@perfectfifths I have nothing to add to anything that has just been said, other than keep it simple and sweet, but I hope you win!

@PerfectFifths Looks like you’re in good hands. 😀
To your last question though—that sounds like it’d work, as long as you don’t make it too long to begin with and then don’t want to cut so much.

I hope you win. 🙂

@GabrielleMassman I haven’t read that. *despairing expression* So many good books to read and not enough time! But I’ll remember it. 🙂

I haven’t seen the musical, or any of the movies (yet, at least). But I’ll take your word for it. 😉
And I love that moment too. Combeferre is so sweet, and that was so sad.

@Overcomer @ClaireC I’ll sure be praying for both of you. I know how hard it is to play an instrument in front of lots of people.

Um…Well, I can honestly say that I don’t know too much about writing short stories, especially not 1,500 word short ones. Yeah, that definitely is crazy. Probably why there is a reward in the first place. 😛 I had to write a short story once that was only 1000 words, and I managed to keep it down to 900. I really just wrote down whatever came…[Read more]

@northerner @ethryndal I think I’m going to be done now. I wrote 167 words. /Not the best, but better than nothing, I suppose. Thanks!

@northerner Ah, I suspected that was your reason. Ok, well first, I don’t think your genre will change a whole lot. I’m suspect you’re right that there are fewer e-readers there, but there’s still a significant amount. However, that doesn’t affect the issue of hypocrisy much. Well, here’s the question. Why are you against e-readers? If it’s a…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper @Northerner It’s a threesome now.

@northerner Great!
