Forward Motion is running the Story-A-Day challenge again this May, and one of the random story-idea generators Zette listed as fair game for the challenge was mine. A bunch of people have already posted stories that were inspired by my generator.
People are using my generator! *hugs self*
Okay, so I knew it was being used, because I knew it was getting hits. But still. It's just so amazingly cool to read these stories - and some of them have been very good stories - and know that it was something I'd programmed had helped inspire them.
Okay, yes, I'm a geek.
Okay, I'm also very silly to care.
But I do.
I will probably try to do the challenge (and, yes, using my own generator, that's why I wrote the damned thing after all) but short stories are not my forte. We'll see.
Further postage will probably occur soon. One day, dammit, I'm going to be good about blogging again.

Found your blog from the generator page, actually, and wanted to leave a comment -- I haven't started writing my challenge stories yet, since I was out of town for the first three days of May (oops), but I generated about ten ideas and copied them to a Word file already; they've got the muse running frantic circles in my head. Thanks!
