Discussion -- May 2015 75-word Writing Challenge

[Culhwch]

And discuss!

 

[Juliana]

Ooh, a shiny brand new thread!

After several months with challenging genres, I'm oddly excited by the idea of a more open month.

I like the theme too, Cul. Lots of ideas starting to bubble.

 

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Well now. Finally a throwback to the original genres. And Departures, huh? There's a good theme.


After so many odd, off-the-wall genres, it's good to get back to basics.

 

[Ashleyne]

A wonderful theme, Culhwch. My mind was sparked in an instant and I've already got a story. I might sit on it a while.

 

[Moonbat]

So we've had a departure from the more complex themes and genres?


I'll get my coat.

 

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Something I've been wanting for a while, myself, MB.


I've just not had the chance lately to make it so...

 

[Bowler1]

Yay - I understand this one....

 

[Moonbat]

I'm usually a late poster, mainly because in the very early months I posted early-ish and then regretted it when I saw improvements I could have made. I'm really tempted to get in there early this time, but my idea(s) have not fully formed yet.
Dare I rush it to be first and get the attention of all readers/voters or shall I wait.

Hmm, I wonder, if I post today, then I'll have to wait 30 odd days till I need to write again, will this help me get on with my WIP or not?

 

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Indeed indeed, B-man.


Looking back, yeah...I didn't even enter Tudorpunk, haha. But yeah, back to basics.



And a good, broad theme. Cul, I could practically kiss you full on the mouth here!

 

[Cat's Cradle]

Good one, Cul! Looking forward to writing for this. (I'm always so happy on the first when there's a new writing challenge!) CC

 

[Culhwch]

Please do try and restrain yourself!

 

[marmalade]

I shall now spend the month contemplating this theme, ahh but which path to take?

 

[willwallace]

I had a story idea pretty quickly, the title was what gave me some fits.

 

[Luiglin]

I sincerely apologise for my entry but it was far too awful to ignore

 

[TitaniumTi]

To post, or not to post, that is the question:
Whether it is happier to suffer
the what-ifs and might-have-dones of irrevocable submission
or think, and think again,
and leave my options open.

 

[Teresa Edgerton]

A lot of variety already!

With Robert's I'm suspecting the influence of Greek mythology. It will be interesting after the voting is done to find out if my guess about the last line was right.

Can't see how it can be anything else...

Nice take!

I need to muse. And find time.

 

[Luiglin]

Crap, I've messed up the last line. I re-read it more than any others I've entered and even got my better half to check it. Damn, damn, damn. Oh well

 

[Teresa Edgerton]

The last line looks good to me!

 

[Luiglin]

Too many 'just's spoil the pun lol. It works 'just' about but could have been 'just' that little bit better.

Edit: thanks Teresa
