Monthly Writing Assignment Discussion (November Edition)

[Sgt. Grub k1ller]

See, I have yet to prefect that writing schedule Cros seems to have mastered. A while back, he was pumping out a chapter a week. Me? It takes me half a month to come up with an idea, and the other half to get off my lazy ass and write it.

Now, I was saddened when I saw there was a prize for this one. I have way too much crap to do irl to get any writing done. Regretfully.

[Croswynd]

There's prizes forever from now on.

[DragonzZilla]

There's prizes forever from now on.

Awesome. You know what, I have a request for next month. I know I have no power in these words, but I think it'd be cool to have next month's topic be 'repairs' or 'technology'.

[Croswynd]

In order to make requests, you have to win. :P

[DragonzZilla]

Exactly. So nope.

Here's some awesome artwork for the Assignment, courtesy of the lovely and talented TheRealBigBoss.

Bosslady's artwork once again never fails to impress.

[TheRealBigBoss]

Lol, thanks but I think the first one might be getting changed to this update...

While I'm here, might as well mention some trivia. The text on the banner is from Aspho Fields.

[Croswynd]

I think I'll use both. The gold will head the discussion thread while the ink one will head the entry thread, because they're both amazing.

Good idea, that way, even DragonzZilla can't get confused about which thread is which.

[Croswynd]

Hah! That actually made me chuckle a bit. Nice one.

Forever a Drone...

Hey Cros, are we going to keep the King Raven theme going into next month now that we have somebody willing to take part in it? Because I'll write for it too if I don't have to worry about winning by default. And I kinda liked the King Raven theme.

[SKORGE]

Fool, you're not going to win this without any competition. I may not be Boss, Wis, but I'm in. I just need some free time. I fear it may be another last-day rush to beat the deadline again.

[N1ssassa]

Can you all just write really crappy stories so I can win the book? Haven't read any of them D:

[Croswynd]

You all have until March 31st for this topic. It will not be the same for next month. :P

[SKORGE]

Fear not, you'll do fine!

Just give it a shot!

[Croswynd]

He's already written his entry. You should move it or lose it, the rest of you.

[SKORGE]

I'm going to smack you in the face with an entry and leave your lip drippin', sir.


You okay with that, Crossy?

[Croswynd]

I'm going to smack you in the face with an entry and leave your lip drippin', sir.


You okay with that, Crossy?

As long as there's more than one entry, I'll be happy.

[SKORGE]

Fine, fine... I'll be on my way. Be back when done.

[N1ssassa]

Hurry Skorge! Time is short, make haste, comrade!

[Croswynd]

Nice, SKORGE. Also, why would you use [quote] when you have [indent] now? I don't like reading full italicized entries >.> Not that you can change it now, anyway, according to the rules.

Edit: Entries thus far are graded.

[N1ssassa]

When/where do we see our grades?

[Croswynd]

Grades will be posted in the entry thread tomorrow around 12pm Central Standard Time or around there.

[N1ssassa]

Sweetness, sounds cool.

[N1ssassa]

Not sure if you usually do this or not, but if you wouldn't mind including my errors with my grade and things I can alter to improve, that would be very much appreciated.

[Croswynd]

Not sure if you usually do this or not, but if you wouldn't mind including my errors with my grade and things I can alter to improve, that would be very much appreciated.

I have a general overview of any mistakes made in all my reviews. If you wish, I can go back and address each mistake individually, should there be any.

[N1ssassa]

That would be great. Other than spelling errors, at least. Those don't really matter to me. But any grammatical errors, better ways to use the words, things like that. I'm just looking to get better and anything that will aid in that is welcome.

[Croswynd]

As ever, if someone wants to judge (that isn't entering this month), contact me via PM. Keep in mind you have to have your scores and feedback ready to go by tomorrow. Any of you can offer your judging services, not just members with large numbers in their post counter, as long as you offer valid feedback and opinions.

[Croswynd]

Scores are up, dirtbags. Don't come back again.

[SKORGE]

Well aren't you cute, sunshine... its still the 31st here so pappasaynowayjose to you!

[Croswynd]

Real scores are up. Congatulations, SKORGE, you win! Also, I'll send you a list of topics for this month. To get your free signed book, I'm not sure how to do it, so go bother FL4K and tell her you won this month's contest with a link to it.

[SKORGE]

Thanks for the feedback, Cros. I'm actually surprised I got away with it this time around, seeing as how N1 and Levy both put out some excellent pieces.

Oh boy, you just know Flak's going to be happy to see me!

[Croswynd]

Aye, it was great all around. Wish I had some more entries, but quality is better than quantity, I suppose.

[TheRealBigBoss]

Thanks for the feedback, Cros. I'm actually surprised I got away with it this time around, seeing as how N1 and Levy both put out some excellent pieces.

Oh boy, you just know Flak's going to be happy to see me!

Congrats SKORGE, you did good.

Lol, yeah, I think you'll make Flak's day when you PM her.

BTW, just PM her with your ASL, and you'll be fine, trust me.

[Croswynd]

Enjoy your new topic, courtesy of SKORGE. Respite!

[SKORGE]

Congrats SKORGE, you did good.

Lol, yeah, I think you'll make Flak's day when you PM her.

BTW, just PM her with your ASL, and you'll be fine, trust me.

Thank you, I wish you had entered, would have been good to read some from you.

Oh yeah, a PM with ASL as the heading would be fantastic!

[TheRealBigBoss]

Thank you, I wish you had entered, would have been good to read some from you.

Soon SKORGE, soon. I'm being tactical. Only when opportunity presents itself, does the Boss strike!

[DragonzZilla]

You shall give me Badgerfrog or give me your life!
