Hey--if we post our entry in a thread, what topic should it be in? (Lounge?)

EDIT: made it in the club. Sorry if that wasn't what you meant. :P

Oh, please take me off the tag list. I said it in the club, I've changed my mind and won't be participating as a writer after all. I'll still review, when I get time, but my *big novel* needs my attention too much. I added like 5000 words to it in the past week 8D
So yeah, the four horsemen and everything else will have to wait for

If we can't make the review day deadline to submit our chapters, can we post the chapter on our progress thread as long as we meet the LMS deadline and word count?

Mine's finished! I'll be sure to follow that advice, but I need to correct some stuff first. I'm being so anxious with all of this XD

@bluewaterlily, you may want to ask OliveDreams about that, because I'm not 100% sure.

You still have to submit your second chapter before it's midnight in your timezone, but if Review Day ends after that time, you have to post your story (enspoilered, please) in the submissions thread.
But the Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Outstanding Opening Line Award

I walk into sixth period to the sight of Eric eating a banana.
- Strange

‘Hello, I'm calling from E-Quire about a debt owed to the Orange County Library System' had just made Elijah's list of sentences he never wanted to hear again.
- Arkhaion

’I Love That Line’ Award

An angry countryman who thought the chains around his wrists and neck meant nothing.
- ScarlettFire

She blew a bubble with her gum and popped it, a burst of mint hanging in the air between them, before spitting it out into the trash can.
- Arkhaion

Ravishing Rewrite Award

This award goes to SpiritedWolfe for their edited rewrite of their first LMS chapter. SpiritedWolfe was nominated as their rewrite has now got the reader “immediately hooked” and will be “following it from now on.”
You can check out the rewrite here: Apparition: The Game - Ch. 1 (Rewrite)

Congratulations all survivors & award winners! Nothing like a bit of praise from your peers. Let me know if any of you are coming back as Rogues.

Roll on next week!

@AdrianMoon Um, I'm writing mine. I planned to submit it tomorrow. And I kinda have no choice anyway.

No but seriously, thanks for the warning, it's always good to remind people of the LMS, but don't worry, chapters are comin' :)
