I do not mean to dissipate the rather upbeat aura that this thread is emanating, but I do fear that I cannot participate in this event due to the fact that I cannot write in proper sentence structures, or even adhere to the proper standards of grammatical protocol for that matter!
However, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for any inconvenience this may bring you, suffice it to say that I am not as adept at expressing my thoughts and ideas in mere words as you had initially believed, for my command of the English language is rather intermediate.
A thousand apologizes, each more sincere than the last,

Sounds like if 'krissy' does this we're all doomed. :D That made for an... interesting read.

Me too. I can't risk of not getting my work published because I freely posted it online. I have a book I need to work on, but there's a lot of school work that needs to get done.Quote:

How are everyones stories coming along? I'm at over 2000 words. I couldnt think of an appropriate story till pretty much last night. So i really had to punch it up.
The next couple of nights i'll write extra to make up for the days i didnt write anything.
ET TU?
I’ll enter this, and then I’ll open MS Word. I’ll inflict a good amount of words onto that blank sheet before calling it a night. A few days later, I’ll open it again, and I might do some spell-checking and word-swapping and what-have-you... hell, I might even write a few more paragraphs before I close it. About 5 or 6 days after that, I will open it again, and stare at the document for roughly 15 minutes before getting the urge to play some Left 4 Dead (although promising myself that I will return to the document when I’ve finished—even though I don’t). From here on in I pretty much forget about it for the rest of the month.
By oh, say, June of next year, as I am rummaging through my documents and attempting to tidy it up, I will stumble upon a file with an inane title such as writing_project.docx (I don’t really adhere to any useful file naming protocol when it comes to personal use), and think “What is this?” and you know, open it up and have a read through. Perhaps I’ll even cringe in a few places where my writing is appalling, or the story itself is particularly awkward by futuristic standards.
Depending on my reception of the story, I may take a stab at extending on it for my own pleasures, or I’ll just delete it then and there. Either way, I’ll be far from creating a valid entry for this... competition, or whatever it is, by its deadline.
Quin woke up in the morning scratching his anus. He found a coin inside it and decided to use it to buy his breakfast.:monster2:
He went to the local Mcdonalds and demand a meal. With a coin in his hand and a rotten fish in another, he spit at the cashier and smack her with his fish.:ariel:
The cashier was mad and the fish was rotten. There were flies hovering the fish, as well as the cashier now. She took out her handphone and dialled for the cops.:kaofight:
This does not please Quin, nor his coin or his rotten fish. Quin opened up his mouth and cover the poor cashier with it. Within seconds, the cashier is gone into Quin's stomach. :quina:
Quin was full and he still have his coin and his rotten fish. It had been a satisfying morning, until he got run over by a monster truck. :sophia:
His coin and his fish were lying on the paddle of blood. The blood of Quin. :gruffi:
