IS THERE ENOUGH SUPPORT FOR ANOTHER ANTHOLOGY?
well then i'd LIKE to submit but i don't have anything to submit.
i'd venture to guess that maybe drew would like to submit too.
altho he hasn't been around much lately i had a pm from him a couple
of weeks ago that he's working on some new stuff.
i'll send him a pm and holler at him to chk out this thread.

you're more advanced than a cockroach,
have you ever tried explaining yourself
to one of them?

i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

Clearly, luci, he says that to *all* the girls....dANdeLION wrote:[My obvious opinion has always been that you're a very talented writer, seriously, you're the best one on the watch, IMO, though Aliantha's great too.
And yes, dammit, luci, plan to submit something! Drew too! Sheesh, with the amount of writing talent we have around here, I can't believe I have to go through this....

I've decided to submit something that might not put dAN into toxic shock syndrome--Coronation Day, a lovely little post-nuclear-impact thriller where two lonely men and a military assault-shotgun attempt to leave a leveled city full of 100,000 starving survivors.
Once this project is ready for submissions, I'll send along the pretty much final, ultra-polished-so-slick-you'll-drop-it copy. I'm also working on Red, another juicy action piece with large but-not-quite giant robots (seeing as I covered the giant robot genre in my previous book).

Pff. If one book (and a novella) and a few short stories and volumes of poetry is prolific. I'd say its Brahmsian at best, and my quality is more like Wendy's than McDonalds.

Having blown the dust off my most complete fragment of a story, I'm more than a little dismayed by the fact that about 33% of it is off-topic footnotes.
Not that that should come as any great surprise to anyone.

I'd definitely submit, though I have to warn you it would probably be poetry...and it tends to be...dense? My lit and writing prof's loved it, most people just say "Huh?" [with occaisional "I fucking hate poetry" thrown in].
I love my short stories when I'm writing them...a week later they just seem stupid, but I might try one.
I need a definite deadline, though...or I'll definitely be dead before I write a line.

the hyperbole is a beauty...for we are then allowed to say a little more than the truth...and language is more efficient when it goes beyond reality than when it stops short of it.

Uh...I wouldn't wait for a poetry volume, Sarge. I think we have a better chance of Anthology IV happening than KeWaPoMo....

Well, the great news - for me - is that I finally have an idea I can work with. It came to me the night after the nice comments earlier. So, count me in for an entry.

You're a great writer, LM, and writers can go months or years without writing and still not lose the essential touch. I don't think you'll have any problems. Just enjoy yourself!Loremaster wrote:Well, the great news - for me - is that I finally have an idea I can work with. It came to me the night after the nice comments earlier.

You only need one idea at a time. Look at SRD.
