I'm hoping someone else in my group posts so I can see what the hell others have done! 



I chuckle every time I read your title because my mind goes elsewhere LOL

Group 2:  Fantasy / Battlefield / Mirror

Play At Your Own Risk

When a group of friends play a board game, they discover that the repercussions are greater than expected. 


Not my finest logline or script. Hahaha.

Thanksgiving for us Canadians had this thing slip my mind a little bit. Got home late and wrote this in 30 minutes. Luckily my wife was still awake to give it a quick edit before submission.

THE SPY WHO BUTTERED ME

A government spy must infiltrate a criminal organisation operating in an old coal mine in order to gather           
information on its activities.

Hello there fellow namesake and genre buddy. The 'Spies' have it methinks. And you're UK based too. How bloody crippling is this deadline for us Brits? It's time to go to work but I'm still in hyper post-submission mode.

Have I buttered you up enough? Looking forward to your story!

Hey fellow namesake!

Yes, the time zone sucks for us UK based. Funnily, I’m temporarily in NYC. So this time, I didn’t go to bed at 5am...And only uploaded two drafts - slight diversion from the usual 10-15!
I’ll make sure I pop over your corner :-) Spy is a tough cookie - at least for me. Px

Haha! Love this title, fellow Group mate! LOL Can't wait to read it.

Hiya - it will be fun to read yours too! Butter and a hot coal mine don’t really go well together. Struggled a bit there...

I like the sound of this!  Very caper-ish and fun.  Can't wait to read!

I also have a beauty treatment with serious consequences in mine!
