 Results for Round Six of writerinadrawer are in! I tied for third with We Could Be Anything. I'm a teeeeensy bit disappointed that I didn't do better, but considering that I was fearful of getting drawered this week, I'll most certainly take what I can get! :)

Next week is an optional (read: no-elimination) round; I haven't decided if I'm going to sit out or not ( Read more... )

WTG, though!

There were likely some voters who don't like second person no matter what the story is about, so well done in light of that.

Thank you! :)

I've gotten a couple of comments that the story didn't necessarily need to be in second-person; I'm considering a third-person extended re-write this week instead of the optional round. We shall see.

Yeah, I feel bad--I drawered you, so you got my blistering feedback. Just to let you know, I love second person, so that wasn't the factor. Well, it was but not because I hate second person. I know some people hate it on principle. I don't. I love it like burning.

Well, I figured I'd get at least a few drawer votes, so don't feel too bad. Although...how blistering is blistering? Like, hyperbole blistering, or I'd better go hide in my bunker blistering? :) (Haven't gotten my feedback yet, obvs, or I'd already know!)

HAAAHAHAH. I am the comment that said it read like a "choose your own adventure". So, uh, yeah.

Honestly, There were about four that I thought were on equal footing for drawering for me. I hate to say this, but this was a bad round. I actually blame the prompt more than the writers.

Me too! :D But if I were out, then you better believe I'd be writing the shit out of this week's prompt.

That was what Nick did last year! Got drawered, got reinstated the following week! It was awesome!

AHAHAHAHA yeah, I can totally see it.

"You are seventeen and at a picnic.
- You are too old for this. Go to page 2.
- You like picnics! Go to hell page 8."

(Also, no lie, this prompt was a real bitch to write for. I thought the seven things was the added item, and then Thursday night I looked again, and was like, SHIT, WOODLAND CREATURE!)

OMG I KNOW. I AM RIGHT THERE WITH YOU MAN. I thought last week was harder to write, actually, but maybe I just had a good idea this week.

Like I said. I do say some positive things. I like the wishing well. I like the portajohn part. LOL.

This week AND last week! Except this week I was wandering around the apartment asking, "Matt, what do you keep in your pockets? I don't know these things, none of my pants have pockets that are big enough to fit anything in!"

I was like, "If they were all armed, that would be four things right there!"
