Weekly Wrap Up (May 12 - May 18)


I can't decide where to start tonight :) I had an idea, an overused idea, then when thinking of that idea, I had another idea. So I have 1 new and 1 old idea. Do you have any idea how happy I am :gikkle: 

So new idea, I know a lot of stories get written here and a lot are incomplete and a lot more are complete. So here is my question, I will limit it to 3 stories. What stories would you call out to have a sequel or to continue on, ending from the final chapter? Let us know the Author, the story and throw in a link if you want. If you are not sure, it is just as easy as going to the story you like, copying the URL and then pasting it in a new post :) 

Now for the old, the weather :gikkle:. I'm sure many of the Commonwealth countries are having a long weekend to celebrate Victoria Day. Always a week before the US Memorial Day holiday. So this weekend in my parts, well Canada actually, is the kick off to the summer season. When you live up against the eastern slopes of the Rockies like me we have only really been in spring for a few weeks now. So it is a 50/50 chance on the weather being good, or it is sucking. Well this weekend we will have showers, thunder showers, have had tornado watches to the east and snow to the west. Oh my :P So I officially declare Calgary's May long weekend as sucking :yes: So if you have a long weekend or not, let me know how yours's is going? Suck, good, in the middle, bad and is that normal or not? And @Mark Arbour, don't remove the comma between suck and good 😠, I'm onto you :gikkle: We run a family blog around here 0:) 

 Now onto what we are here for, to wrap things up.

Monday, we had a special Review done for Comicality done by @spike382:

Tuesday, @Myr was off diving again this week. This time he looked at General Fiction:

 

With the upcoming Prompt Anthology, @astone2292 shared some great tips on how to write a short. Check it out, I really enjoyed it!

Finally on Friday, we had @Cole Matthews jump into the Prompt seat and propose an interesting take on writing a prompt :unsure::

 

Although we had a lighter week as far as blogs went, we still got in our 7 Words of the Day:

habit, eager, teasel, tetanus, razzle-dazzle, windlass, zilch

I thought your wet weather was helping with the wildfires and you are complaining?

They are :) Just because the weather sucks, it isn't necessarily a bad thing :)

I have always hated that this story was not completed before his passing.  

 

Same with this one, was so enjoying the story prior to the authors passing.

 

This was a short story that I always thought should have been expanded.  Always wanted to know what happened to Marks and how this was went.

 

I could list about a dozen others that I would like sequels to so smart to limit to three.
