Week 1 Wrap-Up

Hey everyone! Winter here. I just polished up my story this morning for Trisha's prompt - the truth behind the smile. I'm excited to post, and even more excited to see what you guys have come up with. =]

Thanks for a great first week! It was great fun reading all of your responses to my prompt. I hope your New Year is going great and those creative juices are continuing to flow.

Remember - if you'd like us to post your story on Saturday or Sunday, you can email it to us at chrysalisexperiment@gmail.com, or just post it on your blog and let us know. Remember to write us a disclaimer if it's graphically sexual or violent.

And to anyone who's new to the page - remember, you can join the experiment at any time, if you'd like. Just drop us an email.

Oh, and I just wanted to let everyone know - there's no pressure to use the actual prompt in your story. If it fits in, that's great, but you don't specifically have to say the phrase, "the truth behind the smile" or "I hate polite people. Especially when they're murderers." Just jumping off/inspiration points, really. :D

That's it for now. See you tomorrow, Experimenters!

  2. Awesome, cheers Rae :D

    Week 1 was indeed awesome. I read about creepy circuses, cannibals, PTSD sufferers, former ladies of the night, exasperating superheroes, freaky murderers, and I believe that was it? Hehe.

    Looking forward to reading week 2's efforts. I know we have a story from Raeyn and Michael so far. Yay! :D

  3. I really, really, REALLY wanted to participate these first two weeks, but (guess what) life got in the way... I'm especially disappointed because the first prompt was right up my alley.
    Never mind, I'm enjoying the posts here and will take part soon!

    With all these amazing prompts generating all these short stories, starting a blog was just way too tempting. :3

Word verification is ON because this blog is closed and I hate spam, which I was getting some of. SORRY :( I do hate those captcha things with a deadly vehemence.
