Hey Steph!

It's 1.25am here in the UK and I was going to bed at 8pm, getting up at 4-5am to see the prompts and look at me now! Looked at my winter ravaged garden this evening and went out.....cleaned and painted 2 lots of decking, strimmed and did the first summer mow of the garden because I just would not be able to look at it all weekend like that.....so coffeeeeeeeeeee!

I'll be intravenously injecting it by tomorrow afternoon!

While waiting for the prompts I become ambitious so set my screen clock to New York time, 8:33 PM.

Dang! Look at you go! I should actually be OFF the forums right now because I have 15 pages of my WIP (Miss White's Vivacious Voices!!) due today...and I definitely NEED to have them submitted before the prompts are released!

T-minus 3.5 hours!
7 pages to go!
That's 2 pages an hour!
Can't you tell the coffee has kicked in?!

Go girl! You can smash that out of the park!
The trouble with the forum is though...... it's like that scene from A Bug's Life.... "Don't look at the light!"
"I can't help it, it's so beautiful!"

P.S. Really great you're developing your wonderful R1 piece!

I'm going to bed. Plan is to wake up delirious at midnight, read the prompts with half closed eyes (the liiiiiiight!), fall back to sleep, and the concept will form in a dream. It's definitely gonna work. Aaaaaaaand...LIGHTS OUT!

I agree....dreams are great.... often inspiration comes in a dream. Glad I'm not the only one who has that!

This is my usual plan, lol. Although I haven’t done this contest for awhile (usually just do the short screenplay), having more than 48 hours seems a luxury

Best of luck all!

Does copious amounts of alcohol and taking wild guesses at assignment while irritating family nonstop count?
