Alright gang, I've got a new story thread up. Decided NO TOPIC to constrain you. Whatever subject moves you is fair game! (subject, pun intended, to other site standards and conventions, of course)

Apologies for the late start. I'm recovering from some sort of plague, but I think I'm gonna make it! Who's got a story for us?!?

Just a note, if you'd like your short story to appear in the next issue of Explosive Runes, please PM me, ASAP.

We are putting the next issue together, and still have room to feature some writers. But I need your PM by the end of this week (June 8).

Thanks!

Thanks for the prompt, dirkoth! Guys--just drop dirk a note if you want that story in the next issue of Explosive Runes!

We have a competition, albeit a small one--only two stories, but that will just make it easier to participate in the voting for May! Have a read, please, and vote for your favorite story for May. I predict you will like these!

Also--the competition story thread for June is up, so get those creative juices flowing, convince yourself you do have the time, get writing, and join the fun!

Yup, still time.

And hey, Itsa... if you want to zip me a paragraph or ten, about the library, the competitions, and the fun you have here, I'll feature it in the upcoming issue!

12 days left in the month, and *somebody* (thank you samibb8!!) will be unopposed unless someone else gets in there with some story action! Who's it gonna be?!? Hmm??? Don't be shy!

Weeeell, seeing as I'm not currently facilitating the competition, maybe it's time to throw something up there?

Ahhhh. It is Aethera. It definitely is.

Guess I need to settle in and try and craft something.

@Aethera--that would be super-cool! I absolutely endorse this idea!

@GeneT--Your stories are always a joy to read, I'm anxious to see what you come up with!

Athera has posted. I must have missed it.

Darn. Need to get working on writing my story so I can read hers and Sami's. I never read before writing. For some reason, I think it affects my thinking and word finding.
