May we use more than three quotes in the piece? Or is it three and three only?

For this you can only use three quotes from the list, one from each column, though you can have as much dialogue as you want.

Hope that answers your question, Ari.

Ta,
Cal.

I'm thinking about it, but don't hold me to that. Razz I've picked my quotes and a basic plot, now I just need to write it... Razz

I know you said a short story, but could it be a script?

Here's my late night entry. I hope it reads all right.

http://www.youngwriterssociety.com/topic26811.html


My quotes, in order: Come on! We can a have good flirt later!

You know, if we were really dating, this would be the part where I’d be forced to kiss you.

It’s an interpretation.

I kept putting this off in hope that my laptop would get fixed in time, but it hasn't. I will not be entering. I wrote two, but they're both stuck on my laptop and I don't know when it'll be fixed or if they'll still be there.

Would have loved to enter, but I can't now.

Sorry.

Aww, that sucks, honey.

I hope you get your laptop back with all your stuff still there. If you do, post them anyway, I'd love to read them.

The contest is still open until 11:59 PM PST TONIGHT 3/11/08

Ta,
Cal.
