I'd love to participate, but I'm way too pressed for time. I think I might have to go on haiatus from writing for a while.
Why do writers write? Because it isn't there.

Sarai go ahead and write one and we'll figure something out as far as critiquing is concerned. Okay?
And what of Henry, my Odysseus? Henry is an artist of another sort, a disappearing artist. Our life together in this too-small apartment is punctuated by Henry's small absences.

D; I hope I can finish it before I head to the beach.
Allow me to exaggerate a memory or two
Where summers lasted longer than, longer than we do
And nothing really mattered except for me to be with you
But in time we all forgot and we all grew

Mine's in--and not a moment too soon, either. My Stats professor decided that one project was not enough and gave us two (with two weeks left to go in the semester)! Guess what I'm doing tonight...

Proof-read carefully to see if you any words out.

Hey, I'm really sorry but I might have to pull out. It's half past midnight and I'm nowhere near finished and I leave at 7am. If I've not posted anything by Saturday morning you time then I haven't been able to finish. I'm sorry :( x

I'll be finishing soon, promise. It's Saturday, here, so that means I have a while... hopefully.

Sarai, I wish you GodSpeed!

And Kaz... Love the avatar. Hehe. Her expressions are just too good sometimes.

Hope your trip goes well, Sarai!

Good luck with your projects, Zelda! I feel your end-of-semester things piling up pain...

I'm finished. :D

Ugh, I promised myself I wouldn't do this - I'm just starting to write. I promise to have it in by midnight!

Yay! I'm done!

Took some serious time-shifting, but I'm done.

You should have my story, now, LLK!

TQ: Did you know where the song lyrics you'd chosen were from when you first picked them? Did you research and find out? Did it matter? For those of you who did look them up how did knowing the source material change the direction you were going with the piece? Did you like this particular added edge to the challenge or did you find it more bothersome than beneficial? From reading the piece you're critiquing would you presume the author felt the same way about the previous questions? Do you think she answered them the same way?
