Writing Contest: Discussion Thread

You can delete the question mark by my name!

Some of those people haven't visisted this thread in a while.

I'll recount this and get back to you guys in a moment. :>

So, including the mods and the members here, we have around 11 people. Within the next few days, I will have the details of the next contest up for you guys to see. I hope you guys like the theme.

So uh, at the risk of being an impatient jerk-face, when is the grand relaunch?

You will know in due time.

Hey, guys. I want in again. Hopefully, ZU's PMing system doesn't screw me again >_>

I'd like to enter the contest, please.

Alls you need to do to enter the contest(s) is just write something according to the theme and following the rules and PM them to Vey. But only when the contest is going on. They havent set up next months contest yet.

This month's prompt should yield to some fun entries! I know I've already got some gears turning for my own piece...

Pretty much. Take a peek at this month's writing contest thread for more info. ;3

I see the new theme is Black Friday (I like it!!)

I did NOT see, however, where Doran Bladefist announced that would be the theme. Did he say it in a PM? Did someone else choose the theme? Who set the parameters of the contest (such as word count, etc?)

I'm asking because I need to know for the podcast. Thanks :3

PREPARE YOURSELVES!!!

Aw, another contest already? Your enthusiasim always makes me wanna grab a pen and start writin'. And then after five minutes I have to check back for inspiration again. ;3

And, if I'm correct (which I may not be), we might have something special planned for this month's contest. Oh-ho-ho! but I cannot tell you until I know how alls this stuff is gonna work.

And uh... I have no idea how to answer your questions, Margar, as I do not have the answers. Only the Vey-Vey! x3

Started getting into my stride for this month's entry! Wrote something like 1500 words yesterday!

It was discussed via PM, and it was me who set the parameters.

Contest cancelled this month? That's too bad. I've been too busy to write, and, to be perfectly honest, there was no way I would have come up with anything about Black Friday. While it was a very timely theme and was very original--I know I've never read anything about Black Friday--it was also a very narrow and difficult theme to work with. This may have scared some people off.

._. Aw. The contest totally went over my head. I did try to write a little somethin', but it turned out to be so depressing that I didn't dare finish it. Did we have a new theme or dates for December?

No, we will not be having a contest for December. December is far too busy a month for most people to care.

CHRISTMAS IS A COMIN'!

._. But I still haven't put the decorations out. Oh well, I'll look forward to the next contest! :3

So... does January = an awesome new writing contest?

Yes it does.

Keep us updated! I'm pretty eager to hear what the theme's going to be. :>
