Challenge #40: A Time for War

Jan 09, 2004 14:21

I wanted to do this challenge when it was first suggested, but at the time, I thought there was far too much war around. Our loved ones were being shipped off to it, every time we turn on the TV there is mention of it, and there are many, many debates on it, even (or especially) here on LJ. However, with the new year, my foolish hope is renewed ( Read more... )

Ooh, this one sounds good.

And I cannot yell at me fellow Slytherins this time through, because I was too busy to write this week...heh.

Slinks away into a very dark corner and vows to write more this week regardless

Someone spiked the pumpkin juice at our table this week. That must be it.

I concur. Sounds like a good excuse, anyways.

cave_canem January 9 2004, 17:12:08 UTC

Hey, it'll have to do. And if nobody can prove it didn't happen, I'm sticking by it. ;)

This challenge is going to ROCK.

An excellent suggestion, Katie :-D

Aw, Hufflepuff never wins.

I told my mom that, and she joined the community to write for "her house." :)

We did beat Slytherin though...we're not in last place...

I'll try and write this week, but we'll see.

You know, after the whole Harry Potter series ends, it would be awesome if JK did an adult fiction prequel about Grindewald.

ex_alongthe January 9 2004, 18:42:51 UTC

Yes! That would be so very interesting.

...I just wanted to make a suggestion here.

I understand why you stopped requiring people to put the title immediately above the drabble, but...some people put lots in one entry. And then don't have the titles near the drabbles. Which makes it confusing. Can you make people put the title above the drabble in multi-drabble entries? I doubt I'm the only one getting confused. Thanks!

Yeah, I have been noticing that too. I would feel bad taking away a rule and then putting it back in place. I'm working on a rewrite of the rules, though, trying to make them as concise and easy to understand as possible, and I will put that back in.

rosefyre January 11 2004, 17:47:47 UTC

Yeah, I get that you don't want to do that, but...I like to have the title there. Thanks!
