missiles
and
2. Colder than a yeti's nipple ring
There is no way these will be the last new curses I come up with with the damnable winter upon us shortly.

Something about being stuck driving to work behind a city vehicle going FIFTEEN FUCKING MILES AN HOUR sets the day up to be full to the brim with annoyances. God help any characters I write today. They’re gonna have a bad time.

Okay, it's Monday so time for another push for ratings!
Before the end of the year, can we get Zoo to 50, WBRG to 30, and October Music to 10? More for Boddicker would be killer too, but I like round numbers.

Okay, time to create some debate.
The CARS universe is completely fucked. There are so many questions.
1. How do they get maintenance done? They don't have hands and the humans are all dead.
2. How do they procreate? Is motor oil just gestalt sperm?
3. Do they even have a financial system?

Because my brain can't focus on one idea at a time, I just went through the notes I have for the D&D inspired book series I eventually want to write and I need to probably do a refresher on my WIPs every so often because I have NO idea what a lot of the notes mean. Sheesh.

Okay, I'm going to try this out this way.
Wizfestation (the working title) will be Patreon-exclusive until I change my mind because nobody's reading it.
ANYWAY, here is a link to the post with the first 1000 words 'hook' for the story. Enjoy.

Note on the Wizfestation story:
Erma is one of the crankiest, pettiest old lady characters I've seen and I am absolutely adoring writing her. I honestly can't wait to see how she responds as the threats to her garden ramp up.

I've been bombarding your feed (well, as much as anyone sees it) with writing questions and adult-level thoughts about work and purpose, it's high time I drop a meme in here to remind you all that I am not a serious person. Well, I mean, I am, but that's a whole other thing.

Genuine question because the stupid-ass ‘wizards as invasive species’ idea hasn’t just left my brain:
Would that story be better as something horror-framed or as something cozy (e.g. like they’re garden pests)? Both have appeal but they are very different.

For the not late night crowd...I still wanna do this. Somehow.
I have no idea where, when, how, or whatever other context I would need, but I really would love to give a lecture on vocal expression. Not from a physical perspective or medical or anything like that. More from a sense of meaning can change with how something is presented, how it's spoken or sung.
