Aphelion

This area of the board is for writers to challenge one another to impromptu writing challenges, share interesting but non-writing related news stories and links, and whatever other randomness folks care to engage in.

Have fun!

Er...we did tell you about it. Right here. Did'ya want a phone call? ;)

Nate has suggested he will offer another challenge on 8 June. (Which is former Aphelion Poetry Editor Kim Holec's birthday, apropos of nothing.)

ok, when's the next flash fiction challenge and HOW COME NOBODY TOLD ME ABOUT THE FIRST FREAKING ONE ARRRGGGHHHHH!

Like Rob said, I plan on posting the June flash fiction challenge tomorrow, June 8, in the afternoon or evening. I have the sample story ready & waiting.

This one will run a bit differently than the last time, based on suggestions received. Details will be posted tomorrow as well. Hope you'll give it a try.

There is an ancient saying in Grrrwaarlooom:

Rwaaaaragrrrngoooorlllmmmmm.

The literal translation is (felinoid grammar aside)

He who sleeps when the (antelope-equivalent) herd passes never tastes the liver and heart of the prey.

In humanoid terms,

You snooze, you lose.

(Of course, I ENTERED and lost, so not snoozing may not help.)
