This is going to haunt me for the rest of my natural life, isn't it.

I'd imagine so... I suppose that's what you get when you start giving tough love to Chaotic things and then tell very cynical/sarcastic people like me on forums about it. :)

So when do we get the long, unbiased  story? I'm pretty sure Chaos is embellishing things a bit. :D

I'll have something for Monday :)  I finally got off my butt and wrote.

Don't you usually get *on* your butt to write? Or are you one of those really unique people that writes while standing? :)

Actually I write wherever I get the ideas.  I have a notebook for that very purpose :)

I've got the very first draft of the first chapter of Deathday Magic ready...er, well, ready to be destroyed, at least :P

So, question. We submit on Mondays? For some reason I was under the impression it was Sundays. In that case, I've got something ready for Monday. Sorry everyone :D

Oh, and I'm also interested in this Chaos+Silk story. :)

I like basketball, hanging out with my friends, reading, slamming a garbage can into a pimp or two with magical heavenly powers. You know, teenager stuff.

Yeah, the official day for submission is Monday.  Some people (myself included) will occasionally send off the email Sunday night so that it's waiting in people's inboxes on Monday morning.

That's probably what I'll be doing, since I work nights on the weekends. Early Monday Morning, I'll shoot it over.

 LTU and Cynic, too, methinks. I might actually have some work to do critiquing next week. :)

After much college and scholarship applying, I am (nearly) back from the dead. I can try to submit something tomorrow, if you'd like, or if we're too busy I can wait until next week. Either way, I need to get going again, or my book will fizzle. It already hates me for leaving it with no effort whatsoever for 3 weeks.

Anyway............

Oh, to all the numerous people who have submitted....pretty much anytime in December or January, I promise, I'm getting to critiques. I just haven't had time recently. I now have a life again, though, so I should be able to get at least some done tomorrow as well.

Chaos/Silk (Chalk?) - Just let me know if you'd prefer I submit or wait till next week.
