"Yvonne poured herself a drink and melted into the chair across from Callie. She brushed a strand of moltenly hair from her eyes and proceeded to carve the ham. Callie watched intently. Juice streamed from the ham in rivulets like saliva drooling from the fierce jaws of a wild dingo poised over the dead carcass of its prey in the dingo-eat-dingo world."

And you thought YOUR writing STUNK??? LOL! Msg me for a link to the free .PDF preview version of the full novel.

Sounds like a sick joke we'd pull..
Unfortunately, we'd get in massive trouble for it in all likelyhood.
A "Better you than we!" ping.
There are worse ideas than what I come up with!

[Mongeaux]

Say "travis Tea" really fast 3 times and you get the "Name" joke

Well....it is a vivid word picture.

If a bit stomach turning.

[Darksheare]

Travesty, I know.

[Mongeaux]

k - just making sure. It took me a bit to get, but I am slow that way.

[Darksheare]

Described my writing quite well, so I got it.
*chuckle*

That IS a great idea for FReeperhood. Get a bunch of us together to each bang out a chapter ... Could be pretty damn funny.

[Mongeaux]

I, for one, am encouraged im my writing by this abomination. I know I am not that bad and even if I am - I can still get published!

No set standards of good or bad in The Arts! Thank GOD for Liberals!

[Darksheare]

Was a bad idea that was thought up last year, to have a thread where everyone writes a different part in the next post.
Difficult in action due to many posting at the same time.
We didn't do it since we didn't know if it'd get pulled.

[Mongeaux]

I agree - it could be some lefty symbolic tome in the "A Handsmaid's Tale" genre.

[tet68]

Seems like we did that a long time ago, during the reign of
Clintonius the 1st.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

You have to go read the reviews.

Amazing. Incredible. Mind-bending. Sweet. Coy. Surprising. These are all words. Some of them are found in this book.

[JennysCool]

Ha! That WOULD be a little tough to control!

[Darksheare]

I draw, and am somewhat upset that stuff that looks like my cat created it gets twelve grand.

[Mongeaux]

"After reading Atlanta Nights, I had the same gut feeling about it as I did about my intestines after my last colonoscopy."

[Darksheare]

LOL!
"Some of them are found in this book"!

[Darksheare]

Yeah!
Unless a group of people decided to write from one character's point of view, another group wrote about the action, and there was some collaboration between the two to mesh the halves?

[Mongeaux]

"The especially beloved and completely incoherent Chapter 34 was written by a text generator that had been fed some earlier chapters.

But the book's moment of true genius comes, not when one of the characters wakes up and realizes that all of the foregoing chapters were a dream, but when that happens AND THEN THE BOOK CONTINUES ANYWAY. "

[Do not dub me shapka broham]

Hey!

I resent the implication that my writing does not, in fact, "stink."

How many of you boast of the fact that you were rejected for an (unpaid) position on the staff of The New York Press?

HA!

I'd like to see you top that.

(Smug grimace.)
