Can't wait to see what you have in store for us, my queen.

I wrote this when the challenge was posted, and spent this whole time getting the guts to post it. Please be gentle, I am not at all confident with my writing.

[yuyu!]

This idea was one of the best to hit the Librarium in... ever. Major props to yuyubabe for bringing this to us; I like this a ton.

I can't take credit for that, milord. Jules made it, and I created a smiley from it!

I am not a very good writer, but I'll be taking part too.

You got this, gurl! B) I shall add you to the list and read it soon enough!

Oh, I meant the challenges! I havent had this much fun with RMRK since Gracie's radio show. But now that you mention it, thank you Julie, I love it! :* :* :*

[yuyu!]

Ohhhhhhh! oh, right..
.
whoa i need sleep. goonight

[EvilM00s]

Sleep well, child. May Morpheus take you gently to fields of poppies and dragonflies.

[&&&&&&&&&&&&&]

I was involved in it's creation too... ;___;

[spoiler] :sad: [/spoiler]

[EvilM00s]

Were you? Then I thank you as well!

[FlameMaster5]

Well, Yuyu recruited me over here, and ever since I've had the blast of a lifetime over here! ^^
I mean, nice people, creative writers, artists, all the good shtuff! ;]

I have a recurring, terrible time with depression so this has been a nice sunny place for me to come hang and meet new peeps. The challenge is invigorating, all the stories are great!
Yum yum yum yum yum!

[Jules]

But now that you mention it, thank you Julie, I love it! :* :* :*

You're welcome

[yuyu!]

I promise I'll get to reading the new stuff soon. I've been a bit drained today, trying to write something I like. I think I'll just take it easy and wait until I feel comfortable with the next idea that falls in my lap.

I love writing, but I think I'm trying too hard lately (and running off of a couple hours of sleep last night. Yup, I'm insane).

[FlameMaster5]

Hmmm... Too bad... 
I wanted to do a Pain theme and write about torture, but... 



[spoiler]Hey, don't look at me like that! It's an important character development!
Every hero goes through torture, right?
.....Riiiiiiight?? 

These people probably think I'm sketchy. XD[/spoiler]


I'll continue thinking on my next theme.
More 2k-ish worthy and... A short story...
Why am I so terrible at SHORT? 

[yuyu!]

Takes practice! B) I'm a little *too* good at keeping things brief. Wait, is Pain already a theme? If not, we can make it one whenever we add more sometime in the future (I guess when we have more stuff lol).

I actually just wrote something with 1,600 words. Woah. That's a lot for me.

As it turns out, shifting my anger and disappointment towards myself into a gritty, detective, murder-case, mafia-related story was shockingly a good outlet. o.o

I'll have to look over this one some more, though. It's way different than what I'm used to.

[yuyu!]

It is posted. ;_;

I just can't get enough of this... from everyone or there will be weeping, wailing and a gnashing- A GNASHING- of teeth!

[Ser zacheatscrackers]

Alright, since my saga's coming to a close (one more story after this), I thought I'd work on some shorter, less complex and more optimistic. I just need some levity from all the dark stuff I'd been writing.

I'll have something up by tonight, I think.

[yuyu!]

I had a ton of fun in writing something completely opposite to what I'm used to. Would recommend a flip-flop to anyone stuck in a writer's rut!

I still have a bit of stories to catch up on - I think one by M00s, and one by Bree. I haven't forgotten about you guys!

And, I'm with m00s. schtories!!

[Gracie]

I started writing and now its 3000 words long and I haven't stopped whoops looks like I might not be submitting something for a while

[yuyu!]

Aye, we've had too many 3,000+ stories lately. o.o

Gracie: a neat trick might be to have someone proofread your story and help you determine what to cut out. Or, you could always make a two-parter, or post it as something not as a part of this challenge. :]

But if it ends up not being too much over 3k, we could probably just accept it and then draw the line after that.

[yuyu!]

I'm almost caught up on reading all of you guy's stuff! I just need to read zach's newer one.

Now go and write more stuff so I can be not-caught-up again, okay??

Need stuff!

[Ser zacheatscrackers]

Coming right up!

Have something more optimistic than my previous fare, madame.

[yuyu!]

I thank ye, sir! B) I shall read that once I get the chance!

I believe sir Sophist hath created one as well. I pray that everyone shall see to reading thine literature.

(I think I totally butchered that but ok)

[Ser zacheatscrackers]

lol nah n i g ga you goo 

[yuyu!]

Okay, here's links to Sophist's The Dark East, Lord Stark's A Man of His Word (Part 2/3), and (once again) Zach's From Worry To Love!

Also, I included within each short story title (on the op) if it was a part of a story, as Stark did in his latest addition! The only thing I was confused on was how to list Flamemaster's stuff. Right now, I have them in order of occurrence, but if she would like, I can list them in order of how she posted them. B) Also, we haven't seen her around in a couple days, so...cooooooooooome baaaaaaaack (please)! ;_;

[Ser zacheatscrackers]

Yeah, I need people to fan my flames, too.

HAHAHAHA naaaaw I miss her too; probably just my short-term memory messing with me, but I think she came by briefly yesterday, iuno.

Also, yuu, there's technically one more part of D&R I'm planning on doing, so change the list order from (1/3) to (1/4) and whatnot when you're able to. THXXXXxxxxxxx
