After much gnashing of teeth, we have finally unraveled the tangled ball of spider web Wolfie lobbed at us, before he ran away cackling like a loon.
So: deadline at 6pm GMT Wed,
Tag BOTH @VikingHorn and @RichWithey in the comments, and the new theme is:
Betrayed!
(You don't have to use the word itself, just write something that captures the essence of betrayal.)
Have fun all, wallowing in your past hurts and disappointments!
Your feedback helps VikingHorn understand what's working
Hi! I make beer, cook food, play bass, and occasionally write words
Thank you @glen for choosing my piece. I had fun writing it. So here is the scoop folks. @glen developed this fun challenge where you write sequels to the current judges Opusses. So have a go.
I've really enjoyed the themed writing challenges. How about one using certain words. The challenge is to write a small piece no more than two screen pages long using every one of the words.
Hello, opussians of the world, I won the last challenge so I get to choose the next word.
Wow. I honestly didn't expect to win the emotion challenge, and HUGE thanks to @leelee101 for picking me as the winner.
Thank you to @MrAlex for choosing me. Now the next word will be... Dragon All you have to do is include the word dragon in your piece.
Thank you @TaintedTulip for picking me as the winner of the previous #household challenge. I know how hard it must have been with all the great entries there were.
After being so kindly chosen by @smellyfingers, it's now down to me to choose the next word for the #description challenge. Please describe your favourite holiday destination.
Thank you to @patdolan83 for picking me. Truly unexpected. Ok the next phrase to use in your little piece is: Criss cross Closing date is tomorrow night at 8pm.
@RichWithey Maybe it's my bad. I should use the term you guys recognize. Greenwich Mean, then? Maybe I'll change it in the post. No point having a world standard for clarity, if it's confusing.
@wolfie Nah, I'm just gonna draw paper out of a hat. You're one to talk about judging, Mr Two Rounds In And I Still Can't Decide. ๐
@wolfie Oh, we both fully understand how tough it is. That's why we were stalling and tossing that grenade back and forth. These challenges are cool, and a good way to inspire interest, and nudge people out of ruts and blocks and all that ... But judging them is a bona fide public service, it keeps things going, but it's not easy! But nothing worthwhile is, right? ๐ป
@RichWithey I did get em, and while I liked all the ones on your list, there were some others I liked better that you had off, like HeatherAnne/The End of the Knife and Melchior/toxic Trust. I also liked that Rich Withey bloke's, as well. ;-). I will think about it as I walk my dogs.
