The Official Author's Hangout Halloween Contest Support Thread

Welcome to the: The Official Author's Hangout Halloween Contest Support Thread.

You still have plenty of time to enter so get to writing.

Just remember to beware of fake contests.
 
thank you mr racist...

...and please dear AHers continue to post on this thread. I believe we now have a backlog of 5 ugly texan QUOTES to dispose of and I'd like to finish them on this thread and not have to carry them over to the next contests support thread.

And while here I'd like to congratulate ace for hitting the nail on the head on the baron issue.

If he actually did what he was accused of (and I've yet to see any evidence) we still have to ask what rule he broke. pauletta, moonman, darkboy, the guy from england etc., etc. have demonstrated that even if he had broken a rule (which he hasn't) we have had no evidence that the QUEEN enforces any of the rules she has written down.

You hate all people different than you, don’t you tex…

The following is post # 1065 on the a.i.r. contest support thread. He also posted exactly the same thing in posts #1001, 1004, 1008, 1010, 1012, 1015, 1022, 1024, 1026, 1030, 1034, 1044, 1046, 1051, 1055, 1061 and now 1065. The same post EIGHT times on the first page. FIVE on the next page! Now he’s up to FOUR on the third page! The same post 17 times. He's now up to 230 times posting the same thing (unless I’ve missed a few). Mind you this isn't a record for him.

So unfortunately I’m forced to share his disgusting posts on this thread. There are no free rides for enablers. Sorry…

are these three old babes enabling hate in AHland? Why? Do they get off on anti-Semitism?

Why would our tiger lily threadmistress stand with the hate-mongerers? Simple jealousy? I guess the a.i.r. thread has been making hers look bad...

post #1065 on the A.I.R. Contest Support Thread. Let's all look at our AHland racists posts. We're prepared to expose him for what he is...sad really...

How is telling the truth about your fake contest and you, racist?

Care to explain that.

In any case the story got tossed out and no one can do that but Laurel so take it up with her.
 
This is going to kill me, but at one point I swore I read something on here that a contest story could be something you have previously published, but not on lit.

so another words if someone wanted to submit something they put up on Amazon or somewhere else, they could put it here, but it can;t be something already published here.

I'm wondering who realized it was the same story from last year in the first place. I mean it got through the review process.

Disclaimer

Because of the way this site works these figures will not be totally up-to-date. For a given story the score shown on:

  • The category page
  • The author's page
  • The toplists page

can all be different.

Also it appears that various pages update at different times of the day, sometimes quite infrequently.

Please do not PM me asking for more detailed information. I do not wish to skew contest results by giving a target for voting manipulation.

Contest page: 2012 Halloween Contest
 
Had a good day today. An editor offered to edit my last story that is four chapters long, over 22,000 words. (not a contest entry) Made me happy and I wrote a half of a story for the contest. Might submit it if I get it finished in time. I can usually write a short story in one or two sittings.

I'll need to get it edited, when finished. Just a story off the top of my head. Nothing for anyone to worry about. Just like being part of the contest. Haven't missed one since 2005.

I am starting my end chapter/sequence tonight for the third time. At some point, I shall also have to cook dinner. Then I have to go to work tomorrow, so I can't stay up very late... and my job does not really allow for writing while on the clock, even though I know there will likely be considerable idle time.

There may be many impacts shared between my head and my desk before this is over.
 
Just submitted mine. I hate to be this late, but at one point didn't think I'd have time to get in at all.

I also had the goal at the beginning of the year to hit every contest except Earth Day which just eludes me interest wise.

So let the flaming from the incest purists begin.

Great to hear it. Wouldn't be a contest without one. Keep writing! Good luck

How did you post the info for Thursday the 18th, when today is Thursday the 18th?
 
Well this sucks. This is the first time I've submitted an entry and it hasn't been up the next day.
 
You might be on the ten o'clock shift.

You were correct. Not sure what time it went uip, but only knew because at 10:45 I got an e-mail from lit feedback.

It's not like I had hopes for it anyway, but you do lose a lot of votes with those extra few hours. Good news is its Friday so I should get a lot of weekend traffic.

You were correct. Not sure what time it went uip, but only knew because at 10:45 I got an e-mail from lit feedback.

It's not like I had hopes for it anyway, but you do lose a lot of votes with those extra few hours. Good news is its Friday so I should get a lot of weekend traffic.


That's weird, your story wasn't placed on top with the rest of the Halloween entries. It was placed in the middle with the regular incest stories.

I'm actually editing my original post here, because I just checked and I'm #4 on the list for incest stories under what looks like a couple of more "themed" stories.

Finally done with writing mine. Just gotta spend the afternoon editing and then I can put it up. Just under 30k words... when am I gonna learn to write SHORT stories?

(Mostly I just wanted to bump the thread.)

When you figure out the trick to the short stories, please send me a PM. I've been trying to figure it out for ten years. :rolleyes:
