    NanoWrimo, VOAT, Lame Protagonist needing a crutch... are you growing a beard as well this month?

    I think we have 8 so far and the Box is a nice idea IMO. I'll see if Friday is not too busy to kick this off.

    The first and third may be related, and lets just say readers of my NaNo shouldn't be surprised to see a mysterious box appear in my plot ;)

    This will be a long one, not a flash-fiction.

    That works. Are we going with the box description as above so?

    Hmmm.. I may be in! Or, I can do the accepting entries thing again if you'd like to enter, pickarooney? This sort of thing will hopefully give me the kick I need to get writing again - I've been woefully short on time and ideas. >_<

    Grand so, if nobody has any objections, or a last-minute brainwave, I'll start a thread on this around midday.

    The competition is now open. See here for details. I'll lock this thread later so as to keep any further discussion in that thread.

    Its traditional to start writing 1-2 hours before the deadline.

    If by 'writing' you mean 'stop drinking' and by '1-2 hours' you mean '10-15 minutes', sure.
