Wither Pico?

Dear Pico'ers,

This post is to ask what you want of Pico.

As you'll have noticed, I didn't post a prompt for April.

To be honest, I've begun to feel a bit self-conscious about posting these prompts when only a couple of people are contributing.  Had Pico run its course, and all the prompts were doing was making people feel guilty, when they've already enough on their plate?

If Pico has run its course, let's celebrate what Pico has achieved - many thousands of words that might not otherwise have been written - and then hit the "pause" button.  Altariel can then "resume" Pico at some other time, perhaps in November.

If you don't want Pico to pause, please submit a post and let me know.

If we do pause, I'll probably start up a private email list with a couple of friends - where we'll just send periodic emails to each other, describing progress, and offering encouragement.  If you'd be interested in such a private email list, post here that you're interested, and I'll arrange a way for you to join it without advertising my or your email address to the sundry spambots of the Websphere.
