Excellent! I'll try my best to get an entry ready.

[Prophet Tenebrae]

Glad to hear you're going to enter Echowing, excitement thus far hasn't overwhelming...

[ashe5k]

Hrmm.. to give a shot at this or not....If only I had more free time. No promises on my end.

[Prophet Tenebrae]

No worries, at least you're admitting that... there's usually a whole bunch of people saying "Oh, I'm all over this", who are never heard from again.

Anyway, I know some people usually have questions... so ask away, or e-mail or IM or stop by the chatroom etc.

I think the deadline is a bit short. Only a month, especially with an American holiday thrown in there?

I have an idea brewing, but I'd need more time than 5 weeks to execute it.

Ten, I'd think you'd have more success with this if it wasn't directly in the middle of the American summer. Perhaps pushing it off next year to September-November?

[Prophet Tenebrae]

In my experience if you give people too much time, they sit around and wait until the last minute.

Anyway, it's started now - if there is a chronic lack of interest, I'll consider extending the deadline right now, Angelus, I'll be staying in the bed I just made.

Hm...this could turn out to be really fun!

Where are the results and stories posted from the second contest? I can't seem to find them.

I've got an idea for a good story , unfortunately it's far more TG themed then BE themed. It also doesn't help that I'm not exactly the worlds greatest writer nor do I have the attention span to spend more then a day or 2 writing something. It's worth a shot though I suppose.

[Rob_Anon]

no less than 5,000 words?! Jeez, i wrote less for my Degree!

Got an idea for a story, it goes...

"There once was a girl with small tits
Who wanted to grow bigger bits
She cast out a spell
But gave out a yell
cos instead of big tits she got zits"

48 cents please
