@InfraGreen Sorry about that. A perfect example of why I ask for double checks. :) See I was too caught up in all the "Thank you"s. So thank you for letting me know. I hope it's all sorted now.
You guys!!!!! You are all so amazing! I stopped commenting individually on the thank you posts a little ways into because I was rushing off to see the next one. Now that I've gotten all caught up in the thread I'll be heading back to take a closer look at them all. I also haven't linked them on the front page yet, but I…
Oh I am so glad to see people have volunteered to take over. I like the idea of shared responsibilities for the new thread, but there are some things to discuss. I'll PM the three volunteers. Thank you all for the support!
Okay guys and gals, this probably sounds abrupt to y'all, but it's something I've been thinking about for a while now. I've been organizing these short story challenges for over a year. It is something that I really enjoy. I love seeing all the creativity each month. Plus I do love our little community here. But I have…

I'm pretty sure we've had other people use previously written stories as the basis for their entries before. If I remember correctly we decided that anything that had already been published on your blog (or similarly) was off limits. But it sounds like you're already planning to rework your story @totalRainbow so…

Hey guys. I don't have time tonight to wrap up this month's challenge, but i promise I haven't forgotten again. I'll update the entry list right now before heading to bed, and I'll post the new theme and the poll in the morning.
Okay guys. I've updated/fixed the front page. If you've submitted already this month do me a favor and check that your story is listed. Whenever I'm away from the forums for more than a day or two I like to double check that I didn't miss anyone. :) Hope everyone is having a great day!

Hey guys! First let me assure you that everything is okay. Thank you for thinking of me :) I have been super busy with family stuff. It was my step-dad's father who passed away in August.

I think I have the entry list up to date now. Think I'll wait until the AM to open the poll to vote. So basically we're just one day behind schedule, I think I can live with that. I'll post the new theme in a few minutes for everyone.
Oh my goodness everyone! I'm so incredibly sorry. I completely let the end/beginning of the month slip by me. I haven't caught up on a single post from the thread yet, but I wanted to let you all know I haven't completely vanished. I'm sure a lot of you are wondering what's going on. So again for everyone who has entered…
