I have a feeling Don winces when I post these. Especially now when he's busy with his "javascript" conversion.  

I'm really really busy, but every three months or so, I get a real urge to write an OWC short. I just LOVE them and I always have. What do you all think?

This might be jarring to some, at least those who know me. Can we have comedy, please?  

Word. Might give it an honest try this time around if the theme isn't lame. I did swear off of comedy though and haven't written a short in two years. Perhaps I can hit that sweet spot of shitty and unfunny. I would at least be doing well by the ABW (always be writing) mantra.

I'm not very funny unless I'm standing naked in front of the mirror.  I'll never get any better unless I try.  Or put some clothes on.  Sure, sounds fun.

Ha Pia... great April fool joke... see you can do funny

I'll play.

The only reason I write these days. I'll do my best to take part when it happens

But Reef, there's always the shopping lists, and the large note I sometimes have to leave in the kitchen that says 'No, I wasn't serious, I will be back in about twenty minutes as the dog will no doubt chew my foot off if I don't take him out now....

Personally, what? I mean I usually am writing something. Plodding away at it. Some of them get good, and some don't. These days I find coming up with an idea worth pursuing the hard part. I know, or at least am pretty sure, I can write a script. It's what I write about that's become the hard part.

Sometimes an OWC will appeal, if I can come up with a decent  idea in time. What I won't do now is submit one I think is erm, alright or not bad. It gotta be good. Very. I need a mug. I mean that mug. Not some sucker I can beat at pool.

Quoted from James McClung Perhaps I can hit that sweet spot of shitty and unfunny. I would at least be doing well by the ABW (always be writing) mantra.

I found that pretty funny. I'm serious.

I had a lot of fun with this in January, so I'd love to do it again in April! I'm just glad it's April and not May, because I am so busy in May. And comedy, yes please! But even if it isn't, I'll probably put something together. I'd probably write a terrible horror, but I'd try!

I still haven't finished the other OWC - I'm working on it though.

I do crave funny though! Comedy, yes. It's the hardest by the way.

God, I'm up to my eyeballs at the moment. Still checking in here every now and then though, and now I see this?

How could I not take part? It's my duty to let you guys tear into me

Comedy would be nice..

Oh, wait. Is it April fool joke? There's not going to be an OWC?

Comedy would be a nice change of pace -

Quoted from khamanna Oh, wait. Is it April fool joke? There's not going to be an OWC?

I seriously doubt it. That Durst AC/DC thing was vaguely amusing. To those who aren't big fans it was plausible, at least at first glance.

I think joking about starting an OWC soon as a prank would go down as well as Led Zeppelin. Erm, I mean balloon, a lead balloon. I was in no way implying members (oh dear), of previously mentioned rock band were really good at errm, oh no.

My delete key is broken and the arrows have stopped working. I can only keep typing or stop. Hmm, I think I'll leave it there. Probably best for everyone. I think I'd better ring a erm.

I've said too much already.

Had an idea for a future 6 week challenge: we pick a Hollywood movie that was spoilt by a shit script and rewrite it properly
