I’ll say this about writing for Unstressed Syllables every week:
I’ve learned that I glean inspiration from about a kajillion more sources than I ever thought I did.
To celebrate this cramazing realization, I shall now share with you a list (with headings, sha-ZAM!) of WILAWriTWe inspirations. Said list (with headings, sha-ZAM!) is, sadly, not comprehensive, as we at one point suffered a black-hole-type loss of multiple blog post tags, an incident which has somewhat impeded my research for this list (with headings, sha-ZAM!).
But. Here ya go anyway.
