On the Porch
Onisha Ellis
While strolling through my twitter timeline on Wednesday I came across this tweet from someone I don’t know. “How to Communicate your Displeasure with Neighbours using Wi-Fi”. Intrigued, I followed the link (If you don’t click this link you won’t get my point.)
After I finished snickering I began to think of how this could be used in a positive way. My first thought for use in my life was Christian outreach. What if I named my network Micah 6:8? Would anyone be curious enough to look it up? How about a weekly encouraging word?
Sadly, my second thought was how could this be used for marketing? Now my mind was working overtime and I found myself giggling. If you don’t feel the need to be anonymous the possibilities are endless. I could title my network OldThingsRNew.wordpress. If you are an author you could try posting your book links, novel lines or announce “another 5 star review!”
Moving beyond marketing I imagined a whole neighborhood getting involved in a mini-flash fiction.
Carrie slowly opened the door
Drat! It’s that weirdo down the street
I let him in once.
You can see my quirky mind has taken off on it’s own tangent. I would try to be more normal but it’s not nearly as much fun.

My friend, you give me way too much credit on this one. Love you!

I just wrote a review for Amazon for a book called, “Books to Read in the Hospital,” that was similiar to this quirky piece. What I’m saying, and I believe what you are saying is: there should be some kind of minimum standard for clear, correct writing so that something of a point is made and the reader can take away something from the piece.
