Anyone done with their shorts? I’m almost done with one, got two more to go. But was wondering if anyone was interested, we could swap shorts to review or seek help in a story plot line?

Sure I would read. Just put a link of an online storage in here or contact me via my email which you find at the title page of my teaser Zone at the lower half of this thread :

I’ll send it via email once done. As opposed to that teaser, have a you finished a short for this feature?

Cool. Don't worry if it's a work in progress

I got some pages, yes, just writing the second one in the next days. If those are really "short stories" by definition is hard to say. Yes and No. I ran a bit wild I guess. The pictures do ignite an "angle" related to the picture, but it's more of a part that's integral to the whole feature as well. I didn't procced like "there's a picture and one story about it from A to Z- next " ... In mine there are differnt timelines interrupting the the picture's short segment. I didn't stay in the short all along so to say,; hard to explain....

I also will probably have only two paintings, no wraparound. The story simply developed that way and, well, it's a feature and not painting by numbers From my side it'd be okay if someone of you is a bit off from the parameters as well. I just hope to finish, you know.

I get you. The only reason why I asked was so that it’ll be even, a short for a short. The link is for a teaser opening which doesn’t seem to be fair lol. I consider mine to be shorts independent from the longer story I’m working on within the feature. We’ll definitely be called out on some rules here but as long as we finish it’s all good.

Woah, 19 days left and I just started. But I cranked out 10 pages yesterday and I know what I'm writing about and where I'm going with this. Still, don't think I will manage to hit the finish line by that time.
But I'll read as many as I can.

I don�t doubt your abilities khamanna . I have a “70/30 for� hunch you�ll have it in by deadline.

Gabe

Thanks, Gabe. Now I just need to live up to your expectations and not let your hunch down!))

When I was younger, I never wore them. I kinda like them now though. I even buy expensive brands as they are usually of a high quality cotton.

Hey, received your mail and will read and reply soon. When it comes to my stuff I actually don't think about editing and reconsidering now, don't know. I just look forward to get a draft done. But I can send you my whole 20+ pages if you like to look into...

Best wishes

Send it. I need to get back into screenwritering again.

Gabe

I am making better progress than I expected, and will probably actually have something to submit.

Roughly the first half is written (two vignettes plus wrap-around material) if someone might want to swap reads for one or two stories. Vignette 1 ("Sister versus Sister") is 17.5 pages and Vignette 2 ("A Moment of Reflection") is about 11.5 pages.

I’ll give it a look. Gabrielmoronta@aol.com.

Thanks, I’ll send it over as soon as I get a chance. And send back what you’d like some feedback on.

So, comparing your handle and your email... is your email address based on the British spelling of Ripley?
