Over at the Leaky Pencil blog, host Chris Allinotte kicked of his 9 DAYS OF MADNESS special on March 18th. It's a 9 day event, with a new story by a diferent author being featured each day. The theme had to be "Unsettling" and the word count max was 1,500.
Because of my father's ongoing heath issues, work, famil and lacrosse commitments, the only story I have read so far is by one of my favorite short story authors, who also seems to be a very cool person....R.S BOHN
I will certainly be reading the stories that have already appeared and the one's coming next
Thank you so much, Sean. And yes, I do hope you get to read the rest. This year's writers in the 9 DOM really brought the good stuff.
ReplyDeleteR.S. Def going to make the time to read all of them. Life and all that goes along with it, are really fucking up my program lately ;)
DeleteThanks for the reminder, Sean. I had actually wanted to see if I could submit something to this one as I had the germ of an idea, but I ran out of time. I will be very curious what everyone did with this theme.
ReplyDeleteSean- Yeah, I was all gung ho to enter, but too much going on, and I have to have an idea or inspiration to get it done. Not much of that lately, unfortunately.
DeleteYou'll get back to it. And yes, I have been having a hard time carving out time for the reading lately too, but I will read these stories.
ReplyDeleteDid you see that Jack Bates has a new flash jab challenge up? 750 words. Maybe we can both squeeze it in...
Seana- Thanks for the hot tip on Jack Bates, just what I needed!
