Patiently.  To flood the Forum with our Rd 2. stories.

I can't wait to share what I created this weekend and read all of yours as well! <3

Ack, I know! I'm always on such a high right after submitting I wish I could dig into other folks' stories right away.

Patience is not one of my virtues.

Was so excited this morning thinking I’d get to read some other stories… and then I came online and remembered that it’s usually a few days before we can share Pinch

I'm not super happy with my story so I'm kind of nervous about sharing. I got thriller/moving truck or van/cash register. what the hell?? I did the best I could. Actually I could have probably done better with a different idea but it was the only one that came to mind and I dont have writer friends to bounce ideas off of so it is what it is. I'll be surprised if I get even 1 point.

Those prompts point me immediately to a hold up / getaway scenario. I hope you post so I can read it!


Does anyone know when they open up the forum to posting?

Typically the all clear email comes on Wednesday - but could be any time from late morning to late evening (NYC time).

Ha that's where my head went first, but then it went to a kind of hostage situation so I went in my more twisted direction. I guess I'll post it. If anything it'll thicken my skin a bit.

As for posting, I was hoping it would be today but it seems like it'll be tomorrow.

I have posted some really jumbled up messes and never felt like anyone picked on me, they were really supportive. I go by the credo that I wrote it, so it is what it is. I would post if I were you.

People tend to share feedback in a kind and helpful manner.  I don't think anyone's here to just tear anyone else down.

I hope the all clear comes earlier in the day!  I want to read everyone's stuff! <3
