Quoted from AlsoBen
I've already submitted mine. It's not great.


Then why submit it, Ben? You've a whole week to tinker with it, work the story, fix it up. Just seems to me you're jumping the gun a little.

I was thinking I can re-submit if I decide to rewrite before the week is up.

But I generally need longer than a week to stew on something enough. I'm relatively happy w/ it anyway.

I love the theme, and saw a couple of tales I like.
There, I said it therefore I jinxed it.

Good luck to all!

Got a big clean-up job this weekend after the hurricane, two short films to make sure they get finished with editing, two feature re-writes and two features to read....but hell, I'm a sucker for the October, especially, OWC. If I write something, it will probably be like I did things in the old days, written on Friday night.

Good theme, but like the Urban Legend one...really, REALLY hard to come up with something new.

One thing I've learnt though is that one of the my favourite horror stories, The Man Who Drew Cats by Michael Marshall Smith, which won the British Fantasy Award...was just a rip off of the Boy who Drew Cats...an old Japanese fairy tale.

A lot of the takes I think would require more that ten pages.
There was one that I did recall from my youth because the story was siple enough, and I got the feeling that that story will be chosen by many.

I'll give it a go as well as another tale, decide which one I like better and submit the better of the two.

Great challenge.

How or why anyone would be done and submitted already is pure stupidity.

I will check out the list of ideas and start thinking.

I will be in!!!
