Doing a Necon Contest
Aug. 28th, 2004 02:10 pmWrite a story in 50 words or less. Winner gets a bag of goodies from Necon 25.
-D: Interesting. Have you written your story?-
Yup, and signed up with ezboards so I could post it. Still waiting on my membership to the Necon board so I can put it up, though. Hopefully it won't be long -- the contest ends midnight September 1st (although I'm not sure if that means 12:01 A. M. September 1st, or 11:59 P. M. September 1st). I really want to give my story a chance. I also plan to put it up on my site once I submit it.
-M: That'll be interesting, to see a 50-word story.-
Well, to tell the truth, I want to put my original 85-word one up. I like that one better. That's for later, though.
-VD: So you're finally getting into writing original fiction?-
Yeah, somewhat. I wrote an original story too, but that needs some polishing. I'll never give up BTTF Fiction, though. I like crafting stories for you guys.
-VD2: *grin* Glad to hear it.-
Plus I have enough stories planned out to last me a few years. :p Honestly, the ideas will not leave me alone.
Doing some website work. I've added "A Doc and Marty Christmas," "The Changing Times," and "Back to the Future Part III 1/2" to the other page, and "For Love or Marty" and "True Hero" to trilogy. I'm going to be working on Chapter 11 of "World of Darkness" right now. I've made a checklist of all the stories I need to get on the site. To tell the truth, I need a few -- one for the site, one that tells me what I need to type up, and one that tells me which ones I need to write.
-D: You sound busy.-
Only in a writing sense. In a physical sense I'm relaxing and enjoying the end of summer. Luckily I also enjoy doing checklists. I'm weird like that.
-VD: Summer's going to end, you know. And then you'll be busy.-
Precisely why I want to get some of this stuff out of the way before the move and having to find a college and a job. I still have about a week left -- I need to get in some serious laziness.
-VD: Would that include putting up more of "Judgement Day?"-
-VD2: Or "World of Light?"-
"Judgement Day" is more likely, I need to send more chapters of "World of Light" out for a review. I should do that today or tomorrow.
-VD+VD2: *get ready to poke*-
I also need to finish the Sims album. I'll grab some extra butter for VampDoc so I can show the backfire. Hope you don't mind being attacked by a stray, VampDoc.
-VD: *puzzled* What?-
The backfire for A Friend Indeed is that you get attacked by a dog, or a cat will hide from you. I think a dog attack would be more noticable.
-VD: *a little sarcastically* Lovely.-
Your character may get a free shot of vampblood for doing it. I reward my Simmies.
-VD: *grin* As long as I get something out of it.-
-VD2: Right.-
