Halloween Contest Support Thread

[Boxlicker101]

I am yet to post a story on lit, but I think I shall try to enter this contest once I get the story that I'm currently working on up.

Hi, Lalo, and welcome to Lit. and the AH. It's a fun place to hang out and argue politics and discuss writing and show pictures of your grandchildren.

Nice not to be the only new-be

I am yet to post a story on lit, but I think I shall try to enter this contest once I get the story that I'm currently working on up.

I’m so glad to see someone post with fewer entries than me.
Good luck in advance on the contest.

Question

Giant Rooster dressed in an Elvis Costume hiding in the bushes outside the door of a mansion waiting for party goers dressed as Hookers. My story is coming together nicely

Is your rooster going to have a big pecker?

 

[Jenny_Jackson]

Is your rooster going to have a big pecker?

ROFLMAO.

I'm at 1000+ words now.

Here's a pinch -

A knock on the door and Annie answered, her smile as wide as ever. “Ah, Garth. I wondered if you would visit today,” Annie said stepping aside to allow him to pass.

Garth pushed into the small, cozy room. Opening his coat, he stood by the warm fireplace. “Aye, Annie, me dear. I knew by yer smile this morn you were in a mood for a bit of …”

“Garth you naughty bugger. What makes you think I would want anything to do with the likes of you?” Annie tried desperately to hide her grin.

“Oh come now, Annie. You know you are me true love,” Garth said pressing close to Annie. His arm snaked around her waist and pulled her against him.

“And here you are,” Annie said, “smelling of whiskey thinking I would have you here while me father is gone on the boat. And professing true love no less. That’s funny. For I’ve heard you’ve have been tickling one of the wenches at the inn.”

“Tis a lie!” protested Garth.

Annie only laughed.

“Oh, tis a game you want then, wench?” Garth said laughing as he kissed Annie full on the lips. Annie slumped against him and pressed her body even harder against his.

It was not long before clothing flew and Garth grunted between Annie’s legs right there upon the floor of the cottage in front of the fireplace. Annie screamed and moaned and came with a body wrenching shudder just as Garth’s seed spewed deep inside her. Garth rolled off Annie and lay beside her on the floor.

This is something very different than I've written before. I'm not sure I like it.

Bugger Jenny, I was going to do that one!

Hi, Lalo, and welcome to Lit. and the AH. It's a fun place to hang out and argue politics and discuss writing and show pictures of your grandchildren.

The internet is always a good place to show pictures of your loved ones.

I’m so glad to see someone post with fewer entries than me.
Good luck in advance on the contest.

Oh dear, is that a disadvantage?

Oh well, thanks and good luck to you too. I was thinking of something Lovecraft inspired.

 

[EesomeBeastie]

Bugger Jenny, I was going to do that one!

Yes please! Where does the queue start?

Oh, and to keep this thread on track, I've started on mine - a modern re-imagining of Tam o' Shanter. In verse. And Scots dialect.

Can you enter a poem in a theme contest?

Anyhow, I'm ambitious this year, and intend to enter three stories. One of them is ready to go.

 

[Jenny_Jackson]

Yeah, I finished the first draft of mine last night. There's plenty of time to work on it now. It's about the most HORRID thing possible on Halloween - you relatives showing up and telling you they are staying for a month.

 

[EesomeBeastie]

Can you enter a poem in a theme contest?

Good question. I'd assumed that as since erotic poetry is just another category, then yes, provided it meets all other requirements including the minimum length (400 words, I think, so it would have to be a significant piece). But I've another story in the pipeline too, so even it doesn't count I won't be completely knocked out. I've send a query in to check this point and will let you lot know the answer.

So it's going in the incest category?

 

[Jenny_Jackson]

You haven't seen my relatives, have you?

I call it INVASION OF THE FAT FARM

 

[EesomeBeastie]

So your scary story can be about murdering them in the dead of night and rendering their corpses down to make candles.

Oh, there has to be sex in there somewhere, doesn't there.

OK, make that accidentally seeing them have sex, and being so disgusted you murder them in the dead of night and render their corpses down to make candles...

That section will be know throughout the land as "THE HIPPO HUMP SCENE"

Well hippos manage it, apparently...

I’m a sucker for dialect stories.

I liked the script. Can’t wait to see it in the contest. Not to mention that I’m so jealous that you’ve finished yours.

As for me, I’m guessing I’ve written over ten thousand words. Every one of them is now on crumpled paper rolling around in my laptops electronic trash can. I’m having trouble getting a handle on this contest.

I have no idea how I write. I tried laying out a story in outline but that was a fiasco. I get ideas and sort of start writing to see where they go. After a page or two I either continue or throw it away. If I continue, I never have any idea where it will end until I finish writing. It's rather like the story tells itself through my fingers.

 

[Jenny_Jackson]

Ha! Story done and just as twisted as I am

 

[TxRad]

Ha! Story done and just as twisted as I am

A line from a story I'm working on:

"Man, she's about as twisted as a cheap garden hose."

Good Luck

 

[Darkniciad]

If I can't pull myself out of the other story I'm writing, I'm never going to get my Halloween story started. This is another one where I know where it's going, but I'm just along for the ride as the characters tell me how they're getting there.

Damn, I missed that.

Hippo's Humping

I have no idea how I write. I tried laying out a story in outline but that was a fiasco. I get ideas and sort of start writing to see where they go.

Thanks Jenny, Your mention of Hippo’s Humping, started me thinking. My story line will be about a Greek couple, the Hipopotisians. A childless over weight couple. The Misses, accidentally suffocates little children when she hugs them to her breast. On Halloween eve. Mr. Hipopotisian rolls the misses in flower, in an effort to make her look like a ghost. He notices a wet spot and nine months later they finely have a child of their own. I’m not sure if this child should suffer the fate of all the others.

Couldn’t have done it without you. I’ll be sure and make honorable mention of your contribution to this literary work.

The truth is, I’m several thousand words into a story. I’m grateful this thread is here. My thanks to all for the help, information and the distractions that I need.

I am going to use the Halloween contest as my intro to all of you lovely and fun people. I haven't decided what to write on yet. When I do I will let you all know.

P.S. How many of the people here have disabilites?

PPS Looking forward to replies to this message.

Apparently for some reason I can't spell disabilites today. Sorry about that. Smiles. It helps to be able to see the keyboard and as I am now totally blind mistakes happen. Hugs to all and Happy Halloween/All Hallows/whatever you all like to call it ...

"Yes, I'm scary. Get used to it."

Hi, Lady Soket, and welcome to the AH, although I see you have been lurking for some time already.

I don't know about disabilities, but I have been a dirty old man since I was a teenager, a half a century ago.

Welcome to the contests and the AH

A couple of the people here only have one eye. (That would be me and Rumple) Rumple is having retina problems right now and wrinkles on th eyeball so he's sitting on the sidelines mostly. There is another blind person running around on the feedback forum from time to time. She uses a read/speech program that gives her fits from time to time.

there are many with physical ills scattered around too numerous to post.

Just don't ask about the mental health, you might learn more than you want tp know. (Read that last as a big grin.)

And this is a rose

I (as are most of the regulars here) am morally handicapped. Does that count?
