2006-02-05 [Kuzco]: Count me in, but don't count a great piece from me. I'll do my best but I doubt I have the vocabulary proficiancy to make your skin crawl ;)

2006-02-05 [SleepingDragon]: Cool man. I thought I could count on seeing you as you are intent on joining every contest! :D And no worries man, your best keeps getting better. Your last piece didn't make my skin crawl but it made other stuff happen. ;)

2006-02-05 [Kuzco]: hahahahaha, sure man. Cool banners by the way.

2006-02-05 [Emily]: I love those banners. :D

2006-02-05 [DorianP]: I'd love to join, but I doubt I have the time :(

2006-02-05 [Emily]: One always has the time to write. :)

2006-02-05 [Kuzco]: Wise Emily is, listen to her you should. ;)

2006-02-06 [SleepingDragon]: Go Yoda!

2006-02-06 [DorianP]: I'll try to find some time then :p

2006-02-06 [Kuzco]: hahaha, recognize!

2006-02-06 [SleepingDragon]: Cool, glad to have you [DorianP]! Thanks about the badges people :)

2006-02-06 [SleepingDragon]: I've put up a short sample. I'm not sure it's all that horrifying but it's something for now. I may write something else I'm happier with later.

2006-02-10 [DorianP]: Working on a piece. don't know if it will turn out the way I want it to. It will be finished in time, anyway.

2006-02-11 [*Amy*]: I decided that i would give it a try. doesn't help everyone in the household is nagging about it:P Damn this family of writers!:D *LOL* just kidding!:)

2006-02-11 [SleepingDragon]: woot!

2006-02-13 [*Amy*]: yay, i posted my story! Have fun reading it:P

2006-02-13 [SleepingDragon]: Yea, that was a fun read...A little close to home though. ;) Good to see the roster filling up. Gonna be some fun reading the entries as they come in :)

2006-02-13 [Kuzco]: My entry's in and I'm freaking sleepy! *yawns* wasn't as "graphical" as I wanted to be but I can't do anything about, it is beyond my 'vocabularic' ability if you know what I mean ;). Hope it's good though...

2006-02-14 [SleepingDragon]: Cool man. *Is having fun reading the entries*

2006-02-14 [*Amy*]: Loved the entry Kuzco. Very horrific:0 Gave me the spooks. ;) Great Job

2006-02-25 [DorianP]: grmbl... trying...

2006-02-25 [Emily]: I've finished halfway with my story!

2006-02-26 [SleepingDragon]: I'm considering extending the deadline on this. It was a tad short to begin with. What do people think? Say...the Ides of March (15th)?

2006-02-26 [DorianP]: yes! yes!

2006-02-26 [*Amy*]: its fine with me. more competition.

2006-02-27 [SleepingDragon]: Ok, the deadline has been changed. Maybe we can pick up a few more participants too :) Still excited to see these one's in progress!

2006-02-27 [DorianP]: Thanks

2006-03-02 [SleepingDragon]: Welcome [Winkx]

2006-03-02 [Emily]: I got stuck...

2006-03-02 [SleepingDragon]: * wishes 'un-stuckness' at [Emily]* Still plenty-o-time :)

2006-03-02 [Winkx]: Thank you...And if it helps [Emily] so am I. (Stuck that is.)

2006-03-03 [DorianP]: So there are three of us ;)

2006-03-03 [*Amy*]: Don't give up! you can do it! :D

2006-03-03 [Winkx]: Maybe I could write one of my nightmares......? My doctor calles them nightterros or something...

2006-03-04 [*Amy*]: night terrrors? those are very scary! I have a type of night terror. I must say, i could really do without:S

2006-03-04 [Winkx]: Oh I know...I've been in the hospital for hurting myself with those. They're awful. *shakes*

2006-03-04 [SleepingDragon]: The sample is about night terrors (wonders if anyone knows it's there) :)

2006-03-04 [Winkx]: Ohhhhhhh Realy?

2006-03-04 [SleepingDragon]: Yup, it's a shorty too. Don't take long to read. I had thoughts of one day making it the beginning of something much longer. Who knows, maybe?

2006-03-04 [Winkx]: Kinda souds like my short story. Everyone wnats to know what happens to my characters. Almost sound like they think they're real. :)

2006-03-04 [*Amy*]: I have been debating about writing a story about my night terrors. I really think I could make it good. Don't know, I will really have to think about that one. :S

2006-03-04 [DorianP]: I'm doing that already...:( well, then I have to make it as original as possible...

2006-03-04 [Winkx]: Choices Choices

2006-03-13 [SleepingDragon]: Just a reminder with a couple days left... I judge the pieces as they sit on the 15th. Look 'em over folks. Make any last minute corrections or changes if you will. It would really suck to have to mark down good entries on grammar and such when there is time to get it right! Good luck to all!
