The November Flash Fiction Contest

Ok, three takers, plus me (supreme dictator of this project) - that makes four - which means a majority! :D

Here's the plan so far:
1) list all the past winners by year
2) contact all the winners via PM to get their buy in
3) figure out all the rest

I'll keep you all posted via my blog on this forum? (I'll have to go start one.)

I LOVE projects like this. :) :)

i´m in!!!!!!!!

but what are your intentions.??? to publish ALL the stories or just the winners of each month?
 
hi everyone!!!

Here is my entry for this month so eloquently called "Hunger and thirst".

http://www.sffworld.com/community/story/3998p0.html

I must, for some reason I can't explain, write a disclaimer:

My story came out somewhat darker and more explicit than originally intended. I can't say why it came out that way or even why I myself think of it that way. So you are warned. This is definitely not PG-13.
 
Yikes SF! :eek:

I'm still working on mine...but it's dark too. I wonder if October's theme is spilling over to this month...
 
Arg, I have some ideas in my head, but I can't start them until I finish a chapter of my book. The problem is it's the last chapter so it's pretty difficult! I hope I can make it! Arg arg! Wish me luck :)

You can do it, Scorpion! Rooting for you! :D

go for it.... we WILL be waiting for your entry.... you can do it.....

anyway, you can always go back to your book later.... to enter here you only have 8 days left..... :cool:

unless of course you want to start writing for someone else :rolleyes:
 
I came up with the plot for my story, but the thing is, I have two versions. A sci-fi version and a fantasy one. I can't decide on which one to use.
 
That's what I was about to say - post them both. We can give you a thumbs up/thumbs down on 'em if you want. :)
 
While I thank you both for the offer, I don't think that'd be fair to everyone else.

Any way to combine them and strap a laser on a catapult? Or maybe a horse with warp speed?

Really? I do it...darn. Should I write yet another entry? I've already written four for this month...I asked someone on this forum to help me pick out which one to focus on... :(

Well, here's my story: Verity

Keep in mind I will most likely keep tweaking it until the 19th. Now...back to researching how to start my own publishing company! :D

Alright I'm back. A brief respite from the job, familial obligations, sickness, and the worst case of writer's block I've ever experienced. At least it'll stop me pulling this entry before the deadline. It's taken me four hours to get this far.

Outpost Twelve.

Now someone tell me what's been going on and who's fault it all was.

Huzzah, great to have you back - I always enjoy reading your entries (Tristis was also mysteriously absent last month, which was dissapointing).

To catch you up:
DailyRich finally got the win we all knew was coming, there's an epic ketchup thread, and tmso went nutty and is thinking of publishing us schlubs.

(Tmso can give you greater details on the anthology project... which your winning entries would be a big part of... check out her blog)
