Car Lust

_cokwr: So I wanted to submit a new visual assignment. All of us, most of us anyways, have a dream car. This is a simple assignment. Take a picture, or find a picture on the web of a car that you love. Then, write a description of how that car make you feel. That's it. Short and simple. This combines the visual of a car, with the story telling aspect, of how an object make you feel. , _cpzh4: Visual, _cre1l: http://blog.mg79mkiv.info/?p=239, _chk2m: MG79MKiV, _ciyn3: 123, _ckd7g: , _clrrx: , _cztg3:

Blogger Fanfic

_cokwr: Write fanfic about your favourite blogger(s). Maybe someone in or around ds106, maybe somebody elsewhere you read regularly. What do they get up to? What are their secret thoughts and dreams? How do they get on with other bloggers? Obviously these stories are likely to be pretty ridiculous, but they should never be any more ridiculous than blogging itself., _cpzh4: Fanfic, _cre1l: http://eduslash.wordpress.com/, _chk2m: Fr Vivian O'blivion, _ciyn3: 151, _ckd7g: , _clrrx: , _cztg3:
