Cranky,I'm finally done being sick, so I think I can safely post some goals for this week.
1000 words. Two blog posts of 350 words each.
That should do it, methinks.
Good job on the output but we must have goals.
20 roundhouses for Cranky
Yow, y'all are busy! I'll have to read that raunchy piece--once i'm *not* on the school computer.
Met my goal of one scene--1735 wds (with the beginning of another scene tagged on)
and topped it with outlines of the first 2 scenes in the story (first time i've written a story out of sequence) --430 wds
My new goal--finish that short story's last scene, and write the story's *first* scene--so 1 and 1/2 scenes.

Pfft. Overachiever.
So where are the stories your kids wrote? From what I understand, Boston can't wait to get into 'em and rip 'em up.
That is, after he kicks the Chihuahua.

I'm sorry, DL. I wasn't being clear there. No output. Those were my goals.

Hugs and pushups,

Cranky abuse is not exceptable--unless I do it or RT

Cranky,
Sorry about that, I miss read your post--to make it up to you--you can kick any horror hound you like.
*gestures to haggis*
Hugs and pushups,

me, overachiever.
My kiddos are just *beginning* their first scenes, so no stories, yet. If you wanna check out the place they're putting their stories in, it's on wofford universities' TWiki site:
http://www.woffordsharedworlds.com/2008worlds/bin/view/World1/WebHome
They'll be posting their short stories under my link, here:
http://www.woffordsharedworlds.com/2008worlds/bin/view/Main/CathyFreeze
(Prolly not until next week. They turn in their first scenes to me on Friday--but they're writing them longhand, at first. After they all have their permission slips in to me, i'll let 'em write straight to the TWiki, if they like. )
Thanks for the interest! They're turning in their permission slips (and taking this exercise more seriously) since i told 'em you all may peek in.

Kewl.
Be sure to warn them about Boston. And DL too.

**eyes the little doggie** warning them about Boston--I get--but me?!I am sweet and nice
that is awesome
**eyes the little doggie** warning them about Boston--I get--but me?!I am sweet and nice
I have no doubt.
Do all remember--I got permission to post to the Uni site, but these are high school students, *not* university freshmen. They'll be rough, some of these stories. But they're doing their best. (Just get ready for some reading pain.)
I have no doubt.
(Just get ready for some reading pain.)
we love fresh
Seriously, it has been a while--since I've had the chance to read what young people write--should be fun
Me?? What did I *ever* do to you?
.... I mean, sure, there was that whole incident with the green dye.... and then the electric shaver fiasco...
And you're not still holding a grudge over that time we took you trolling for gators* are you?
* as the bait

It's not so much the trolling that bothered me. It's where you stuck me with the hook.
.... It healed.
.... Eventually.
Ok, so you walked really funny for a few months and it cut into your social life, but really, small price to pay for some new alligator skin boots, I think.

That's not all it cut into. And I'm not even Jewish.
You know you're twice as frightening when you do that, DL
I really wish I could tell not to be--but you know me too well
i got 1026 wds, this week, but on bits of three different scenes (principally the beginning and end of that verdammt story-that-will-never-be-finished.)
But really, didn't finish either scene, so ug.
Goals for next week--to finish one of those scenes.

Got through a POD book I promised to review--short review, only 326 words. But they were HARD words to write--does that make each one count twice?
Dunno about goals. I thinl DL's going to be using me as a practice dummy this week.
