Hello, chicks and chaps. Welcome to Write me a Story. Do you like writing? Do you like a challenge? Well, this may be the contest for you. The aim of this contest is for you to write a story, which meets the current theme. It can be long, it can be short, it can be anything you like as long as it's a story and meets the theme set. There will be two winners, a public choice and my personal choice. Each will receive a badge. As you can tell, I suck at writing these things so I'm going to stop now.

5. Entries should be grammatically correct and spell-checked.

2009-07-13 [Atayemi]: We'll see. :)

2009-07-13 [Linderel]: Amg! *gives this to brain to work on*

2009-07-13 [Chimes]: :D Hooray!

Lami, you didn't stalk... :O

2009-07-13 [Linderel]: Oh fine. :P *lurks*

2009-07-13 [Chimes]: Yay! All is right in the world!

2009-07-13 [The Dizzy Raven]: oooh! I wish to participate!

2009-07-13 [The Dizzy Raven]: define "antique" or what you mean by it

2009-07-13 [Atayemi]: I think that Chimes wants you to make your own reading of it. :) So you write about what you think antique means. That way everyone will have different ideas.

2009-07-13 [Chimes]: Atay hit the jackpot :P

2009-07-13 [Atayemi]: MONEYZ.

2009-07-13 [The Dizzy Raven]: ah, I see ^^

2009-07-13 [nehirwen]: I suck in the art of words, but thanks for the invite. :P

2009-07-13 [Chimes]: *sniffs*
You're welcome. :P

2009-07-13 [The Dizzy Raven]: well, do you mind if I put the wiki name first and then start typing it in? That way, if I get off later, I can be reminded to work on it. I'll just put a viewing password up and then when i'm finished, i'll let everyone view it. ^^ does that sound ok?

2009-07-13 [Chimes]: Sure. Put [in progress] next to it. :)

2009-07-13 [Captain Rachel Black]: *hovers over wiki*

2009-07-13 [The Dizzy Raven]: thanks! ok ^^

2009-07-13 [Yuriona]: Is there a deadline yet?

2009-07-13 [Chimes]: Not yet.

2009-07-13 [Flisky]: Hmmm....*starts brainstorming*

2009-07-13 [The Dizzy Raven]: hey, chimes. I'm thinking about etting you be the only one to see it until I'm done. I'll send you the password

2009-07-13 [Chimes]: :P There are a few people on this wiki that can see it regardless of the password. *Skills*

2009-07-13 [The Dizzy Raven]: oh I see lol
kk

2009-07-13 [pixish]: *watches*

2009-07-13 [Chimes]: Ooo. A Pixi!

2009-07-13 [The Dizzy Raven]: Well, just let me know if something's not ok with it. i hope I did alright with the picture credits and decore.

2009-07-13 [Chimes]: You can decorate them how you like. :P

2009-07-13 [The Dizzy Raven]: ok thanks ^^

2009-07-13 [sequeena_rae]: Nice idea :)

2009-07-14 [Chimes]: Fankoo. :)

2009-07-14 [Akayume]: I love this idea! I am excited to enter! I need to juice up mah skillllzzz! :D

2009-07-14 [Chimes]: Woo!

2009-07-14 [sequeena_rae]: I think I will have a go, I'm not promising anything though, it's been so long since I wrote anything

2009-07-14 [Chimes]: :) I can't wait to see.

2009-07-14 [Yuriona]: Meh... interesting premise though the idea I'm getting from this is probably old and overdone. Ah well, I might give this a try but considering all I have on y plate atm, I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you. :P

2009-07-14 [Chimes]: :P Well. I'm glad that you thought about it even if you don't have time. :) Makes me happy inside.

2009-07-14 [Yuriona]: I do a lot of thinking. Probably why I never get anything done. ;) LMAO!

2009-07-14 [Alexi Ice]: *Places page on watch*

2009-07-14 [Triola]: *ditto*

2009-07-14 [Nioniel]: *watches*

2009-07-14 [Alexi Ice]: I don't know about the theme ATM, but eventually I will DEFINATLY join the fun!

2009-07-14 [Duke Devlin]: It's like a mini portfolio contest. oO :O

2009-07-14 [Duke Devlin]: Does length overly matter?

2009-07-14 [Chimes]: The beauty with me is you can stretch the theme :P

2009-07-14 [Linderel]: And how does that differ from the PC? The stretching, that is? :P

2009-07-14 [Chimes]: It doesn't I was replying to... Akane. :P I didn't refresh for an age.

