The Results Are In!

Well, for my first challenge, I’m pretty impressed at the turnout: 20! And such quality too! You people didn’t make judging easy, for sure.
Because there was such a wide range of genres, I’ll judge in a few different categories:

Beatles: Elenor Rigby by Watween
I’m a sucker for the Beatles, what can I say?

Comedy: Exotic Creature Inspiration by THX
Probably the lightest of all of them.

Heartstring-Tuggers: Sweet Child of Mine by Jenunique, Untouchable, Invincible… Invisible by NightMaiden, & Ma Meeshka Mow Skwoz by John Perkins

Best Revenge Tactics: After the Before He Cheats by Bluesparrow & Invisible by ALRO613
Revenge isn’t the answer, but it’s sure feels good!

Specific Wow-Initiators: Someone to Sweep the Floors by Eckhouse & Everything Else is Just a Trainwreck by [pens&feathers]

These are just some of the few rockin’ awesome entries I got. Thanks to all y’all who entered & made my frist challenge so successful! It couldn’t have happened without yous!

Thank you for the recognition. And thank you for issuing the challenge. ;) (BTW, I am always late in my thanks because it takes someone telling me congratulations for something I have forgotten I entered… I’m just a doofus like that.)

¿Y que vela cargas tu en este entierro?

Off-Fic-Broadway Series

I am extremely honored to be accepted into the legendary League of Awesomeness. In formal occasions I’ll be known as La Pianista Irlandesa: Music Librarian of Randomness.

Ah-ha! MP Challenge! (http://ficlets.com/stories/42742)
Up until Oct. 5th!
Good luck, force be with you, godspeed, feliz navidad, yatta yatta yatta

My life, in the words of Roy Blount Jr.:
“Maybe you had to be there.”

Other than that: I write, read, hablo espanol (speak spanish), listen to NPR, hang with my buds, sing (soprano 1) and let my imagination run wild.

You like my stuff? Or hate my stuff? Leave a comment, let me know! (if you’re in the “hate” catagory, you better give me good rock-solid reasons)
Like a thread or a standalone, and you think it could be longer, sequel! Unless you’re really hesitant and you feel you need my approval, note me. But if not, just go, man, go!

Want to start a series? Send me a note with a link to the beginning. (As someone who’s got a lot of stuff to juggle, I can’t say I can accept all offers. But it never hurts to ask! I love collaboration.)

I may diss-cah-peer for the month of April for Script Frenzy 2009 Interested? Check out www.scriptfrenzy.org.
