"Invent Your Own Writing Technology"

After work one day I went on a mission. I had spent the last eight and a half hours asking my colleagues what I could write on in the store. After explaining the project to everyone the brainstorming began. Everyone had suggestions. My favorite was pig blood, (we have a butcher shop in the store) but that violated the no bodily fluids rule. Then as I was making up some kabobs I got my inspiration, vegetable peels. So I walked around the produce department scratching the fruits and vegetables until I found what I was looking for. Durability, flexibility, writeability (I just made that word up), asparagus.

So I went home and found a sharp rock and got to carving.

This is actually a slightly different post than what I was looking for with the prompt, but I think that's my fault because I wasn't clear in class. Oh well; still a good writing invention.
