I have to admit that the current events in the US have proved rather distracting to the writing process, at least they has been for me!
I do believe I've struck upon something and I believe I'm finally on the way. Yeah!
I wrote most of my stories out in longhand back in the day. My kids were little and I'd drag a legal pad along wherever we went, jotting paragraphs down whenever I had an idea. Then I'd transcribe what I'd written when everyone was asleep. Not quite sure when I slept! I still find writing things out in longhand to be a useful strategy to get ideas cooking.
So glad to hear that people are working on their stories. I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with. The variation in treatment of the same prompts never fails to amaze.
