A little change of pace:
Unfortunately no feedback or rankings from those who didn't post this week. Not the greatest of results, but here's what we have. My feedback will be up a bit later, I'm taking the lady to the movies tonight, so I'll post it up after. Hell of a World - Will - 1st, 1st, 1st = 3 Points Stinkin'...
I sent most of this information to you all via PM, but Will you didn't get it because your inbox is full. Weak round for turnout, but good for quality I think. Please even if you didn't write this round, still provide rankings and feedback for those that did. There are only four pieces so we...
Okay first of all, I know one story was posted slightly late. That person approached me ahead of time and I allowed them a bit of a grace period, so the fact that it was slightly late should not affect your ranking of it as I told him he wouldn't be penalized for it. It's also awesome to see...
Sorry, gents. Just started my job, it was the first week, and we had a semi-mandatory evening of losing brain cells. I'm now prepared to roll out this week's prompt: -Based on, inspired by, or directly citing the following quote: "The guilty are allowed, by human laws, bloody as they are, to...
Talk a little about the pieces you've written for 10-1 so far. What influenced/sparked the idea for each of your pieces? Rank your pieces in order of strength. Do you plan to rewrite anything you wrote in hopes of publication?
This is more or less just a thread trying to help each other out. We've all got our own perceived problems with our prose and/or creative voice, and sometimes it could be a simple suggestion from others (non-competitors, as well. The Joe/Schmidt/Josh/Pete, etc) that spurs a creative revolution and...
1. Dave (17, 14) = 31 Points 2. Ryan (35, 10) = 45 Points 3. Lee (26, 30) = 56 Points 4. Sean (32, 25) = 57 Points T5. Nate (37, 21) = 58 Points T5. Will (44, 14) = 58 Points 7. Jay (38, 33) = 71 Points 8. John (41, 49) = 90 Points 9. Andrew (54, 49) = 103 Points
So, the other week I was browsing around EW.com and stumbled across this 9 page preview of a book called "I Am Number Four" that has been optioned for a film and is the start of a six book series, apparently. ...
1. Skyscribes and Sons - Will (18 Points) T2. Random Battles Warehouse - Nate (19 Points) T2. Burn Man the Dragon Chaser - Dave (19 Points) 4. The Dragonknight - Ryan (20 Points) 5. Honor-Bound - Sean (21 Points) 6. Jamal vs King Dragon - Lee (40 Points) 7. Firedrake - Andrew (41 Points) 8....
Here's a giggle. There's a site called "I Write Like..." which apparently uses statistical analysis to say which author you write like. So, let's see which authors wrote our Write Club entries (Note - I left out the first line as they were all the same, obv). The Nine Lives of the Black...
Not dead, but starting to feel like death warmed up. Op happened so no more tonsils. Great medical staff so all precautions taken, no volatile anesthesia in theatre, triggers removed and antidote on standby. No hyperprexia, so good result. Still a bit of a tricky recovery with...
I don't know about you fellas, but this round has me up the walls. So far I've had a couple of very brief glimpses into ideas; unfortunately, nothing has come up clear. I'll be the first to admit that I have no experience with the fantasy genre, that this is making the brainstorming process more...
Ok, this is just for a bit of fun. We know who is eligible to take part this round, and we have an idea of ability. So, take a guess at the finishing order. It is just that, a guess; it can be an educated one, of course, based on previous track records, or it can be names from a hat. :)
Am I going mad or did someone, in a previous iteration of either 10to1|1 or 10to1|2 have a piece that revolved around a rooftop battle, between a superhero and a supervillain with a very literal 'punchline'?
Just because everyone seems to be slightly confused about this, as announced earlier the deadline for this round is Sunday night at 11:59 PM Eastern.
Hey everyone, another good turn out for round 2. Let's try and go with close to the same turnaround for feedback and rankings. Let's say mid-end week. Hopefully by Wednesday or Thursday have the rankings sent to me and then we'll begin feedback. Remember send them from your own account, and let me...
As the subject says, any concrete ruling on word count and deadline? My feedback for round 2 up later today.
Hi. I lucked out with winning, so I figured it's time to have stories about dragons. Genre: -- High Fantasy (think: JRR Tolkien, CS Lewis, George RR Martin's books, etc) Requirements/Theme: -- Dragons are the primary threat to anything and everything in your story, and should be present. ...
1. Scotty's Place - Ryan (10 Points) T2. Infanticide - Dave (14 Points) T2. Memento Mori - Will (14 Points) 4. The Two Stories.... - Nate (21 Points) 5. Possessing the Portrait... - Sean (25 Points) 6. The Last Meal .... - Lee (30 Points) 7. Scratch - Jay (33 Points) T8. Burden of Sorrow...
Andy has withdrawn from the competition due to personal reasons. He currently sits in last place, but isn't that far behind. Anyone want to take over his position? There'd be less commitment. But still the chance to make the playoffs. And still make a comeback of epic proportions. Post here...
