Today has been slightly horrendous. One of the comments I got in the workshop was this: "I am still waiting for the story to break out into the unusual elements that will make it different from other stories of this genre." Oh, thanks. Great. I'm writing fantasy so generic that it has literally nothing setting it apart yet. (Also, same person suggested I cut the first 4,000 words of scene-setting and dump my readers in the middle of an action scene. If I'd started that way, I just know same guy would've complained that he hadn't a clue what the relationships were or what was going on. ARGH.)
Also, I put my hair up in a way that I thought looked quite nice. (I never put my hair up these days. It is hassle and it is difficult because I don't have the power to see the back of my own head. But I decided to today.) The only comment I got on it was: "New hairstyle. It's very ... interesting." (It did not sound like the good kind of interesting.)
So, overall, I'm feeling pretty crappy. On the other hand, I have this (and Hawaii Five-0) to come home to! So, not all bad. Onwards!
Day Eight of the Pretty Meme, and we're down to the final three contestants! Things are hotting up ...
THE RULES
1. I have picked 10 female and 10 male celebs I find attractive.
2. Every day, I will make a poll and you'll have to vote for the ONE girl and ONE guy you find the LEAST attractive (not so much who you like or don't like, but who you find hot or not not.)
3. After 24 hours, the poll will be closed and the man and woman with the most votes will be disqualified. There will then be a new poll with the remaining contestants.
4. After ten days, there will be two winners!!
In case of a tie, I'll look at the votes from the previous day and the person scoring consistently lower will be the one voted out.
Day Seven Losers
The boys once again had a tie. (A three-way tie, in fact!) But you were pretty much agreed for the girls ...
Jake Gyllenhaal
Morena Bacarrin
I've shuffled the images around so that the top three are clustered at the top of the image, next to each other for easy viewing side-by-side. :) I thought it might be helpful.
