Discussion Thread - 100 Word Anon Writing Challenge - Nov 2014

Sounds good, and thank you, Mosaix for running this one. I can't step up to the next one - I'm running the chronsversations on twitter and am due an edit back. Sorry. What I can say to anyone thinking of it, this one was straightforward to run and didn't take up loads of time. :)
 
And we have a volunteer - farntfar! Many thanks. :)

Farntfar will start the entry thread and discussion threads. PM your entries to him. Robert, perhaps you would let him know the theme / genre?
 
It's my pleasure folks.
I really enjoy these challenges, and especially this one, so I'm happy to give something back.

So far all I've said is that I'll do it.
But I've still got to learn how it's done. :)
 
Yay - I voted for the winning story, a first for me :) Congratulations Robert!

Thank you so much for the votes, farntfar and cyprus7, and for the shortlist, TDZ and CC (plus a belated thanks for the review, Victoria).
I enjoyed doing this. I tried a vaguely SF-ish approach, which is nowhere near what I would usually do, so extremely happy it got rated :D

Thanks for running this, mosaix. Looking forward to the next one, Robert & farntfar (I say that now...wait 'til I read the theme on Saturday!)

I'm afraid it's Sunday, not Saturday, Darkchome. :)


Robert has already come up with a theme, and all I can say is it's a humdinger.

I'll keep to the same timetable as the November one, unless people want to advance it for the sake of Christmas.
I.E. Announced Sunday evening (the 30th November) and I'll accept PMs sent after midnight GMT (00:00 the 1st of December) and before Friday the 19th (23:59:59 GMT).

I'm generally connected all day (French time: GMT+1) and in the evening and I'll try to post your entries (after word counting and stuff) as soon as possible after that.
Please note that my boss won't be too pleased if I spend all day on it, so there may be a delay.

If there's a problem with word count, I'll let you know by PM and you can fix it within the normal restrictions. (Nominally 1 hour after I PM you) If there's a problem due to you or I being unavailable due to time zones or whatever we can sort it out with the generous help of TDZ as required.

Voting obviously follows the closure and runs til midnight on the 22nd.

Sorry this post is a bit dry. But I thought I'd get all this out now in one go.
 
Thanks for the mention, Will Wallace. Thanks for the close second, Springs. Also, thank you, farntfar, for organising the next competition.
Congratulations on two anonymous victories in a row, Robert :)
