Writing Challenges --- You want in?
ThePriestess and I have one going on now but I am curious how many people are interested in participating in these going forward. ThePriestess and I have been talking about these for a while now.
If you are interested in participating in future writing challenges, please message either her or I and let us know. We will be doing these regularly going forward, and we would love to have a lot of participation.
At this point we will do them by invite and by Forum post. Do you have a preference one way or ther other?
Would you like them to be judged and prizes awarded? Say 150 points for first 100 for second 50 for third etc? Or does that number need to be higher? (Don't worry between us we have over 8000 so we can cover it LOL)
Please let us know if this is something that you are interested in participating in. We are looking to make this a true community and I think these type of things help out a lot.

Re: Writing Challenges --- You want in?
Wooo Hoooo YAY, I absolutely love a challenge, the more the merrier.
I am in, but then again you already knew that one Dom. LOL
I would like everyone to know that it is so much fun doing these challenges with Dom1n1ck. He is a fantastic writing partner.
And yes, it would be a blast if more people would join us in our play time with writing. LOL

Why do we have hearts when they break so easily?
Re: Writing Challenges --- You want in?
I believe that member-based challenges with a reward is a spendid idea! But, how would the member be able to give the reward?

Death... We all know of it, yet we all fear its aura. It leaves behind a lingering odor and commotion of emotions we wish not to organize. Some wish to shy away, yet we all end up meeting it someday. Some open their arms gratefully when that day comes... I wish to be one of those people.

Re: Writing Challenges --- You want in?
Meh, you can count me in... I think it sounds cool, but the invite sounds better, cause I check my message box every day and the forums and my Email rarely LOL...
Prizes are unnessasary for me... I just like to write

Hi guys,
you can transfer points using the review box (the black one found below poems/stories) as Timmie mentioned. We'd also be happy to transfer them for you (if needed), as well as pitch in with the prizes! Just let us know

Re: Writing Challenges --- You want in?
Invites are now swirling around for the new "Flip the Script" challenge. If you would like to participate and did not get an invite please let me know.
One word of caution for anyone wanting to participate. You must be a reviewer to play along. If you do not review then I am sorry these challenges are not for you.
I look forward to seeing all the amazing works you guys will come up with.

Ooooo how very exciting, I am looking forward to seeing what everyone can come up with.
I think it is great that the community is coming together to play, LOL that is what I call writing challenges. They are so much fun, and they stimulate the imagination.

Re: Writing Challenges --- You want in?
Hello vespertine-soul, you are more than welcome to play in the writing challenges with us.
We just completed one on Friday.
You are more than welcome to do that one if you would like.
The challenge was to make a list of 10 angry words and create a happy poem from them.
Then make a list of 10 happy poems and create an angry poem with them.
Actually, it is not limited to poems, you are more than welcome to create any style./genre of writing.
There will be another new challenge coming up, I just need to talk to Dom first to find out how he would like to do it.
Dom and I give points to other members that participate in the challenges.
They are so much fun.
Take care and I will look forward to playing with writing with you.

Re: Writing Challenges --- You want in?
Thank you to all who particpated. You guys astound me. You are a very talented group and the creativity is just off the charts. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all.
A new challenge will be coming soon, Priestess and I will get it together early next wekk and get the details out soon there after. I hope that all of you who particpated in this one, will up for another, and anyone who missed this one will be able to join in the next one. If you are interested message either ThePriestess or myself.
And once again... just ... well... Wow, you guys are amazing.
