Poor guy. I can't tell if he's depressed, sulking, or just falling to pieces because he's doing NaNoWriMo. Or maybe he's watching an ant pile. He looks like kind of an airhead, don't you think?
What caption would you write for this photograph? Post yours in comments (or if you can't think of a caption, just throw your name in the hat) by midnight EST on Sunday, November 9, 2008. I will pick one name from everyone who participates and send the winner a surprise. To add a little mystery, I won't say what the surprise is, but my past winners can tell you that my surprises are always pretty good. This giveaway is open to everyone on the planet, even if you've won something here at PBW in the past.
After deciding to re-tell the story of Humpty Dumpty, Jack decided that being a method writer might not be such a good idea after all.

Cinderella should have read the fine print before agreeing to her fairy godmother's deal. She just thought her coach was going to turn back into a pumpkin at midnight. Ooops.

ReplyDeleteWhat would Macgyver do if he were in my situation?
ReplyDeleteJack figured this topped the list of places he had woken up hungover, if only he could figure out how to get down.
