This is the place to tell us about your daily success (or the lack of it)!

May the magic be with us all!

Humph. I wrote two filets for related prompts and then, just as I was closing up to go out for the evening... I suddenly had the idea that what they should be was simply dialogues, that would be better and funnier. So I'm scrapping them (but shoving them in a workstuff folder just in case I can use bits of them later) and I'll rewrite them.

At least I know what I want. On the other hand, I didn't name anyone but the canon characters in the originals ficlets, I didn't need to, and now I we have to come up with at least half a dozen Arthurian faux-medieval names (oh woe is me.... I will take any excuse for name research, I will :)

I'm starting to suspect you changed your mind about the ficlets just because you wanted to research names :D :D

I deny it! (Despite the fact that what little writing I got done the next day was, ummm, reseraching names)

I downloaded a whole A-Z Arthurian names list some years ago, simply because, and I love it dearly.... plus I have a page of Medieval names and 'nicknames', diminutives etc that I must have downloaded at least 10-12 years ago ito a word doc but still love dearly... I don't even know if either is still on the web, but the Internet Archive is sooooo my friend.
