Important (OnGoing) Things in the Guild:

Big-Arse World Project by Sweetypop

Member Made RP by Sir Xian Luparn


None of the above are required, but both can only be accomplished through member contribution. There is no 'i' in Team, but there is an 'm-e', so give my all your base! pirate

((Whoa. wasn't this post different last month?- Sweety))

Lessee now. The first Guild Challenge has two more days until voting, so hurry up and enter already! We currently have 5 entries and 21 members, so you have a somewhat good chance of winning. Voting begins on June 30th!

Speaking of challenges, the Big-Arse World Project started a few days ago. Go get yourself a number!

Lastly, we are now 8th from the bottom of the results list that comes up when you search "Writer" as a keyword and "Interest Based" as a type. That may not sound great, but it means we moved up a bout four places in a few weeks.Yes, I am that obsessive. It''s summer vacation, and I have to stay home and watch my dog, so it''s not like there''s much more that I have to do.

One last thing! The post I am posting right now is the 399th! That means we are one post away from 400. Lovely.

OOH! I got an email from FanStory.com about a week ago which I was ignoring until now. They recently started some new contests. Let me quote it.

FanStory Email

Three contest deadlines approach. Now is a great time to be a writer on FanStory.com.
SHORT STORY CONTEST
Write a story that somehow incorporates the artwork we provide. The deadline is Saturday!

You will receive feedback for your story when it is posted. To the winner goes a pre-paid $100 Visa gift card . The gift card can be used anywhere Visa is accepted. In addition the winning story will be placed on our winners list.

Contest Details

POETRY CONTEST
Write a poem that incorporates the artwork we provide.

You will receive feedback for your poem when it is posted. To the winner goes a pre-paid $100 Visa gift card and the contest title for this contest. The gift card can be used anywhere Visa is accepted. In addition the poem will be placed on our winners list. The deadline is Tuesday!

Contest Details

IN A SINGLE DAY
We are looking for stories that focus on a character for a single day. The winner of this contest will receive a $100 Visa gift card (accepted anywhere Visa is accepted). The winning author will also be featured on a publishers website including an interview and biography that will be part of the promotion for a forthcoming short story publication by this publisher. The top three works will be considered for the upcoming publication. The deadline for this contest is July 8.

Contest Details

BOOK WRITING CONTESTS
Have you been putting off writing your book? You still have time to start writing your book online for our book writing contests. Get reviews for every chapter. Get motivated.

Details on Fiction Contest | Details on Non-Fiction Contest

That is just some of our contests((*)). Be sure to view our full contest listing.


A prepaid $100 Visa card for first place! Now I don't know about you guys, but I ain't rich, and this would be a nice addition to my savings account. In a Single Day ends in a little over a week though. If you plan to do it, get writing!

*funny how that was an email from a writer's site, but they managed to make such a grammar mistake. They talked about the contests in singular, not plural form. It should say "Those are" not "That is".

July 3rd

My sister is sating over this week, so I won't be around as much as usual. This a notice for everyone, but especially the members whose RPs I participate in. Also, tomorrow there will only be one day left to vote for the contest. Right now we only have 5 votes. 7 Entries, 21 members and 5 votes! That's dissapointing people. Around here, there's no electoral college, so I can truthfully say that your vote does count. So go vote, already!

My dad reinstalled my Sims 2 game last night. Long story. Anyway, if any of you has ever played The Sims, or the even more challenging The Sims 2, you are aware that the game is extremely addictive. Thus, I'll be on a little less than usual for the next week. By then I should have worked out a less obsessive playing schedule. Good thing we have Raven! Not that this guild really needs to be modded anyway. . .

If you're one of the smart people that actually reads the announcements, feel free to apply for the position of second crew member, as I need someone to accept guild applications (the only thing a mod really needs to do around here) and make sure everything keeps running smoothly when Raven and I can't be on. I already have a few people in mind, but I can't pick you if you don't ask! wink

Galdrea, being the first to ask and member with the second most posts in the guild (excluding myself of course) got the job.

And catch the worm for your breakfast plate.
Oh, if you're a bird, be an early bird.
But if you're a worm, sleep late.

I'm going ot Savannah, Georgia for a family mini-vacation, so I won't be around until late Sunday night. Well, I might be on because my dad's bringing his laptop, but it's unlikely since I don't think we'll have internet connection.
PostPosted: Thu Aug 18, 2005 8:42 am


August 18th- I fly out tomorrow morning for my year abroad and felt I should say good-bye one last time before skipping the country. If I can I'll come on once in a while and visit. It's been fun- talk to you all whenever I can!
