Weekly Spontaneity [201]
We are going to post something to spark those creative minds, be it a deviation, a quote, a song, or something else completely, and your purpose is to write a six word story.

Secondly, get your votes in for the monthly news letter from February. We are very short on votes.
Speaking of votes, there will be a few new systems in place starting next month. This will be outlined in the next monthly news