And no, length does not... quality does though. :P

2009-07-14 [Linderel]: Ahs xD

2009-07-14 [Alexi Ice]: Ah...I wonder how FAR I could strech it? That might be the fun of it though ^^ *Smiles* I shall give it a shot!

2009-07-14 [Chimes]: :) Excellent.

2009-07-14 [Nioniel]: :)
I'm horrible at writing stories...poetry I can do, stories, not so much, but this is a great wiki!

2009-07-14 [Chimes]: Fankoo.

2009-07-14 [Nioniel]: mhm :)

2009-07-15 [The Dizzy Raven]: mine's taking forever to finish. XD

I'm stuck in a writer's block

2009-07-15 [Chimes]: Well, I haven't even thought up a deadline yet :P

2009-07-15 [The Dizzy Raven]: so that's somewhat a good thing I suppose.
A posted deadline would motivate me and possibly some others to move faster, though. lol

2009-07-15 [Chimes]: It would but I need to ponder how long I want this open for and what I'm doing around any deadline time :P

2009-07-15 [The Dizzy Raven]: Yeah, I understand what you mean.

2009-07-25 [Chimes]: Deadline posted!

2009-07-25 [The Dizzy Raven]: yay!! ^_^

2009-07-26 [Duke Devlin]: OMFG NUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

2009-07-26 [Chimes]: Why is this a bad thing? xD

2009-07-26 [Duke Devlin]: .... Why nawt? ;D

2009-07-26 [Chimes]: Touché

2009-07-26 [Duke Devlin]: *feels awesome*

2009-09-26 [Duke Devlin]: I should enter this.... :O Since the deadline is in a couple of days. o___O

2009-09-26 [Linderel]: ...holy fuck. o_o Time moves so fast!

2009-09-26 [Duke Devlin]: I know. XD I take it you plan on entering too? ;)

2009-09-26 [Linderel]: I've had a banner and a vague idea for weeks now.

2009-09-26 [Duke Devlin]: I have an idea, which I got a little while ago. XD I should probably write it down....

2009-09-27 [The Dizzy Raven]: time did move fast and I still need to finish mine... I beleive I have finally thought up a perfect ending. you'll see ;)

2009-09-27 [Chimes]: I can extend the deadline if any of you want an extention?

2009-09-27 [The Dizzy Raven]: I might need an extention. but not a long one.
depends on how many others need one

2009-09-27 [Linderel]: Please do? :3

2009-09-27 [Chimes]: Sure thing. I'll wait for more people before I decide how long. :)

2009-09-29 [The Dizzy Raven]: awesome kk

2009-09-30 [Chimes]: Ignore the current deadline. :) I cannae be bothered to delete it right now.

2009-10-24 [Duke Devlin]: RAWR to deadlines, and my FAILURE to write.

2009-10-26 [Coin Operated Boy]: Come on! You can do it!! :D

2009-10-27 [Duke Devlin]: *suddenly collapses, and slyly crawls away* .... *has written stuff, but it's for her novels XD*

2009-10-27 [Coin Operated Boy]: Come one! It will only take you a few hours to pound out something that's like 1500 words!! :D And it will be fun!

2009-10-27 [Triola]: It took you more than a few hours, dear :P

2009-10-27 [Coin Operated Boy]: Well technically it didn't! I just kept putting it off.

2009-10-27 [Chimes]: Well, there's currently no deadline... :P Since I'm rather busy.

2009-10-27 [sweet.tx.tea]: Weee! No deadline!

2009-10-28 [Duke Devlin]: Haha well, considering the fact that I have a degree to be studying for... XD I'll get to it if I have a chance. Good thing Chimes just started uni as well. ;)
(We'll ignore the fact that our first year doesn't count towards anything <__<)

2009-10-28 [Chimes]: (It's ... morally enriching? :P No no... It allows you to become familiar with your liver. :P)
Yep. Student life. Love it. Now that I have had a healthy 20 minutes of procrastination... I shall do my work... Seee! See what Uni does? I time my procrastination now. XD I allow time for procrastinating... I'm doomed.

