Are you sick and tired of bein' lied to?
Getting kinda bored of being ignored?
Can't find the tribe that you belong to?
Oh, my friend, you are not alone!

>>GroaningGreyAgony As am I. Inept, incoherent, incompetent, all kinds of in. But at least I'm not all alone in the Monty Python way.

Ah, good, it looks like there are several entries. It turns out writing is fun after all.
Wait, does the timeline mean that writing is over? There was just one day for writing? WTF?
Roger, please change this. It's insulting to writers to allow 1 day to write a story and 5 days to draw a picture.

Yes, minifics have always been only 24-hour writing, even back then.
Frankly, it could be extended to the whole weekend, but I don’t think stretching it thinner would help. One risk is that people stall on the idea stage, and later during the week find no time, or no energy, to go ahead and write it. For 750 words, the deadline must remain short, provided that we all know the entries are rough and need afterwork to be publishable.
I think you could set up your own rounds with your own timeline, I think. Roger can do that, if I’m not mistaken

For me, one of the values of it is that it is an opportunity to make writing work with life. Unless one is a professional writer, energy has to be divided between this vocation and other obligations. Two to three pages in a day is a manageable challenge. Feedback is a bonus. And if you're used to working on long projects, it can be beneficial to have the whole process right in front of you in a distilled timeframe.

I figured that drawing got more time because folks gotta read the stories first.

Voting was pretty hard on the stories this round. There wasn't a significant difference from top to bottom on how much I liked them. If I came back a different day, I may well have voted them in a different order.

I found that, on the contrary, they stood pretty much apart one from the other. :p
