Top 32. Not too shabby for a story that was an actual double bird to the prompts. 😆

The judges might not have loved my unnamed female MC (sorry, not sorry at all Amanda… it really wasn’t relevant) and her side pieces Suzie and Betty, I sure did - and that is all that matters. 🤘🏻@notquitewrite

How do you know when you’re kinda done with writing comps? Or is there a planet in retrograde somewhere…? Asking for a friend…

32 and out. 🫡 #SolsticeOwl A good example of how subjective this whole writing thing is. Went out to story in my own house that was lower in house rankings. It’s clear when you break it all down that 3 of the judges for that round preferred certain aspects to others. Interesting stuff.

Another fizzer to usher in a new month. How lively. No traction with Elegant Literature this month. I guess my writing isn’t neither elegant nor literary enough. (side eye).

Well that was unexpected… 5th in Round 3 (apparently I have no idea what a good story is, because I thought this was boring…) and 28th overall in Twisted Tournament. @twistinthetale.bsky.social

I blame @quitewriteed.bsky.social and @akscotland.bsky.social of @notquitewrite.com flesh fiction infamy for the fact that my latest WB effort has erotic undertones that I don’t realise I’d written in… 😳

WB results. Smack in the middle with crap marks for pacing (oofffff, really? Ouch!) and creativity… (fair, fair. I’ll cop that.) Off to move about my day and will come back later to do the autopsy. Peace. @writingbattle.bsky.social

Shaking my head right now. I know it’s vague, but I have to let it out somehow. 🤨😑🖕🏻 At least I keep getting lots of good material to base emotionally driven stories off? #silverlining?

After much stalling, brain tumble weeds and a genre re-roll that landed me in the genre I didn’t want (steampunk, ugh) I am happy to say that I finally have traction on a story and so far I’m pleased with what’s going on. Only 1900 words to go. Will I make it? #writingbattle

Summing up how I am feeling about my TT efforts with a line from the immortal Lina Lamont ‘Gee, this is dumb.’ At least we’re having fun not over investing in time, effort and expectation.

Well, it was written in 4 hrs with a few glasses of Pinot noir on board… can’t attest to the quality of the story, but TT R1 has been submitted.

‘Two-Fold Wounds,’ my 1000 word Bio Punk story from the Tempest Owl round of Writing Battle is getting published. The judges may not have liked it, but I’m glad others will get a chance to read it. I put too much work into it to have it come to nothing.
