Writing competitions? - Creamy Goodness - 07-16-2011
[MENTION=431]Scarecrow[/MENTION] pretty much convinced me that we should probably go ahead and do this since we have more than five people. The one problem is I'm kind of up to my armpits in another story at the moment and have a few movie reviews I need to get to. So I'm considering bumping the start date to September 1st and probably doing a Halloween theme of some kind. Thoughts?

Sounds perfect to me. I've got the perfect Halloween-theme story. I'll probably start outlining it tonight.

I'm thinking Setember may be open for me work wise. I'm also thinking that I'm only kidding myself about seriously writing anything soon, horror related, or worth while.

Halloween the holiday or movie series...?

What do you think?

I'm going to tell you right now, I pretty much won't ever pick a well established franchise as the theme for a writing competition. I feel it's too predictable and I wouldn't have a good time writing a story like that.

I'm going to tell you right now, I pretty much won't ever pick a well established penis as the theme for my anal competition. I feel it's too predictable and I wouldn't have a good time fucking a story like that.
That's what you should've said.

I guess this is still on the cards. I started a rough draft of the guidelines tonight and I think it's about done. If anyone has any suggestions on what some of the guidelines should be, feel free to mention them. It's all pretty basic at the moment; word count, theme, and something random (that'll be explained later). Still aiming for a September 1st start. If you signed up and are no longer interested, let us know. Otherwise, signups are still open.

Sounds sweet! No suggestions for the moment, I feel like being surprised.

Oh. Thanks for starting it without me.
Writing competitions? - Creamy Goodness - 08-09-2011
It doesn't even start until September...

Oh. Well...
I'm still pissed.
Writing competitions? - Creamy Goodness - 08-10-2011
Not about this though. Unless you're pissed about not being able to be pissed about this.

I'm pissed about him being pissed about not being able to be pissed about this!

Screw you all! I am the one who is pissed! I'm pissed at Cory for even thinking he's allowed to be pissed. I'm pissed at Chris for bursting Cory's pissed-bubble and pissed at Cory AGAIN for continuing to be pissed even after said bubble bursting. THEN I'm pissed at Sobie for horning in all the pissedness—who does she think she is, anyway? BUT MOST OF ALL, I'm pissed at Mike for his general pissyness.
I may just have to kill you all in my Halloween Film Franchise themed story.

Ooo, can I be in it?

Only as the pissed off dead guy, probably.
