First time! I finished the first draft in an hour and was like, "Oh cool, I'll be done soon and have the rest of my Saturday free." I hit submit the last time 10 hours later.

I'm proud of my premise, but worried that in my attempts to be terse my story reads more like a clumsy poem.

Good luck everyone!

Hello, heatmate! I am excited to read yours! Welcome to the world of Multiple Submissions Over Multiple Hours! :D

I'm group 86 - horror / hiking a mountain / heat.

"Hasn't what?" you say? Well, I guess you'll have to read it and find out ;)

Out of interest, watch ones have made your must-read list?! 

I'll admit I've been skimming this thread since there's soooo many amazing sounding stories, but a few titles that really stood out to me were:
  • "I Love Doughnuts (a Little Too Much)" - ramblejamble
  • "Pre-Mortem Photography" - taaaylor
  • "Abelard and Heloise - The Cheeks of the Devil are the Buttocks of God" - rexlexfex 
  • "Love Needs to be Blind" - swifmatives
  • "We Longed to Return, and So We Did" - TelepathicTeaTime
  • "Choosing to Burn" - thee_gray_lady
Aaaaand finally as an honourable mention is Reasonably_Crazy's "The Gardener" - technically I already read this one in beta but it was brilliant so I'm insisting everyone else read it too! :)

Charlie will open the new subforum sometime this morning and then LadyA, katie100, and I will start setting up the Master Lists. I will also post step-by-step instructions on how to post/get listed.

However, do not post your story until you get the go ahead email from NYCm. They tend to come in waves, so people might start posting before you receive yours.
