    Damn, just saw this now. I`d like to enter another VOAT. Not sure if I`ll get the time. We`ll see though.

    How's everyone getting on with this? I started mine last week but I've been in a terrible funk since. I can't concentrate and want to spend all my spare time outside of work sleeping. I'm still hoping I can finish though.

    I wrote a 12-page script sample the other day, so I've been writing. Just not VOAT writing. I'll start soon. I promise... kinda. Maybe. I don't promise.

    Oh God! The VOAT story!

    *checks closing date*

    Oh thank goodness, I can forget about it for a couple more days.

    I have cellulitis on my face. One of my eyes was virtually swollen closed yesterday, though it's way better today. That said, my face is still lopsided. And I'm trying all I can not to scratch the rest of my face which currently has the texture of sandpaper. There, my excuse for not starting yet.

    It's a good one, right? Well, only if I write with my face. Which I do... not. Man, I have got to stop procrastinating.

    Apparently, you remember things better if you write them in blue rather than black ink. Yup, random fact for the day.

    My half ar5ed, poorly written effort will never see the light of day, sadly, as I wont get a chance to finish it. Probably just as well.

    This has been a very hard VOAT. (For me anyway, if you had a good idea I am sure it wasn't too bad) But It has been enjoyable.

    Silly question but did you know that VOAT is said to be the correct spelling for the word Vote?

    One of the useless facts I dragged out from the depths of my computer while i was scratching around for ideas.

    How many stories will actually beat the deadline?

    Seeing as someone else has finished I'm going to do my best to get mine done.

    Pray for Mojo.

    I'm a bit special
    That should have said: "I thought the deadline was today, not tomorrow."

    Dang, I thought for a moment I had an idea.:o I might just jot down 2,000 words about something. Reading them may be like chewing chunks of glass but I may edit it a little tomorrow and it might be, somewhat, passable.

    It's not happening, folks.

    I feel like I'm trying to type in a foreign language here. It's a pity because I have the skeleton mapped out for it.

    Anyway. More sleepies for me now.
