FAWC 5: Line, Please!

[slyc_willie]

You should have it now.

I do indeed.

 

[sr71plt]

I feel the time on this dragging on. And you know what that means.

 

[slyc_willie]

Go ahead. You know you want to.

Mines been sent in. I'm early for the first time ever in one of these

Now to try and catch that nude bunny of mine and make it into a story

Dang, xellie, I'm jealous! You're usually my partner in last-minute crime! Guess I'd better get my ... ass ... in gear.

In a previous FAWC, we did a "basket" that contained four randomly chosen "ingredients." The idea was that it was like the cooking show Chopped. No one knew what was in their basket until they asked for it and I randomly assigned the ingredients. If they finished the story and sent it to me, they could then ask for another basket.

So I figure a time-limit FAWC would be pretty much the same way. I'd have a list of several topics or scenarios, and when each writer said they were ready, I'd send them a PM with their randomly-selected topic.

Wait ... so there would be a time limit/word limit AND a randomly selected topic? No fair!

She's an overachiever, like Swilly. I'll be joining you at the last minute. Too much work for the next week.

Maybe I will. I'm still waiting for my first submission to post.

Thank god. At least I can still count on you, pl. If you start submitting shit early, I might actually have to start changing my ways!

I had an unfair advantage. I was stuck at home waiting for a UPS delivery today. I got on a roll and got it finished. It won't be a contender, but what the hell. Some people might like it; some may very well hate the twist I threw in.

Pot... Kettle... Black... LOL!

Not very much over-achieving on this one, from me though. .

One of several listed topics, time limited and with a one-page minimum is what I'm leaning toward. But seeing as how FAWC 6 won't happen for a while, it may change.

Maybe I will. I'm still waiting for my first submission to post.

There's always room for more. If you can, great. FAWCs seem to be pretty good at bringing out writers' best efforts.

Update: eight submissions thus far, from the following authors:

xelliebabex
sr71plt

Swilly

Heading out for the evening (Yay! Date night!). See you all tomorrow.

Have fun. Hope it ends with a sloppy something-or-other.

I realize something about finishing early.

The waiting really IS the hardest part. .

Ok, Tom Petty.

Ok, Tom Petty.

Lol. I couldn't paste the YouTube link using my phone, or you would have gotten it!

"I'm tired of screwin' up, tired of going down, tired of myself, and tired of this town."

I sing that line to myself over and over when I am having bad days. It's one of my "go-to" compulsions.

 

[slyc_willie]

A gentleman never tells.

With that said, we did have a rather interesting time in a hidden little nook on the Riverwalk.

Almost got caught, too . . . .

Yeah, it's gonna be a long ten days. You could always write another one, if you wanted to.

Overachievers!! Making the rest of us slackers feel bad.

Objective achieved, ey?

 

[Swilly]

That going to be a story, Slyc?

 

[Aynmair]

LOL that's exactly what I thought, too - for Nude Day?

 

[jomar]

Ok, since you name the entered authors I'll ask...do we include the story description?

 

[slyc_willie]

One of them was.

Not enough nudity for Nude Day, I don't think. Maybe I'll use it for Summer Lovin'

Ok, since you name the entered authors I'll ask...do we include the story description?

Yes, please include the description and nine tags.

Yeah. I was wondering how much nudity you could fit in a "nook."
