Official Crime and Punishment 2025 Story Event Support Thread

[BryanRichardson]

“Stories are to be submitted between September 8, 2025 and September 19, 2025, with a posting date of September 22, 2025.”

This seems to indicate all will be published on Sept 22. I would assume that to be the case and then maybe be pleasantly surprised if they are published as submitted.

In the past, the stories were published as submitted with the final list of all entries published on the posting date. However, things can change. I'll be submitting mine on 08SEP25 and see what happens ...

I plan to follow your thought process and submit early September as well. Thanks

I wonder if I have anything already, ready that I can post this year. I don't think I can have another Vengence story ready in time.

Hopefully, my prose will be accepted for this challenge

 

[Dreamerman77]

Almost finished. My story needs just one more 'read aloud' -edit and its done. 32k words, editing while listening, it's hours of work, after work.

 

[Aoife_from_Ulster]

It really looks like we will have a good amount of stories. I am super excited

 

[SmilingLez]

What I enjoyed most in this challenge is the fact that I could go non fiction dark with my prose

BTW, is there a rule that the story has to be completely new? I have an old one that I've been wanting to touch up and it might qualify.... But if that's not the spirit of the competition, I'll dream up some other characters to kill off.

No rule, actually, the idea is really for new stories.

This is how it was done last year, and I imagine it will be the same this year.

Hmmm just when I think I have an idea I don't! This is the toughest one so far that I've joined in with!

 

[BryanRichardson]

I’m about halfway done with the story, I’ve just got to decide how much sex to add in during the second pass.

So, I am definitely submitting my story to the event. The Cupcake Caper is a farce based on a joke in the AH coffee house a few weeks ago. It is my first attempt here at humor. It is an image to Thomas Crown Affair (the 1999 one not the original from the 60's) and To Catch a Thief as they would have been done by folks from the Little Mischief Theater with some flavors from FireSign Theater (predates almost all of you, I know, but they were a big influence on my teenaged humor). With an all lesbian cast. I don;t expect much from it, but it has been fun to write.

An all-lesbian cast only raises expectations...

Don't get them too high. I fully expect this to be my new worst story. Comedy is hard and it is thick and heavy with groaners, and I mean bad jokes, not orgasming lesbians, although it does have a few of those.
