Poor Jim.

I felt the width before, now I feel your pain.

A sad day. :)

I really hope that it gets sorted out Jim, you say it's still possible to get the story?

Okay.

My brother and I have finished a short story for the contest, sorry it took so long to finally register. It's about 10,000 words, maybe a little more, 6 pages long.

It's called Loyalty Of A Dragon.

Can I put my short story "Day Off" in the contest or does it have to be something that hasn't been posted yet?

Guess what Qwerty?. I've made some sort of start with my fanfic, but only the first page. :)

It's a kinda 'Novel Screenplay' mealy because I want it to come across as a 'visual' novel. OK, I'm always different ( or even wacky ) but it should be within some sort of boundary.

My fanfic's called "The Ocho Rios Triangle" which takes Bond to Mexico, Jamaica, Australia, South Africa and Ian Fleming's home 'Goldeneye'. Bond is up against 'Columbian' Mafia.

Can I promise, that I'll have a full version asap?.

Obviously I won't be able to make this deadline, but if it's alright with you folks, I'll post it for approval when it's done.

Cheers Matey,


Ian

Well, I'm guessing Sun Tzu is this brother. And I seem to remember him posting in this thread to say he was in, but now I don't see it anymore.

*checks own list of writers*

Yet, Sun Tzu is on my list... strange. :)

Ah well, it is made clear in the story that it was written by 00Fan-008 and Sun Tzu.

Yeah, I added Sun-Tzu to the list as 00-Fan said he'd register with the site - I just don't recall him ever posting in the thread. (More of just me wondering.)

I've posted my entry for the -10,000 section of the competition. But I've started a discussion thread and given it exactly the same title as my story and I don't know how to change it. Could one of the administrators fix it, please?

Perhaps they could change the title of the thread to "Breathe a Second Spring - discussion" or similar. Sorry to be so idiotic. :)

With only one day left, it's looking like my story will have to wait for the spring CBR fan fiction contest. Deadline is midnight? What time zone?
