2011-09-26 [Ash]: JUDGEMENT ON DRABBLES
The winner this month is: [Product of a Primal Urge]! His entry not only covered all aspects of this challenge, but also evoked some emotion, something I found lapse in the other two entries. In second place is [Eleanor]! Her piece is filled with imagery and excellent use of all three items. In third place is [Annie]! I found this piece to make me wonder who would be buying the fish bowl... It seems like something I would do. :)

Congrats to all!

2011-09-26 [Product of a Primal Urge]: :] Thank you [Ash]. Also, I liked your entries [Eleanor] and [Annie]!

2011-09-26 [Eleanor]: Thanks. It was fun. I love trying to say a lot with very few words.

2011-09-26 [Annie]: Haha :)

2011-09-27 [Product of a Primal Urge]: Yeah, it can be a big challenge. Have you ever been to Oneword.com? they give you a word and you have sixty seconds to write to it. I'm not too involved there, but sometimes it at least makes me write something/anything.

2011-09-30 [Ash]: I could so do that...

I got 'half'

There was half a glass of milk on the counter next to the newspaper. A dwindling cigarette butt sat in the glass holder in the center of the table. ‘He’s going…’ She said in her head. She looked out the window and saw the dust kick up through the blinds.

2011-09-30 [Product of a Primal Urge]: Everyone gets the same word. You get one word every 24 hours :D

I wrote this for half:
I stayed on my half of the bed, just staring as you lie away reading in the dim light of one bedside lamp. I watched your eyes start to fall shut as your brain was sinking into dreams that had nothing to do with the essay you were reading. I watched your lips silently forming each letter, caught in a gape when you were treading back over the same sentence to seek meaning. I stayed on my half only until you put the paper down.

2011-09-30 [Eleanor]: I got "romantic" and embarrassingly submitted my entry with a typo. Drats! So unlike me. I've corrected it here.

"It's so romantic," thought Michelle. She laid out the frilly negligé on her bedspread and thought about all the times she had brought it on trips and never worn it. This time, she vowed, would be different. She folded it up carefully and packed it in her overnight bag. Josh would notice her. He would. She could practically taste it.

2011-09-30 [Product of a Primal Urge]: Aw, typos happen. It's okay :D

Ooh, I love "She could practically taste it" [Eleanor].
And "dwindling cigarette", [Ash].

I have something like this going on my Action Writing page, if anyone is interested. This page specifically: ActionWriting: Give me a word

2011-10-01 [Ash]: Well, while everyone is still commenting on this... ENTER DRABBLES! :D

2011-10-02 [Annie]: It feels so warm and cozy to see all the updates about page changes and comments on WC again. :}

2011-10-05 [Product of a Primal Urge]: Oh, so do I just snag the First Place badge for my house from winning the last round?

2011-10-05 [Annie]: Yep, just write <* img* :* stuff/drab-badge1.gif > in your description, minus the spaces and stars. :)

2011-10-05 [Product of a Primal Urge]: Alrighty! I didn't want to just grab it if I wasn't supposed to :D

2011-10-05 [Annie]: Haha, no worries. Most contests are that way around here. :)

2011-10-05 [Product of a Primal Urge]: Ah cool. Are you going to join this one again?

2011-10-06 [Annie]: I should be able to get one in later this month, looks like it doesn't close until the 31st so I think I can make it. :)

2011-10-06 [Product of a Primal Urge]: Cool :D
