Is it time for us to choose the next theme?

@CathyTea Last thing I knew @Carewren123 had a list from when we brainstormed the first time and was just going to go from that and announce the next one at the start of the month.

Yeah I think I've decided which one I'm going to use for next month. For some months we can still decide together, but sometimes I want to surprise everyone. You can always send me any ideas for themes; that goes for everyone.

Lovely, Carewren123! I'm glad you'll be surprising us!

Indeed.

Carewren123

Also I'd like to ask everyone that has submitted a story for this month to check and make sure your story was added to the list on the first page of the thread. I'll use that list when I make the voting poll, so I want to double check that I didn't leave anyone off.

And as a reminder you have only the rest of today and tomorrow left to get your August submission in, if you are still planning to do so.

Well duh we are twins seriously though, I only have so much spare time this month and a whole lotta pent up stress energy - I need to write something with guidelines and limitations to focus myself I bet tomorrow is gonna go so slowly

i like that idea. but i forgot to write a story. august went faster than i thought.

Carewren123

Okay guys, you have about 12 hours left to submit a story this month if you are still wanting to do so.

For those of you who have already submitted, can you double check the list below. Let me know if I somehow left someone off or if you see any typos. (This list is copied from the poll I'm putting together right now; as you can see the order of the stories have been randomized for the poll)

Looks great to me.

putacece4lyfe

Everything looks great over here. Or shall I say Awesome? (I had to at least do it once)

Penguinwa101

YAY! Looks good to me!!!! can't wait!!!

Pegasus143

Let's see... Yep, it's good!

Carewren123

okay, I just finished reading all the entries, and there really were some amazing stories. You are all so talented. It's going to be so hard for us all to pick who we want to win. The poll will go up in a little under an hour and a half.

CitizenErased14

Ahhhh this is going to be WAY too difficult! All the stories are so good! I finally managed to get it narrowed down to 6 favorites... Which doesn't sound like really narrowing down at all, does it? I genuinely don't know which one I'll choose!

Yeah, it's just easier for me to use my own time. I actually live just over the Alabama line now though, so I'm actually going by Central Time.
