As a note just because I imposed that flash rule on magnificent7, the rest of you may still use a judge's previous TD entry for your rewriting piece. Go nuts.

In with JonasSalk's The End. 9 You have to keep moving one way or another, and the glint has given you a goal. You shuffle toward it, following the rim of the bowl as best you can. Your snow gear can't keep the frigid air from reaching you entirely, and by the time you're where you thought you saw the light, ice crystals have formed on your lashes. Every breath hurts. You're exhausted. It makes you an easy target. The first blow to your head comes from behind. You collapse into the snow. A heavy boot slams into your ribs, or tries: your padded anorak protects you somewhat, just as your hood kept that first strike from knocking you senseless. Your assailant knows what he's doing, however. He kicks the side of your head; your sight blacks out. You're stunned and dazed, not fully unconscious, so you feel it as he takes everything from your pockets--and your flashlight. You roll on your side as he finally moves away. A mistake. You go blind again from vertigo, but not before you see his tall, heavy frame and the shovel he carries: he must be another treasure hunter, but that won't help you identify him for the police. After you manage to get up--after you make it back to where the car was, only to find he's stolen that, too--you realize that won't be a concern. Your frozen corpse isn't found until June.

Kaishai posted:In with JonasSalk's The End. I was going to choose this story because it has very symbolic meaning to me. It was the loser of the week I was In but didn't submit a piece and was branded with the Thunderdome Badge of Shame/Advertising. So if the gods speak our favor I'd challenge you to a  Revision Duel, the greatest contest known to English Majors. Normal prize for the winner, but if I lose then I submit myself to further shaming and humiliation. It is the only way.

It was the loser of the week I was In but didn't submit a piece and was branded with the Thunderdome Badge of Shame/Advertising. Interesting. Since I've already said to myself, "What's the biggest challenge I could tackle? What is outside of my wheelhouse, possibly beyond the ability of God or man to redeem, and too short for its plot? I know! 'Rural Rent--goddammit, Nubile Hillock!" and then gone for something at least equally foreign to my experience because I like pain apparently, I don't see why I shouldn't take up another gauntlet. Challenge accepted, if the judges permit.

The Drone of the Tower by Wrageowrapper no word count i had to manually count each word. Having done so twice i think the number of words is 830. But if i post more than 1000 words it`ll be because i miscounted. quote:Baz gulped. It was about all he could do.

Sitting Here posted:Also since I'm feeling capricious, from right now until whenever I get bored I will assign a story to anyone who asks. This may work out well for you, it may not. I guess I'd like to be assigned one. Make it a pretty bad one, too, I want to see how good I am at polishing literary turds. Edit: Oh, also, thanks for all the crits from last week, judges! Totally forgot to say anything. Yeah, I can see how going from a creepy horror story to basically the farce of a character that was Dr. Campbell would be tonally weird. Not sure when I'll get to it, but I might do a rewrite that goes in a more supernatural direction- more of a steady descent into madness that's ambiguous about whether or not the lumps are real. Also the book prompt was not in my original plan, so screw yoooouuuuu  (Actually it was a really neat idea, systran, but it just inconvenienced me) Nikaer Drekin fucked around with this message at 16:00 on Apr 9, 2013 |

I'm scrambling trying to find a link to it before you people rip me a third rear end in a top hat. Gyat dammit. I know I found it, I've got it copied, I've read it.
