Wind Tunnel Dreams

A project by Shira Lipkin.

• daily posts of flash fiction through 11/07;
• tip jar donation on each post;
• distributed via Livejournal during NaNoWriMo;
• correlated with raising funds for vet bills (as disclaimer note here that this is not a pure fiction model);
• requested writing prompts on the journal;
• at the completion of the project, LJ reading audience was approximately 990 users.

From the site:

"During the month of November, I'll be writing a flash/microfiction every day.

(No, this doesn't count as NaNoWriMo, because I'm not swearing to 2K words a day, and it's not planned as one overarching story.)

The flash/mini/microfiction will be inspired by your writing prompts. They will not all be Shayara-based, as the bits I post during Blogathon tend to be - actually, I will try to avoid drawing any of them from Shayara, as part of the point is to stretch my brain, pull it out of the comfort of a city and story I could write in my sleep.

I have a PayPal tip jar on my profile page, and I'll post a PayPal button with the daily story. Like what you read? Toss in some coffee money. Coffee money adds up. Hopefully, it adds up to enough to cover Max's vet bill."
