Quoted from Dreamscale Horror, porn, anything at least R rated with a multi million dollar budget.

Yeah, that's about right - Mick Taylor leaves a message in a bottle by the side of the highway and an unsuspecting blonde buxom and beautiful (must have alliteration) tourist picks it up, and voilà - Wolf Creek 3 in 10 pages or less.

Quoted from LC Perhaps genre?

How about a date? I'm going on vacation next week. Writing a short would be perfect then. I seem to never be able to work on features on vacations. Not sure why, but a short...  

Excellent. This should motivate me to write more than three letters at a time.

Thanks for hosting, Don! When can we expect an announcement?

Quoted from Grandma Bear How about a date?

OK, Pia.  I'll take you on a date.  Where should we meet?  

I'm guessing it's all men cast OWC. No it's all blonde men cast OWC!
Am I right or am I right?

Quoted from khamanna I'm guessing it's all men cast OWC. No it's all blonde men cast OWC! Am I right or am I right?

Khamanna, you always come up with a unique interpretation.   So, now you've got me on a tangent...

Perhaps blonde men in bottles - ah-ha, bottle-blondes.
Anyway, that's all moot to me, personally I prefer dark-haired men.  

How 'bout a small handful of sailors with one wrench and as she walks de plank thety all discover a horrible truth: their ship is in a bottle of Bacardi And the "sea" is a fifth of rum! And the bottle is in the middle of a desert oasis!



I call my short--- The Predicament.
subtitled Ho Ho Hum and a bottle o rum

Quoted from Dreamscale OK, Pia.  I'll take you on a date.  Where should we meet?

St. Maarten would work.

Seriously though, any hint on when this might happen? We're already halfway into May.

St. Maarten/Saint Martin - my favorite island!!  Really?  That's where you're going?  Damn you, Pia.  I'm so jealous.

If you've never been, I can tell you some places you MUST go.

Orient Beach?

I'm not going there until New Years. I'm going to the NC mountains next week.

Close to Orient Beach, but so much better.  Pinel Island....best snorkeling in the area and ike no one there.  AWESOME!!!

I'm confused.
   I've never entered one of these, didn't even know this existed until Libby and Jeff told me about it.  How does this work?  I have to write a short about a message in a bottle or about the band?

Don is being cryptic. For some reason, he's not even telling us when this is to start, but I'm sure he will soon. The OWC is short for One Week Challenge. On a date, yet unknown, Don will tell us the OWC assignment. He will give us a genre and theme and such and then we have one week to write a short that fits that criteria.

Don't start writing anything yet...  

Damn, I may miss this one' Leaving for Hawaii at the end of May to visit grandsons.  There will be very little quiet time.

Oh c'mon, Dave. You know you'll be writing it in your sleep anyway.

Mind you, you can rest on your laurels too - aren't you a 'Crappy Mug' recipient from your very first OWC? Showoff.
