Sekrit Santa 33 1/3

[David Evil Overlord]

Hey, my eyes are up here!

 

[ratsy]

Thanks for the awful angle DEO, it really made me 'crack up'

I have sent in my story

I am excited to see the results. What a cool exercise this is.

 

[Glisterspeck]

I'll have mine by Sunday...

 

[ratsy]

Hey gang. How many stories are we waiting on at this point?

 

[monsterchic]

*raises hand*

Mine. This last month and a half or so has seriously been the busiest I've ever been. I sincerely apologize, but it's coming soon (hopefully)

 

[TheDustyZebra]

Sorry, trying not to bug anyone.

I have six stories in, so far, and that means we're waiting on seven more. I know that, in the past, stories have been sent to their people when they came in, but with it being such a trickle I figured it would be better to wait. It would make things pretty obvious, at this point.

We're waiting on:

Mith
monsterchic
Phyrebrat
Glisterspeck
Remedy
Tywin
jastius

sorry dusty .. that literary theory bunkum thread made me doubt everything i have ever written since the age of three... had my moment of gloom, and then whilst i was rewriting my niece started giggling over my old notes saying,'how do you think up this stuff?', so i am up and running again.

 

[TheDustyZebra]

See, now, literary theory is dangerous stuff!

 

[chrispenycate]

Seems I should have hung onto mine a bit longer for polishing.

Ah, well, you live and you learn. Sometimes (proverbs involving ancient, decrepit canines and more recent machinations spring to mind).

 

[TheDustyZebra]

You can still work on it and send me a new one, chrispy -- it hasn't gone anywhere yet!

 

[hopewrites]

dont tempt him (or me)

 

[TheDustyZebra]

Tempt...tempt...you can, too, hope.

So, a small child knows more than all that literary theory? Why am I not surprised?

Tempt...tempt...you can, too, hope.

Dusty, you temptress, you...

 

[Phyrebrat]

I'm busy writing away (although I have now reverted back to my original story...yes, my star sign is Pisces) non stop.

Life intervened and I found my time allocated to the SS3 Project severely restricted. And I have birthday celebrations this weekend.

That said, please know I am working on it every moment I have (apart from now, of course ). Like a few of us this time around, I found my stim a little outside of what I know so I struggled until I got the idea which came late. Then I shilly-shallied when I should have stuck with the original idea.

Okay, I think I've Uriah Heeped enough now...

[TheDustyZebra]

Soooo... how are we doing? People still writing, do you have any idea of a timeframe yet?

 

[ratsy]

...crickets....

 

[TheDustyZebra]

I don't remember assigning any stories to crickets.

 

[jastius]

the thunder of a million monkeys rattling the keys of a million laptops echo out in the web-wilderness..
....unfortunately they are only producing boring old tosh like the works of shakespeare and dickens.

work faster you darn monkeys!!! or dang it we are turning off the big brother show!



monkeys working faster.. muttering about timmies breaks ensues....

 

[TheDustyZebra]

I lied to Remedy earlier and said that we are still waiting on five more stories after his -- but actually, it's six!

Mith
monsterchic
Phyrebrat
Glisterspeck
Tywin
jastius

 

[Phyrebrat]

Hi TDZ, and others.

Not been able to sign in for around a week and didn't want any of you thinking I was ignoring things. I'm still beavering away on my story - how are the rest of the Final 6 coming along? (Just trying to contextualise my delay, here )
