Pet WriMo Rocks

What are they? For decades at least (and maybe millenia before that; the archeological records are unclear), people around the world have domesticated and cared for their pet rocks. Pet rocks are, once domesticated, remarkably easy to take care of and, if their owner has the right imagination, they are lovable.

WriMo Rocks were bred by Writers, particularly by those who participate in the November Writing Month (thus their breed name). With their polished demeanor, easy smiles and convenient sizes, WriMo Rocks make excellent pets for those desiring to write works of fiction in November or even throughout the year.
