The Sixth TvTropes Writing Contest

Uh, the possibility of me being able to participate this time is pretty small; if I get something done, I'll send it in, but, yeah...

@jeweled thanks!

I really need to start writtng. Designing a hero is harder than I tough lol.

Finished my entry. Waiting for feedback.

Still making occasional edits.

I might have plans for this story if I win the contest. If I could find an artist, and figure out how to use Ren'Py, I have the feeling it would make a really good Kinetic Novel.

Edit: Hey! That was spoilered for a reason!

Well, there'll probably be more than one story in this contest that could reasonably be adapted into that format, so I don't have to worry too much about anonymity.

Kinetic Novel.

Huh, I learned a new term today.

Ten days, people. Let's get some entries in!

I'm finished, I'm just awaiting feedback from some people.

Where an I going to get 900 more words ?

I've decided to stop editing at this point. I've got at least a functional story, and while there are things I'm not happy with, I'm not sure anyone else will care about them.

OK, so that's three entries...

Actually, it's always like this. I'll probably get six more on March 8.

Mine will probably be among them. XD

I finally have a draft, though. I was up till 7 AM writing it.

It took me a long time to settle on an idea, but I finally picked one of the three I had bouncing around. Let's hope I didn't choose poorly.

Three days left. I've got three entries so far.

Is the current formatting rule that the song/lyrics links must be in the body of the story, or merely that they can either be in the body or linked separately?

Yeah I've had a rough schedule and still need to revise things a bit. It will be up thursday.

I've finished a story. Still have some editing to do, though.

I am on a test period so I hope I can end on time :)

I'd like to know that last question, too.

"or merely that they can either be in the body or linked separately?"

The latter.

I tried writing mine only to completely hate it and realize it wasn't working. Since I can't exactly come up with a new idea in three days, I'm probably out.

Ditto here. I had something sentimental in mind only to realize I can't write sentimental to save my life. ^_^;

So yeah, I'm out. Sorry.

I've also failed, I'm afraid. I keep re-writing it, only for it to turn into Woman's Weekly stuff yet again. I should keep away from schmaltz, is what I should do.

I should have picked a bubble-gum tune, not something with a little haunt to it. <bangs head on table>

PM me if you want to find out more about Weeping by Bright Blue — or Google it.

Is there a preferred song lyrics website?

'Bout the deadline: March 9 midnight as in 11:59 PM March 8, or 11:59 PM March 9?

The latter.

How many entries we got so far?
