Yes, I have been thinking of it, too. I am terrible at getting prompts done. 
I can be very scattered. But I did write down a line with which I want to 
begin - something. Writing takes me a very long time to do, usually. And, 
most of my time is occupied by the "thinking" process before I ever begin - 
I might have a word or image going around in my brain for months or even 
years before it hits the paper. I am s l o w .
