Quoted from mmmarnie Hope you're in this, LC. My daughter is better. Still has some lingering symptoms like exhaustion and muted sense of taste and smell. So.....I'm in quarantine right now, actually. UGH. LOL. Getting tested tomorrow. 2 people I work with have it so they shut us down for a while. I worked closely with both these people on Sunday...so we'll see.

Glad your daughter is better. She might try b12, water and Vitamin D and well caffeine could help give her some energy but it can dehydrate. The nose thing is probably because the nasal passages are inflamed? Anyway, I'll shut-up. Alieve might reduce inflammation.

When I get sick I go on a warpath

Covid, like all viruses, starts in the nasal passages. I use Zicam extreme nasal congestion every night. And if I start feeling sick, then I'll use their Zicam Pre-Cold, which keeps the virus/cold from growing in the nasal passages and thus you're much less sick.

Since I started using the two, I have never been sick because it never gets to setup in the damn nose. It's like a secret weapon. Of course also drink lots of water, get a good 8+ hours of sleep, vitamin D (sun) and C are always great. Turn off the fear porn panic media, also because it can bring people down. LOL

Interestingly they're developing a covid19 nasal vaccine mist which I'm excited about because unlike the shots it'll target the nasal passages and lungs. It's bound to have less long-term side effects imo.

Okay that's all  

I think this is the most times porn has ever been mentioned before in SS history in an OWC thread, lol! You perverts make me sick!!!

You da man!  Funny!!  

I'm still struggling to come up with an idea to fit in 6 pages. How is everyone else going? Are you going to get something in or are you going to fail?

Take your time in answering, that's the great thing about a forum, there's no rush to post. I think I prefer it. I've dropped out of Twitter and Facebook, I'm too old for the others like Snapchat et al.

Worked on it yesterday for a bit. I think I've a pretty decent Act I & III but struggling to condense II. I had a great Festivus story but the "bitchin' stick" wasn't enchanted. Just a stick.

I never did Twitter or Facebook. From what I've seen, it would suck the lifeforce from me. I'm strictly LinkedIn and here on SS. That's all the time I can spend being social.

This is going to be my first OWC entry. It's a welcome distraction from working on a feature.

First draft is done. I spent a lot of time planning it, creating step outlines, using post-it notes and adopting a disciplined approach to writing.

Now all I have to do is cut 90 pages from the first draft and I’m done.

Got a first draft done.

Not sure - it is one of those things I like story-wise that really doesn't land well in OWCs - Have an idea for another one and am vacillating on pursuing that or trying to polish the first one.

Funny

Just a bunch of ideas so far... struggling with coming up with a concept where the ornament is actually important to the plot ;-(

I'm going to start, I doubt I will finish.

Don't really have a plan, just a starting point, who knows where it will end up (Well I do, the bin)

This is gonna be a game-time decision for me. If I do submit anything, I won't be able to write it until the end of the week, right before deadline.

Me too. I think you had it right with Ninja Day...lots of possibilties with an enchanted ninja star.  

Sadly, I'm out, as no one addressed my question about the ornament, and I don't want to spend the 97 hours it would take me to write the script, and then have it be disqualified.

But, I do look forward to reading and reviewing
