Okay, so I've submitted, it's okay but I've just this minute had a much better idea... Wonder if I can write it in the remaining time and submit it!?!?
My feature has definitely taken a back seat this week!
I'm actually quite happy with it, had time to write a first version of the middle and then throw it away for being rubbish and come up with something much better - so hopefully people will enjoy it.
Whatever the reaction, it's been a really useful exercise in trying to write tension and suspense, so that's been worth it in itself (if it worked, good, if not, I can learn from it). Don't take these comps for granted, people, or indeed SS as a whole - this kind of feedback and ability to learn from others is invaluable!
Advance request: let's focus on story and characters, please, rather than tiny issues of format. I know they're the low-hanging fruit for any review, but also the easiest to fix and therefore in some ways the least useful. And rolled eyes in advance to anyone who's written a 'pisser' (or that's what it used to be called, anyway.)
I barely found a decent enough idea. Stumbled upon it Thursday night and cranked 90% of it out. Now I'm just finishing and tightening things up. This is the first time I've contributed to consecutive OWCs, if I recall correctly. I apologize for not reading and reviewing more scripts last time, I promise to do better for this challenge.

I'm in too, yay. Advance request: let's focus on story and characters, please, rather than tiny issues of format.

I agree. I'm going to stick to commenting on whether a story works for me. Btw, 'pisstake' is the correct term, i.e., 'taking the piss' (not to be confused with, taking the piss out of) - just ask Stevie but of course like a lot of things it morphed into straight micturition. Bet you're happy I commented on that.
I'd like to suggest also, if you 'can't get past the first line/page/paragraph - 'I'm out' that comment is so boring to read. Not commenting at all imh is the better option. It gets annoying and boring and is in no way constructive to the writer.
