The Reading Room - A look back at our beginnings

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

A Single Blue Tongue of Flame by carabele was the first story posted for our initial event, the Groundhog Day Challenge.  For the next few weeks the Reading Room will be taking a look back at the stories that opened up our comm and defined who we are within the MFU sites here on LJ.  We're about writing, and offering a steady calendar of opportunities for those who want to write and those who enjoy reading the results.  We've grown and learned from the process and each other.  I think that's a really good thing.

Great idea!

[chuckle] And to think, the longer story that was an aftertake on -- THE STICKING IN MUD AFFAIR -- still isn't finished one year later, and won't be for a good while yet since I'm now working on my story for the first QUOTEME challenge.

But STICKING IN MUD will indeed be finished... someday... I swear it! It just has such a complicated setup, that it's difficult to get it all across exactly how I want it.

Of course, the story for the first QUOTEME challenge I'm working on currently isn't much less complicated of a setup. But that one has a fixed deadline, so forces me think everything through more quickly. [wink]

Slow writer incorporated, that's me! [laugh]
