I hear the sound of tumbleweeds blowing by here...Where has everyone gone???
It's been pretty quiet here the last few weeks....Did everyone win wotf??? Or is everyone just working on their stories for Q4 like me???
I was thinking that too.

I hadn't noticed that many people gone. By nice if that many won, at least to finalist. Supposedly I am writing a new book, rewriting-not revising rewriting-one I just finished not so long ago. Hmm, this one may just be less than 50,000 words.
I know which story I will do for 4, already done actually. Just need two to four people to look it over. Unless another event happens of course than I won't need one anyway but as of now I do.

I noticed that there wasn't a single post yesterday, and was like "maybe something is going on with the Q2 results".

Scuttlebutt says it’ll be next week or later. Slow quarter. I suspect that means it was another huge quarter - stiffer competition, more slush to wade through, plus its summertime which is slow in publishing anyway.

Oh, no, it's definitely speculative fiction with a western setting. There's werewolves and sasquatches in them there woods.
If you are in difficulties with a book, try the element of surprise: attack it at an hour when it isn't expecting it. ~ H.G. Wells
If a person offend you, and you are in doubt as to whether it was intentional or not, do not resort to extreme measures; simply watch your chance and hit him with a brick. ~ Mark Twain

I should be in a writing mood but I am just a little-on other stuff since I have the next quarter already done.

I'm almost done with my Q4, just doing some tweaking here and there....:)
I can watch with casual disinterestedness (the Jane Austen usage of disinterested) because I have no skin in the game for Q2. I sure wish I'd submitted something so I could be waiting with baited breath like everyone else
