Discussion Thread for "Looking for America"

SIGH, I must have some sort of repellant attched to my writing, nobody seems able to finish one with me.

Sits in the corner of the bar, with a decent whisky, sipping it and watching the patrons as they come and go.
 
*drops a coin in the jukebox*

If you don't get a taker, I'll do you up right - and finish, too. Promise. ;)
 
Well, we finished it Marvels, done dusted, delivered on time (go to the main thread to see the latest offering).

Plus, guess what. One of our stories and no one died. :D
 
Uh oh. We must be slipping. I can feel some dread disease coming on... or... *leafs through the ledger of ideas* Maybe it's time for Pete to visit Bubba again?

Thank you for a lovely, lovely story, Professor.

"Yeah! What Maid said!"

Looking around for a writing partner...
 
Here bidder, bidder, bidder...

Ladies of Lit's SRP, may I announce that there are three (or more) delicious male writers awaiting partners for the next dance. (chris2c4u, clan_destine and OnHarry)

Come one, come all! There they are, friends. Lying there in all their radiant
beauty - eating on a raisin, grape, apricot, pomegranate, bowl of chittlin's, two bananas, three Hershey bars; sipping on a RC Co-cola, listenin' to their transistor, watchin' the Grand Ole Opry on the tube, readin' a Mad magazine while they sing, "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavor?"

Just walk up to one of them and say: "Let's twist again like we did last summer, baby!!" Or better yet... "Why don't we write together in 'Looking for America'?"

You know you want to! ;)

Thank you kindly for your story Clan and Lady M!

Who's next to step up and have a go? The lady up there (points to previous post) has a handy hint guide to how the thread works. Find yourself a partner and have a go.

It's fun!
 
Bangs the drum for the thread...It's got simple rules...

Tell the nice people how to find the main thread Maidy.
 
And so... here we go again!

Any volunteers?

Take a look at the opening post of this thread and the stories that have already been posted in the main thread.
It's not as difficult as it might seem. Honest. :)

"Looking for America"

Feel free to PM either Chris or myself if you have any questions or need a writing partner.
 
IT CAN"T BE DONE I SAY, as he bangs the talble, almost but not quite upsetting his beer, but the hereshy bars fell to the floor.

Sigh two strikes no walks to this batter, let's see what happens. Honest I don't bite, ...........................much, and I have had my shots, if I do.
 
He volunteered, I saw him! There - the chap in the pinstripes, quick, some woman bag him!
 
I find it interesting that the guys are more than willing but there is a distinct absence of women who are willing to take the challenge. Why is that? :confused:
 
I can't believe it's because of a lack of women at Lit..

Come on, ladies! Men are waiting, eager to write with you!

Perhaps we need a new sales technique. Maybe direct mail shots to the feminine gender?
 
That's not a prerequisite to write. The story just has to be set somewhere in the US.

Take a look at the thread. You'll see what I mean. :)
 
I have it on tape - CD and MissMeek are writing together. Hang on while I erm... make it a bit clearer...

Splice...Are you volunteering? *hopeful look*

Snip...Miss Meek...Well, it did cross my mind.

Paste...I'm always happy to assist as I can.

CD

There. See? So, who's starting?
 
Bump! Bump! Bump!
Did you ever ride a wump?
We have a Wump with just one hump. But,
we know a man called Mr. Gump.
Mr Gump has a seven hump Wump.
So...
if you
Bump! Bump!
Just jump on the hump on the Wump of Gump.
