Email List and Submission Dates

[Ben Moore]

Could I submit a chapter this coming Monday?

[Silk she/her]

Absolutely!

 

ALSO GUESS WHAT YOU GUYS I HAVE A MASTER'S DEGREE NOW

 

...

 

*ahem*
 

Um, sorry about that. I just defended my thesis yesterday and I am still maybe a little bit wired. Carry on.

ALSO GUESS WHAT YOU GUYS I HAVE A MASTER'S DEGREE NOW

 

Woohoo! Doesn't that feel just great I recently passed my exam as a certified software developer

 

So. Anyway. Even if I have been shamefully absent from this list... I have something in the works I'd love some feedback on.

Can I submit this comming Monday?

[Silk she/her]

It DOES feel pretty great. Congrats to you as well!

 

And yes, you're welcome to submit on Monday. That's you and Ben so far.

[Mandamon he/him]

Congrats Silk!  So that means we're going to be seeing lots of submissions from you now, right?

[Silk she/her]

Mandamon: I hope so! Although I have to actually do some writing first.

 

And thanks!

Hear, Hear! (on both counts)

[Silk she/her]

Haha, thanks CJ.

 

I guess I'll just dust off this ole superhero novel then...

[TracerTK]

Congrats Silk, I can only imagine how much work went into that.

 

Are there any spots left for Monday the 9th? I would like to submit a highly revised version of chapter 1.

[Silk she/her]

Thanks, TK! It was a long haul, but I'm actually fairly happy with the thesis now that it's written, so I must have done SOMETHING right.

 

You're down for Monday 9th (is it going to be September 9th already?) You're the first, in fact.

[Guru Coyote he/him]

I'd like to post a story on Sept 9th too, which is related to the last one.

[Silk she/her]

Go ahead.

[jParker]

I don't know if this is technically allowed, but I've got a screenplay for a short film that I'm writing for a director friend. Is it okay if I submit that on Monday?

[Silk she/her]

We've had people submit screenplays before, actually. Go right ahead.

[Robinski he/him]

I guess I'll just dust off this ole superhero novel then...

 

Well done! Let's be having that novel now, no excuses!!

[Silk she/her]

Jeez. You people are slave drivers!

[cjhuitt he/him]

Jeez. You people are slave drivers!

 

Are you regretting getting your internet connection back yet?

[Silk she/her]

NEVER!

Well, maybe a little.

[Robinski he/him]

Come on, let's be honest, internet must be close to being classed as one of the elements by now, Earth, Water, Air, Fire, Internet surely, and not necessarily in that order...

[Silk she/her]

Hah. The Internet as the fifth humour?

 

...Does that mean that the people who do the "social media detox" thing are basically engaging in bloodletting?

[Robinski he/him]

...yes, perhaps instead it's a kind of inverse purgatory...

[Mandamon he/him]

Anyone else here doing the Dark Crystal contest?  I'm finishing up a submission and was thinking about posting here in a week or two.

[Robinski he/him]

The Dark Crystal Author Quest by Penguin / Henson? Not my scene, but good luck!

[Silk she/her]

Mandamon: I hadn't heard of it! I'll have to check it out.

 

Anyone interested in submitting tomorrow? I don't think we've had anyone ask for this week yet.

[Mandamon he/him]

I got excited this weekend and finished the first draft.  If I can get an edit done tomorrow, I'd like to submit the Dark Crystal story for critique tomorrow night.
