I'd like to submit. I feel guilty because I haven't had time to critique everything yet, but I'll get to it someday! I promise!

I'd like to read more of your writing, vegetathalas. Just... don't read my last submission, whatever you do. You'll gouge your eyes out and never be able to write again. :P

As an aside, hopefully, in the next couple of weeks I'll be able to submit something. It will *not* be as bad as the last, I promise! Things will *happen*. It'll probably not be this next Monday, though. I'm trying to get caught up on work.
I don't have good days. I have great days, where I'm a magician ridding the world of all evil, or at least everything I don't like. And then I wake up, and it's back to work for me.

You'll definitely get something from me this week. It remains to be seen whether it will be a dirty cop out or not, however.

Ok, well since we're already busy and my outline is still only three-quarters of the way done, I'll wait until next week to submit. You WILL get something from me then,though. I get first dibs on next week.

Well Andrew, I think Operation Cop-out seems likely, so if you have something, feel free to submit it. Mine barely counts :P

I would have something if I'd seen this earlier today, but as is, I really do need to finish my outline before I go to the rewrite, and I'll have to do that tomorrow, so odds aren't looking good for monday. There is the possibility that I could maybe submit later in the week, but there are already three submitting not counting yours. I'll just go next week. It's easier for everyone involved. Plus that gives me enough time to give you all a semi-decent chapter.

EDIT: I just finished the outline following one character straight through, with none of the other character's plotlines (except where they cross, anyway). It's eight pages, not double spaced. Methinks it might be time to trim my plot just a little, especially since I have five viewpoint characters (well, ok, more like four and a half). Still, this should be a ridiculously large beast of a thing.

Oh, and I now know how my story ends. That's a good thing.

Endings help :)

You know, "Operation Cop-out" could be a cool name for a short story.

Endings do help. My ending changed four times today, each one getting progressively more awesome. I'm now way psyched about how my book ends.

When you actually have time, you could write "Operation Cop-out." I would probably read it. But you have to work on Rebirth first, because Methinks I like Rebirth quite a lot so far.

Don't worry, Falcon. I'll pad my fingers so the gouging will merely be a bruising.

Just joking.

I find it excessively funny that my spam feature lets through everyone's RE submissions... except my own.