2009-10-28 [Triola]: Haha well, considering the fact that I have a degree to be studying for... XD

I like how that makes it sound like all us others who submitted don't have degrees to study for :P

2009-10-28 [sweet.tx.tea]: Ugh. I am currently at a community college. I am still deciding on a university. I will have basically full ride scholarship no matter where I go. The problem is picking a school that suits me and that suits my fiance's plan. I am also a triple major. :0

2009-10-28 [Coin Operated Boy]: Try to steer clear of California! The cost of living down here just isn't worth it!

2009-10-28 [Skydancer]: If you are interested in a school with a strong ecological curriculum, try Warren Wilson College in NC. :)

2009-10-28 [Aeolynn]: I'm lucky, because I live with my mother and she is cool, lets me live with her and pays for my college >.o so if that's the case, living here in CA isn't so bad!

2009-10-28 [sweet.tx.tea]: That is what I have heard; I was accepted to Berkley. I looked at apartments in LA. $1000 for a CHEAP one. Here in Texas, $550.

XD Thanks, Sky! I am not sure of what to do. I am considering med school.

Aeo, that is awesome! I am still living at home. :/

2009-10-28 [Coin Operated Boy]: If you have any kind of job experience you can usually find a job that will pay enough to live on. The cost of living is higher here, but so is the pay :).

2009-10-29 [sweet.tx.tea]: Yeah...jerks! :P

2009-11-01 [Duke Devlin]: Triola, I only mentioned it... Yeesh. :P I happen to find my degree study more important than entering contests. XD
But anyway... :P

2009-11-01 [Triola]: And again, you seem to be implying that the rest of us don't :P Stop while you're ahead ;)

2009-11-02 [Kaimee]: I'm scared to comment in case it turns out I'm implying something also ;)

2009-11-02 [Duke Devlin]: I'm not implying anything of the sort: it's simply what you are reading into it! :P
Thank you for seeing that also, Kaimee XD

2009-11-02 [Triola]: Joking, people :P

2009-11-03 [Kaimee]: Of course :)

2009-11-04 [Duke Devlin]: :)

2009-12-03 [Mediocracy At It's Best]: Ooh, this could be fun...I'll see what I can pull together. is this going to keep reoccuring? Like, new story contests after this?

2009-12-03 [Chimes]: There will be more than one round. I just don't know when I'll be able to start a new one. :) It'll probably be a while yet. University and all.

2009-12-03 [Mediocracy At It's Best]: totally understand, just wanted to keep a watch on this if it were to keep going! :D

2009-12-04 [Chimes]: :)

2010-02-02 [Sagacious Turkey]: bump

2010-02-02 [Chimes]: Must you bump through comments? Could you not bump by entering? :P

2010-02-11 [Sagacious Turkey]: Absolutely not.

2010-02-11 [Chimes]: Why not? D:

2010-02-11 [Sagacious Turkey]: Uh... I'm illiterate? Yeah, that's it...

2010-02-11 [Chimes]: Pah. Lies. Go oooon. Give it a tryyyy.

2010-03-27 [Duke Devlin]: We all know that's lies! D: ... I might write for this today.

2010-09-05 [Linderel]: I so need to kick my muse about this again.

2010-09-05 [Chimes]: You do. I need more entries. D:

2011-04-22 [Akayume]: *poke*

2011-04-22 [Chimes]: Yes. More entries. More finished entries too. Still a-waiting. :P

2011-04-22 [Akayume]: Hey, I finished mine.

2011-04-22 [Chimes]: Yeah but I want moooore entries than 3 complete ones. :P

2011-04-22 [Akayume]: ...Could I submit a SECOND one? To make FOUR!?! :O :O

2011-04-22 [Akayume]: I could enter under my alter-ego. That's another person, right? :P

2011-04-22 [Chimes]: Sorries. :P Nope. Someone messaged me a few days ago and mentioned this and their want to enter. :P HOPEFULLY!

2011-04-22 [Akayume]: So... then we'd have four. :P That's a good, even number that you can take the square root of!

2011-04-22 [Chimes]: 10 would be nice but I'd settle for 6. :P

2011-04-22 [Akayume]: Start poking people with sticks. That usually gets them going.

2011-04-22 [Alexi Ice]: Hmmmm. I'll write one up if I have time

2011-05-01 [Sagacious Turkey]: I SAID BUMP.

2011-05-01 [Linderel]: I don't even remember what my idea for this was xD Or I do, vaguely, but it has become tepid. You don't drink tepid plots.

2011-05-01 [Sagacious Turkey]: You can't tell me what I do or do not drink. *chugs turpentine and tepid plots*
