- Don

Perfect reading on vacation!  

Sweet.

No foreplay, straight to business! Can’t wait

Quoted from khamanna No foreplay, straight to business!

Don knows what we like.  

13 hours later and only 4 comments!? Where the hell is everyone?

Yeah, seriously, it's the December One Week Challenge. Last chance for this year. Get hyped. =)

Maybe they are working on their blogs or something

Quoted from khamanna Maybe they are working on their blogs or something

There is NO excuse!  

Oh, I'm in. I already have a story if the parameters don't blow it out of the water. Fingers crossed.

Quoted from JEStaats Oh, I'm in. I already have a story if the parameters don't blow it out of the water. Fingers crossed.

Not giving anything away, but it's something we've never done before...  

Quoted from Zack There is NO excuse!

Absolutely agree!
All you lurkers out there & Newbs and SS alumni, need to prove you've still got it.  

And what Pia said...  

Quoted from Grandma Bear Not giving anything away, but it's something we've never done before...

Fingers crossed for an Erotic theme!!!  

Quoted from Zack Fingers crossed for an Erotic theme!!!

My idea might just hold up!

Quoted from JEStaats My idea might just hold up!

Got an erotic western planned for us?  

Quoted from Zack Got an erotic western planned for us?

With a Christmas/Holiday setting.
Now that'd be something.  

Quoted from LC With a Christmas/Holiday setting. Now that'd be something.

Sounds like the perfect opportunity to write a follow up to Santa's Coming.

Quoted from Zack Sounds like the perfect opportunity to write a follow up to Santa's Coming.

Yes, but as Pia implied: In a unique way.
Insert evil laugh.  

Quoted from LC With a Christmas/Holiday setting. Now that'd be something.

That brings memories of Sean’s challenge (or should I say glooming), me suddenly writing a western and using a British lingo of 1800’s
And then ppl reading it…

Quoted from Grandma Bear Not giving anything away, but it's something we've never done before...

We’ve never done backwards here!

Quoted from Zack Fingers crossed for an Erotic theme!!!

I've got $20 down on the "Boner Throne OWC"...

Quoted from Grandma Bear Not giving anything away, but it's something we've never done before...

Somehow Don is going to clear up my work schedule so I can get something in?

I am hoping to be able to participate this time if the constraints don’t break my brain.

Ooh, Santa horror comedies please! Ho-ho-horror!

Quoted from MarkRenshaw Ooh, Santa horror comedies please! Ho-ho-horror!

I have a feature in this genre.

May I adopt my own feature into a short for an OWC by the way?

Quoted from khamanna I have a feature in this genre. May I adopt my own feature into a short for an OWC by the way?

Probably not... But I'd be very interested in reading your feature! Is it here on SS?

Quoted from Zack Probably not... But I'd be very interested in reading your feature! Is it here on SS?

It’s not your type of horrific lol. And thdd we horror part is not really a horror and just in one part. It’s more of a comedy adventure. Santa’s workers (in my story it’s ppl working at a factory) are trying to kill the main character the whole movie tho.

But I never finished it and have to rewrite.

Sounds fun to me!

C'mon, people! Only a little under 49 hours left before the announcement! Where's the hype?

I hope this challenge doesn't hurt my brain like the last couple have.

Quoted from mmmarnie I hope this challenge doesn't hurt my brain like the last couple have.

I have a feeling you, and most everybody will love this challenge, especially when you see the inspiration it came from.

Quoted from LC I have a feeling you, and most everybody will love this challenge, especially when you see the inspiration it came from.

Ooooh, maybe a Christmas Carol. You runnin' the show, Gurl?

Quoted from ghost and_ghostie gal Ooooh, maybe a Christmas Carol. You runnin' the show, Gurl?

Nope, not me. I just got to say: That's a great idea!  

I hope you two will be contenders.

Quoted from LC Nope, not me. I just got to say: That's a great idea!   I hope you two will be contenders.

Aww, Bummer!

Anyhoo, we shall see. if someone...cough cough...can keep me sober.

Quoted from ghost and_ghostie gal ... Anyhoo, we shall see. if someone...cough cough...can keep me sober.

Some people get their best work done that way.

Not that I'm endorsing that method.

Haha! true that.

“Sometimes I write drunk and revise sober, and sometimes I write sober and revise drunk. But you have to have both elements in creation — the Apollonian and the Dionysian, or spontaneity and restraint, emotion and discipline.” - Peter De Vries.

I'm sure I'll be kept in check cos vomit is hard to clean from keyboards/paper.

So you know what the challenge is about?

Nice quote!

As for the other - brings new meaning to the words: vomit draft.  

Quoted from khamanna So you know what the challenge is about?

If I told you what I know, Kham, I'd have to kill you.
And I'm rather fond of you, so... I know nothing.  

Quoted from LC If I told you what I know, Kham, I'd have to kill you. And I'm rather fond of you, so... I know nothing.

I didn’t ask what you know. I actually find this question nosy and sort of too forward.
The question was if you know. Im withdrawing it also since I don’t gain anything from knowing if you know.

And I sort of know that you know)

1 day left!

I thought iso yesterday, but today it’s showing 1 day again. Maybe I should be happy it didn’t go up to 2…

Quoted from LC I have a feeling you, and most everybody will love this challenge, especially when you see the inspiration it came from.

Yay! Now I'm excited!!

Haha! So true, you didn't ask what.  

Pia's clip exactly. Love it.  

I really need to throw my hat in for this but I've just finished two weeks of research for a new feature and feel like I've built some momentum that I don't want to break.

If an idea really takes hold I'll try get something in

Not much longer!

Quoted from Zack Not much longer!

One hour to go!

Quoted from FrankM One hour to go!

No, it’s 50 minutes!

Quoted from khamanna No, it’s 50 minutes!

NOOO!!! It's only 25 minutes...  

Quoted from Zack NOOO!!! It's only 25 minutes...

It's only 7 minutes until the timer reaches 0 :00:00:00 .... but still another 52 minutes until something is announced

I can't take it anymore! My nipples... They scream with anticipation!!!

Only negative sixty-five minutes to go!

I’ll be online

Quoted from Zack I can't take it anymore! My nipples... They scream with anticipation!!!

I think I hear them now.

Quoted from Zack I can't take it anymore! My nipples... They scream with anticipation!!!

I was surprised at how girly that scream was.

Quoted from mmmarnie I was surprised at how girly that scream was.

Usually something happens when the timer gets to zero.

Did someone forget to press the button?

I feel like Wile E. Coyote is about to show up.

Maybe someone m’s nipples can scream the theme out of something

Quoted from Zack I can't take it anymore! My nipples... They scream with anticipation!!!

Just unplug those alligator clasps!!!  

Quoted from khamanna Maybe someone m’s nipples can scream the theme out of something

Oh wait. Is it not Zacks challenge?

Maybe the theme is silence and we need to write a script about invisible things that are late.

Tres avant-garde.

Well there went that idea.

Quoted from Nomad Maybe the theme is silence and we need to write a script about invisible things that are late. Tres avant-garde.

I tried that, but it didn't go over well.  But that does give me an idea for a future OWC...
