Hmmm, very thoughtful topic this round. Should be some interesting entries.

[Salak]

*throws in towel already*

Even if I had the time at the mo to do a Writing Challenge entry, not sure the topic is one for me. Will prob sit this one out.

Intentionally, rather than due to not finishing my entry for once

[James T. Kolk]

If at hundred-and-eighty-seventh you don't succeed, throw in the towel, eh Sal?

Well, I'm gonna give it a shot. I can't pass up a topic with Latin in it!

[Salak]

LOL, something like that. Got a lot on my plate at the minute.

Plus if I dash expectations now, it'll be an even bigger surprise if I do actually wind up entering by accident

[Guest]

heh heh heh good call.

always thinking....

Why throw in the towel? Why not write something to support the effort, win or lose.

Besides, you'll never know if you can win if you don't try.

[Salak]

As said above, no time and don't wanna get anyones hopes up.

Not ruling out a possible entry at some point in the future, just prob not this round (really busy month, incl. my mum's 40th next week.)

Salak, I think your defeatist attitude was contageous. Very low turn out this round. I hope we get a few more this week...

[Salak]

There are usually a few late entries, aren't there?

[Idril Mar]

Typically... even by people who say they aren't gonna enter. *looks at Salak*

[Salak]

I stick by what I said before.

I can 99% guarantee I will not be submitting this time around, for various reasons (incl. medical grounds)

Righty, I'm coming to the rescue with a short filler

[Jordan aka FltAdmlWolf]

Shockingly low turnout!

[James T. Kolk]

See! I was right! Confirmation from the Great Wolf of the Galaxy...

[Toni]

With so many creative writers among us here at SB118, a low turn out is very disappointing. What can I do to help Admiral?

[Idril Mar]

Nice to see you entering again, Ben. The buttons right over the "Add Reply" is where you add the Arrow. It's the one marked with the ">" arrow sign.

Been writing in alternate characters too much I think.

Wow. talk about nappy-brained. you've got to worry when you can't remember your own name...

[James T. Kolk]

So, just to clarify: "nappy-brained" means "daiper-brained", right? I hope for your sake, Jhen, she doesn't remember that comment at our next promotion/demotion ceremony...
