I know, I know - it hasn't been that long since soma hosted an AWFFC, but I wanted to begin hyping this now because I want to have beaucoups participants. There are so many excellent writers around AW that need showcasing and this is a great way to do it.
Now you US Americans (heh) don't be hollering at me about the dates. I know darned well it's Thanksgiving week and the beginning of the holiday season. That is what makes it ideal timing. Many people have at least two days off and that should give folks time to at least get some ideas formulated and some notes made.
The theme is any variation on: TRANSFORM
The guidelines are:
Oh yes, I nearly forgot -- I need to receive your entry information by midnight on December 4th.
Thanks to bsolah for getting the FFCs going and to soma for hosting #2. Let's make #3 HUGE!
Now then, everybody dance! ! !

The theme is any variation on: TRANSFORM
The guidelines are:
- Participating writers can be from anywhere, not just members of AW, so if you have a writer friend who doesn't play here, you may invite them to join us. If your friend does not have a blog, perhaps you can host them or if needed, I will host their story quite happily. If YOU don't have a blog but wish to be hosted, just holler. I'll host you too.
- Stories must relate somehow to the theme. This can be a very broad interpretation or specific. You're the writer, so you do what works for you.
- You will have 14 days to write. I may choose to extend that by a couple of days if I'm begged/bribed/wheedled very nicely.
- Stories can range in length from 500 words to 1200 words, give or take no more than 100 either way, please.
- I will be posting the participants' list in my blog no later than December 8th.
- If you participate, you need to comment on the contributions of your fellow writers. Feedback is essential so please make sure you comment. Also, encourage all your friends and family to read and comment as well.
- When you are done with your story, post it in your blog and send me the permalink, the name under which you wish to be identified, and the story title. You may send it to me, removing the spaces and changing the at to @ of course, at: virginia lee writes AT yahoo.com.
Oh yes, I nearly forgot -- I need to receive your entry information by midnight on December 4th.
