"642 Things to Write About" is a book written collectively by the San Francisco Writers' Grotto; a grotto of which I am unfortunately not a part of. However, upon purchasing the book, I've decided to improve my craft by completing one page a day until I make it through the whole thing. I will allot my self some days off, but for the most part I wanna see this to the end.

"642 Responses to Things" are all short stories in response to the prompts found in the book and run the gamut from action, sci-fi, horror, mystery, comedy etc... It's something to keep my mind sharp and hopefully something to keep you entertained. Enjoy these 642 things, and may they inspire you to write your own things no matter the quantity of things you wish to write.

Sex and Death in Skeleton City

29 parts Complete

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
