Discussion Thread -- September 2014 75-word Writing Challenge

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Now, I heard there's plenty of chocolate cake behind that windowless door down the hall...the one that has a sign reading STAFF on it...

 

[nixie]

we don't have windowless door.....

 

[johnnyjet]

... but do you have cake?

 

[nixie]

and biscuits

 

[Void]

A cake-related sixth sense brought me in here.

Thanks for the review HopeWrites!

To those I did not review, I am deeply sorry. Let's just say I'm still working on it. (except mine, I couldnt think of anything to say about mine that would not be considered "revealing more" about it.)

to those I did; you are most welcome. Let's not say that being stuck home for the last week with a cranky body was all for not.

 

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

It's all fine.

And I know how that sort of thing goes. I'm usually stuck at home all the time myself.

 

[chrispenycate]

I'm in. Yes, the force personified is rather similar to Groot's, but my piece was already progressing when this became obvious, and I rather liked it, so continued (yes, I do sometimes spend rather a long time over my pieces - I'm not sure it improves them that much, but I can't let them out unprepared, can I?)

chrispenycate -- This elegant and exquisitely crafted poem conveys a majestic tone appropriate to its subject.

 

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Sure you can, Chris. I do every month, just about...

Hmm...that might explain some things, actually...



With this statement, I just thought of something...we really need a "hmm" or deep in thought smiley...

 

[hopewrites]

would the Deep Thought smiley simply say 42?

 

[Groot]

Thanks Hope and Victoria and others for your kind words on Storm Chasers.

All quite on the challenge front the last few days, which won't do. Time to set my inspiration inducer to wide beam and see if the instruction manual (which I did of course read from cover to cover, ahem...) is correct.

Buzz, pop and crackle.

I'm not sure, let me increase the power a little. BUZZ, POP and CRACKLE.

I wonder if I can still get my money back.

BUZZ - POP, POP - FLASH.

Bloody thing - BUZZ - BUZZ.

That Yoda is a green menace, selling me rubbish after we'd had a few beers. BUZZ - BUZZ. No Rubbish. I've been done up a kipper.

Oh dear, Bowler I am sorry to have to be the one to tell you, but this entry is over 75 words long.

See, it works. I'm spouting meaningless words all over (my usual standard).

 

[Ashleyne]

Thx for the review, Hope

 

[chrispenycate]

Thank you Victoria for your commentary – somehow I don't really see 'exquisitely crafted' as a description of anything I put out.

 

[Phyrebrat]

Well you should...

 

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

I could only wish for my stuff to garner those two words from others, Chris...

 

[ratsy]

I had to check the Challenge posts to see if I entered this month...wow my head must be getting loose or something...turns out I did...
