Brayon Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Working on a submission for this. Thanks for hosting another challenge for us! 1
Timothy M. Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Can it be a separate story but with ties to other stories /series ? 1

Puppilull Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 I will try to realize an idea that popped in my head last night. Will be interesting to see if I can make it work... 2
northie Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Various formless ideas floating around. Hmm ... 1
Krista Posted January 21, 2018 Posted January 21, 2018 Hmm.. to write a Corey/Aidan slash from Dom's Desert Dropping story... if there are any rabid domaholics left, that could get me killed. ----- But seriously, sounds interesting. 1 1
Site Administrator Cia Posted January 21, 2018 Author Site Administrator Posted January 21, 2018 Sorry it took me so long to reply to all of these!

LOL! It just might. 2 1
Brayon Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Done, Moderated, Posted, and Link sent to Cia. Now waiting for publication with everyone else's. Now, I think I might do a Second Forbidden Love story.... this time, one that doesn't need GA approval. 4
Puppilull Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 @BHopper2 I got inspired and finished a first draft of my entry! Now - polishing! 2 1

northie Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 I'm working something up, but the next problem is going to be squeezing it into the word limit. If it doesn't work, I'll post it separately. 2 1
Drew Espinosa Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Hmm... it's been a while since I took up a challenge. Maybe I'll give this one a shot. 3 2
Timothy M. Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 Ha, I managed to stay within the limit: 1496 words. It's now being edited, so should be ready in time. I just need to come up with a story title, since Forbidden Love won't do, of course. I had it as a stop-gap working title, so I'm now trying to figure out what to call the story and the chapter. 3
Site Administrator Valkyrie Posted January 24, 2018 Site Administrator Posted January 24, 2018 I started mine today 2 1

northie Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 (edited) Giving up on mine. Not enough time, and insufficient inspiration to motivate me to find some more. And I'm getting behind on other things, Oh well, I'll just sit this one out. Edited January 26, 2018 by northie 4
Popular Post Defiance19 Posted January 28, 2018 Popular Post Posted January 28, 2018 So, I had an idea, and got it done. Two nods of approval and its edited. On 1/23/2018 at 5:13 PM, Timothy M. said: I managed to stay within the limit: 1496 words. Hehe. At 1499 I’m under too! Keeping to the word limit was the hardest part. Getting rid of 100+ words without sacrificing the content. It can be done. #learning 5 1
Popular Post Parker Owens Posted January 28, 2018 Popular Post Posted January 28, 2018 I fear I still need several things: an idea I actually like, time in which to write, and ruthless word-cutting power. I can still hope... 5 1

Dolores Esteban Posted February 4, 2018 Posted February 4, 2018 I've uploaded my story. I deleted 300 words 4
