Carter-Orange:
I'd love to take part, but haven't written anything for so long, I have nothing that hasn't already been submitted for a challenge :( Is there any other way I can take part? Even just reading? Otherwise I'll see what old stuff I can use.
Sorry I've not been around much, I've hardly had chance to get online as have been working longer hours and have been stressed over wedding stuff, only 6 weeks to go and still so much to do!
mare:
Hey Steph! Yes you can just be a reader if you'd like. The only problem we have right now is that there are only two people participating with stories. I'm hoping more will come forward. I might extend the deadline. I think Pammy also wanted to be a reader.
6 weeks! Wow!
FrickingKaos:
Aww steph congrats on your engagement. I remember when you got together and I'm happy to hear you're getting married. Great news
mare:
Well, the deadline has passed so should I extend? Is anyone interested besides Tracy & Rose? I know the two participants have already read all my stuff (supposedly lol) and I think Tracy might have also read the stories Rose has submitted which means she would have nothing to read for the challenge. I wasn't really planning to do it this year because honestly, I have no desire to read fanfic but I'd be willing to as long as I know that other people are wanting to do this.
I am going to extend the deadline by a week. Maybe if we can't do it how we normally have in the past, we might instead recommend stories or something. I hate to see this thing totally die, so if anyone else has any other ideas, feel free to speak up!
