2026 PAD Challenge Day 6
2026 PAD Challenge Day 6
okay I set up the prompts and I already did this one once because it was stuck in my head but I really am trying to do the pad challenge using the Fae Corps Publishing prompts so …
my response is :
daisy chains
tied us together
in flowers and paper
childhood memories
tree trimmings
and moments in the world
each one precious
each one unique
a chance to be
young eternally

This is my work in progress list… and how I keep track of my word count.
Still fighting bronchitis and I have a new wound in my foot. I am attempting the pad challenge using the Fae Corps Publishing prompts. This year I have been unable to see anything from the writer’s digest prompts. I guess I am just not in the right place for them.
Are you doing the pad challenge this year ?

Serena’s response is:
Dripping ink pours
from every pore
as if it were my
lifeblood leaking
I need to write to survive
and still it drips freely
as if I am unable to use it
fast enough

okay I am running late today. I am also fighting bronchitis. This weather has me sick.
I started a new theme volume. so I listed it on there but the only writing in it so far is the foreword. That explains the idea of the volume and the rules I want to use within it. I don’t normally add that to the count because it is a natural part of the process…but it is starting that volumes set up. it is another one focusing on specific forms.
I also found out why I was struggling to get The sea serpent to go forward and fixed it. so I got some words in it.

Lyrics –
Slaughter The World
Lyrics by Ryan Sohmer
Excitement abounds
I almost can’t wait
Relax, I don’t want your baby
I already ate
Though I do tend to generally kill
Kill things that don’t fight back
I see this village
What does it hold?
What shall I butcher them with
Fire or cold?
Running from me sure you’d think
‘He’s a pathological bloodthirsty homicidal maniac!’
I’d kill kittens and puppies and bunnies
I’d maim toddlers and teens and then more
You see a wife? I see a widow
But what then?
Can’t you see?
I’d kill four!
I want to incinerate and decapitate
I want to melt
Want to melt some faces
Watching the peasants…what do they call it?
Ahh…grieve!
I suppose that being undead there’s not much to life
A soul is needed for loving…feeling…
How does this all not make me…what’s that word again?
Heave!
You’ve nowhere to hide
Nowhere to run
Your village will burn like the heart of the sun!
With infinite glee
It’s going to be me
That slaughters the world!
How could I glare into these eyes
And then not stab them?
How could I stare at their loss
And then not laugh?
I’d cut him in half
Then I’d graft
His head back onto his shoulders
Or after I’d lop it
I’d make a puppet
On top of a staff!
I am a lord that is sometimes bored
Have some urges and need to fulfill them
After my mayhem I simply don’t…what’s the word?
Care!
The stench in the air
The smell of the gore
The carnage far greater than any war
My legacy
Death becomes…me!
I’ll slaughter the world
My 2 cents –
okay I am in a silly mood. this is one of two great parody songs that the looking for group comic guys put together with an animated video for. I love them both.

This is my work in progress list… and how I keep track of my word count.
This week is an odd one. You will probably notice that the numbers have changed very little. That is because the writing was not something that I would list.
I wrote a new children’s book.
I wrote the outline for a story that I plan on writing soon but I didn’t actually write anything in the story yet.
I wrote stuff in emails for various reasons that kept my brain busy and away from my more creative adventures.
I wrote in my personal journal that is labeled as word vomit and will hopefully not see sunlight ever.
As you can see, none of them would end up on the list. The first one is completely written. this list is works in progress. the second one is only an idea at this point and not even started as far as I am concerned. the third is not creative at all. and the fourth is clearing the trash so I can write.
Some weeks are like this for me. These are the ones where I do more art or crafting because my brain has decided to be difficult when I try to write.
On the craft side…we decided to move my studio into the house to give me access to electricity and more space. This week I spent quite some time sorting and organizing the new craft room. My son moved everything inside for me (except for one table which we need to make space for first) And I have been sorting through and cleaning up my supplies. I will try to take pictures and post it when I get it done. Unfortunately, I have overdone. Which is frustrating and painful.
