RE: S&S Invitational: August

Enough about us, you came here for one thing: COMPETITION! It's literary blood sport where your foes are vanquished and you stand upon the pinnacle of victory with the wind in your hair, screaming to the sky as you revel in the glory!... Okay, maybe I got a little carried away, but I'm sure you're dying to know what this is all about, so let's get right to it.

LOLOLOLOLOL that is hilarious!!!! LOLOL

and yes - I agree - the more stories the better!!!! I don't like horror at all.... LOL it freaks me out - but..... I'm trying to think of a way that I could maybe put a spin on it that its not overtly horrifying.. but still spooky! hahahaha

but i know someone who LOVES horror that might be interested in this! hehehe

@darthsauron... have you seen this?? hehehehe you have 20 more days to enter!!!

Sort:  

Have you spent any more time thinking about how to put a spooky spin on something without it being overtly horrifying? Would LOVE to see your work here!

oh thank you so much for remembering me!!!! hehehehe

I haven't :(

I'm still trying to get my part 3 finished for today and its due in less than 5 hours LOLOL
shhhhhhhhhhhh don't tell the dreemers i'm still racing to beat the clock! hahahahahahahahahaha

oh - i jus saw that you said there are 6 days left... hmmmm

ok... ok! so i'm not out of the running yet! hehehehe

maybe i can still think of something hahahahahaha

Right, you've still got time, I'm just going around to potential contestants and poking them to see if they still want to be involved! I hope to see your submission, would LOVE to see what you bring to the table!

And don't worry, your secret is safe with me.... I won't broadcast to everyone that you put your own contest submission off till the last second... 😜 tbh, I get it. I do my best work when under pressure! !PIZZA !CTP

Hey, thanks for nominating new blood to enter the contest! We're always happy to see new faces. And yes, completely fine to put your unique spin on it! As long as the story is spooky/scary and high quality, it stands a chance! We're more likely to vote a well-crafted spooky story than a poorly crafted hack and slasher!

Great to see you here, looking forward to seeing what you bring to the table! !PIZZA

hehehe happy to! and I think he will have found a place to appreciate his scary stuff! LOLOL i can't read it - its too scary for me ROFLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

i will try to see if I can come up with something scary but honestly - if I start scaring myself - I'll just pass it on to someone else LOLOLOLOLOLOL

There are several significant Hack and Slash, books. It all depends on the story.
What gave you that impression? 😀🤣
Who am I kidding, there's nothing better than a writer's terrifying imagination!
"The Dark Half," "I Know What You Did Last Summer,", "Hideaway" or "Lives of the Mayfair Witches" - by Anne Rice.

hahahahahahaha he was saying "poorly crafted" hack and slasher. LOL

I don't think Anne Rice qualifies for poorly crafted anything! hahahahahahaha

Some say this about Koontz, Lois Duncan and even King.
She was one of the best authors, ever. She created characters from the bottom.
At least she's with the other great writers now...
Pratchett, Goodkind and so many more.
I had the chance to meet her when I was growing up, I will never forget it.
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks S&S, for this month's competition. And picking a genre inspired by so many great writers!

I know this is quite late, but I'm glad to see you here, and hopefully we'll see a submission from you? Would be really cool, if possible! You've still got 6 days!

I stopped writing horror years ago. They were too "SAW" like or too dark 🙂
I can post one, but my English was terrible then and the story is downright disgusting. Although it's almost based on an actual case - urban legend.
If I can find the photos too, of the hospital and the human bones we found.

Hey friend! I completely understand, tbh. If you would rather do something more spooky in nature rather than horrific, we'd totally accept that! Doesn't have to be a disgusting slasher to be horror! Unfortunately, we can't accept a repost of an older story, but I would like to see your story based on the urban legend and the photos, that'd be freakin' awesome! !PIZZA !CTP

It was not posted here. Still searching for the photos 😂 .
If i find them I'll post the story but i don't have time to edited it. Writing 5 books at the moment and I want to finish them first before writing new stories. 🙂
