Is this how it starts?


Can't wait for it. Thank you Dana Jean, for taking this task on.

I'm not really doing anything. The writers are doing it, and I'm just sitting back and letting them!

I'll make this a sticky thread so it will be easier for others to find it.

I'm game. Got my game gloves on...

Where do I sign??? Last year was fun. I've been "out of the loop" for a while. Can I still participate?

There is an official sign up thread. Go read how this story is going to be run and then if you still want to do it, put your name in that thread and I will get you on the list.

My writing always turns into report language. "On this day at approximately blah blah blah I witnessed this, that, or what not." Any part of the story I pick up on will sound like a walk in report. Don't think I'd be any use in this type of story.

ghost19 - you would be surprised. Your part just might be the added "spice" the story might need. Give it a try.

Hey, your technical talk and my blah blah blabbity blab of similes will work in there somewhere. It's fun stuff!

Whatever is decided I'm OK with it. Last year was my first time participating in this story and I greatly appreciated Skymom's help. She made my story better and I was (still am) very grateful for her input. If you guys want to edit each writer's piece for typos and such, so be it. If you want to go at it without that, it's fine as well. As for brainstorming, of well, I love surprises so it doesn't bother me if this will be something completely new and unexpected. I'm a pantser anyway so...
I'm ready.

Yep, this will be raw and dirty.

Story sign-up is the last day of August.

Everyone would have to be very aware that this is for ALL levels of writing. If you are so professional you don't want to play, then don't. This is fun stuff, funny, challenging.

No nasty critiquing. All support, all for fun. Stephen King will NOT read this. NO ONE is going to be "discovered." This is totally goofy fun. I just can't stress that enough.

Everyone who signs up to write, YOU ARE AN ADULT AND RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF. If you choose to drop out, then let everyone know. It would be each writer's responsibility to log in every single day to see if it is there turn yet to write. And then DO IT.

Do we HAVE to be adult AND responsible at the same time?

Are you wanting me to add your name to be a writer?

Lol. I just hit the sign up thread.
