Narnia Big Bang and Mini Big Bang

[rthstewart]

So, it's up, it's live and the deadline is February 25 with minimum counts of 10,000 words (mini big bang) and 20,000 (big bang). They really need artists! And writers, too! So commit! Sign up!! Let's all play in the first ever  Narnia Big Bang!!!   Huge thanks to caramelsilver  and snacky and unsuitenedt for running the challenge!!



And, YEAH and HUZZAH, they are accepting a work in progress so long as it is finished. So, realistically, what's doable for me? 1) Finishing Harold and Morgan, definitely. 2) Bringing Apostolic Way to an interim conclusion -- Peter and Susan off to war and Lucy and Edmund in 1943, possible. 3) Peter and Susan in the War years, possible. Completing two of those three? ... hmmm, maybe. Finishing Apostolic Way as a complete story to 1949 and beyond? No way. And this is considering that AW, on its own, is already 90,000 words. Oh gawd, I should never look at word counts.

I've got a bad, bad, awful, terrible, horrible week ahead (really, really terrible) so selfishly I shall say that anything anyone does that is remotely entertaining shall be met with weeping tears of joy here. To that end, my Jina has been aiding me heroically.


This was right before she tried shoving the box in my ear.  When in doubt, add more beer.

Jina has the best ideas :DDD

*squishes* I hope the week won't end up as bad as you say hun!

Would you do Narnia BB? Yes?

[amine-eyes.livejournal.com]

I honestly don't know hun - it is in the period between semesters, but depends on how everything else is :)

Sounds tremendously exciting though :DDD

You have my sympathies. Last week was my disgustingly busy week from hell, but I survived it, so living proof of the light at the end of the tunnel, and all that...

Don't you just love a dog's idea of helpful? When in doubt, put a box into someone's ear.

It's funny how she knows what/where the good stuff is in the house. :-)

And though I don't think you'll be writing anymore about Liverpool and the Chinese, here's something that appeared on the BBC site today.

I'm not done with the Chinese part of the story so thank you!! I wish I had the courage to pick it up again! thanks so much! The dog was chewing on the beer box all evening. She's such a goof.

Such a good dog! HAVE MORE BEERS.

Lately mine has taken to whining and pawing at me until I remove myself to a piece of furniture where she can climb up and try to absorb me dermally so that we will NEVER BE AWAY FROM EACH OTHER EVER.

[rthstewart.livejournal.com]

Mummy, I must be NEAR you. INSIDE YOUR CLOTHING. I need MUMMY TIME. She's lying at my feet right now.

[anastigmatfic.livejournal.com]

This is because we are PACK and we must keep apprised of one another's moods by sharing heartbeat, respiration, smell, and shed hair.

[cofax7]

Oh, what a pretty girl she is. And smart!

[rthstewart.livejournal.com]

AND.... are you going to do the Narnia Big Bang since it's open?

[cofax7]

Err. I don't do assignments well, and my personal well is a bit dry at the moment. So, we'll see.

[linneasr.livejournal.com]

Oooo, a Narnia Big Bang! ... I don't think I'll be able to play, 'cause I have to produce 10,000 words of a dissertation by then, but I am going to love swimming around in the stars when it happens!

Oh Real Life is a pain sometimes.
