In between NaNo and life, I'm probably not in for this month, Fox. (Although I said that last month, too, I suppose...)

I think it would be best to wait until December cause I have too much going on to enter. It's a really hectic time of year for a lot of people.

I would say wait. It is NaNo and A Drop of Romeo's Star Crossed is until December 15 (which is what I've been focusing on).

Alright since there was no contest last month, I'm checking again for this month. If I have a at least three people willing, then there will be a December Contest. For prompt ideas, suggest them in the Writing Prompts thread. I'll give people till this Friday to make the decision. Say so in this thread. :)

I'm with crywolf, if I knew what the prompt was, I'd decide.

Maybe you could post the prompt on Friday, and if three or people say they'll do it, you can start it on Sunday?

I am the same.

But December is a busy month for me.

Oh, what the heck. I'm in.

I'm in. Hit us with your best shot, Fox!

I'm willing to give it a shot if I like the prompt.

I agree with SuitedManatee. Finals are soon, along with the due date of a HUGE English project (*growls*), so I won't force myself to do this month's contest because I'll also be gone on the 20th and won't have internet access for a while.

I'm in :D

As long as its due after the thirteenth, but before Christmas then I'll probably do it. Hopefully....

Awwww yeah... keep them coming people! I hope to see more entries before the deadline cause I've already read the ones that are posted!

Dee-lish! Any more coming?

I wanted to write one, but I got sidetracked with another contest.

12/18/2013 #200
FyloeFox

Last day to get them in, guys. If you are entering make sure to get the entries to me by the end of tonight.

12/18/2013 #201
TanteLiz

C'mon, Alyson, you've got eight hours until it's midnight Pacific Time - you can still do it!

12/18/2013 #202
JustJazzyD

I wanted to write one too but this last week before Christmas holiday has been super hectic. If I had 3 more days I could probably do it. A mid week due date is rough on me this time of year. Anyhow I've read all except the last entry. Very original with different things I like in each story. I'll review this weekend when the voting thread goes up. Good luck everyone!

I was in the middle of writing it, but I couldn't affort another all-nighter as I have an important class today. So can I post the story and don't count as an entry? I liked the concept I came up with and I really want to finish it.// Also I still have to read the entries, but I'll do it soon. I'm sure they're amazing. Good luck everyone!

@TantelLiz, eight hours is pretty short. I blame SKoW, lol.

12/19/2013 #205
SuitedManatee

And I blame college, funerals and a complete inability to remember any fairy tales from my childhood.

12/19/2013 #206

That too. :)

Tough voting, this month. Wow.

I'm pretty happy with everything I've read. You guys have me shaking in my boots. The competition is so fun!!!! I only wish more people had entered *cough Alyson, JazzyD, crywolf, Manatee cough* cause I know the authors who participate on the forum write really well, and this is where I come first to read stuff. If I run out of other people's entries to read, then I'll trawl through people's favourites or the just in section. But the entries for the Labyrinth contest are generally pretty high caliber so I start here first.
