Gathering of the Figments

I like them all, in order of how they're written. Number one the least, number two the second best, and number three the best. We should do this as a contest. CAN WE FIGGY PLEASE?!

Maybe she means "legends in the form of stories". Very Happy

I is smart. And what do you mean, Pommie, it'd be hard 'cause it's already decided? :/

Well there's no point having a competition on the matter when it is already pretty clear that everyone (including jewls) prefers option number 3... It'd be a foregone conclusion.

No, I mean we ALL write one for our own stories. It'd be fun. Kinda. Very Happy

But... Aren't we all kinda doing that anyways?

And it would be a bit hard to judge... Unless everyone posts the works, and we wait till they have before judging... So that we could tell how accurate their blurb was... And there would be blurbs for all different types...

How would we judge it, in your mind Hawky? (That wasn't meant to sound narky... I am tired and cannot formulate sentences good...)

Uh...you and Pommie would pick the one that sounds coolest and would be the one that you pick in the bookstore over all the other ones. Very Happy

THAT WAS COOL. Very Happy

You ripped an entire chunk off of a board and put it here.

That'd be fun. We could even give a title to the winner: "Most likely to sell the most books" Laughing

You know, stories that aren't fantasy...things like Pictures of Hollis Woods or A Tree Grows in Brooklyn...things like that, that could ACTUALLY happen...I can't do that.
