Yes you must!

And so must everyone else! Especially since we've all spent so much time talking about reviews and how important they are to all of us, I was kind of bummed when I just checked the stories out and saw such a small amount of reviews for ones posted. Hopefully that just means no one has read them yet, because if you have and just didn't leave a review, then FAIL!

I can understand people not wanting to read if they're still trying to figure out their own idea, but I agree, Mare, I do hope more people participate and then read and review the other submissions if they haven't already.  I think the anonymous reviewing is really interesting too.  It's been a long time since we had that on the site! LOL

I'm having just as much fun guessing who is reviewing as I am with who wrote the stories! LOL

I'm trying not to read because I'm still figuring out my storyline. But... really? That's a double miracle!  :D

We have a new entry!  "Nick and Belle...." http://absolutechaos.net/viewstory.php?sid=11146

Just a reminder that the story-writing part of this challenge ends August 31.  After that, we'll set up the guessing game part of it.  You still have a couple weeks to write, but it's coming up!

Last call for fairy tale challenge entries!  If you plan on participating, you have three days left to post your story.  The last day is August 31.  After that, I will ask for a list of names of people who participated, and then I will set up the guessing game part of it.

I added our last three submissions to the first post of this thread.  With that, the writing part of this challenge is over!  Now comes the "guess who wrote which story" part.  In order to set this up, I need to know who all wrote a story.  If you participated, please PM me.  You do not need to let me know which story was yours, just that you wrote one.'

Since it's going to be a busy week for me and I'm going to be gone next weekend, I'll give you a week to submit your name.  Please let me know you participated by next Sunday night (the 8th).  Guessing will start sometime the following week.

I'm glad so many people participated in this!  It's going to be fun trying to match up stories to authors!
