This paragraph was inspired by this week's Fiction Friday prompt:
I have said that before, but it can't do any harm if I repeat myself here: Writing prompts are a great way of introducing new ideas to your story and keeping you on track with regard to the word count. Toni offers a big collection of writing prompts, and since she is participating in NaBloPoMo, there will be a new one every day this month - I hope.
"It's a little like scrap-booking, I suppose. I just like to keep the receipts to document the price changes in groceries over time, and also to see what kinds of food I was into at a certain time," she told me the first time I saw her with her notebook, the receipts and the glue-stick. "I went to a frozen pea phase a year ago - look, frozen peas every time over three months." She handed me an older notebook and made a movement with her hand which was supposed to mean, take the damn thing and look at it already. Indeed, Karena had bought tons of frozen peas, and the Food Emporium receipts were over a year old. If that is not meticulous planning, I don't know what is. It is a weird hobby, as well, and I wonder who of Them came up with the idea - the person should definitely give fiction writing a go.
