If the ersatz challenge is still open, I'll write a fic for it.

If not, that's fine.

Ersatz means make-up, sort of. So the challenge that's taking the place of another challenge? *shrugs*

We are referring to IEJ's, right? By the way, I already posted a response to that on the previous page.

That's the one I meant, I just wasn't sure if it was our 'real' GWG challenge. *shrugs*

I think it's official now, since SkalenFehl has posted the deadline dates for it. IEJ reposted the specifics of the challenge too, on the last page.

It's a fake challenge the girls and I were trying to slip by you all tongue

It's the real one this month because it was ladies choice.


For those who missed it on the last page

It can be ANY scene between ESB and ROTJ, but base it off the movies NOT the books that cover this time period. Pretend these books don't exist, I want to see what YOU think should have happened. Must be between 1,000 - 2,500 words. You must convince us that this would be a scene we would have watched if ESB or ROTJ were longer or if GL had done a movie covering the time between the movies. For example -

Ever wonder how Luke became more powerful between movies or why he became so serious? At what point did Leia relieve her self from duty in order to leave for Tatooine to prepare for Han's rescue? How did Lando infiltrate Jabba's Palace in the first place? Did the rebellion have any other encounters with the Empire during this time? Let your imagination go crazy, if you want to write the conversation Luke and Leia have minutes after saying good bye to Lando and Chewie I'm all for it. How did Luke and Leia trick 3PO into going with R2 to Jabba's Palace - something I think could be interesting? As long as it happens after the credits roll in ESB and before we see 3PO and R2 shuffling along the road to Jabba's Palace.

There I THINK that should answer everything.

Classes... They're rough, but doable. So far English is my favorite just because I really enjoy analyzing things now. I hate trying to figure out what literary tools were used though. But as far as pyschology goes and finding the deeper meaning, it's all good. That, and it's hard to mess up. grin

Science is gonna kick my butt, but I have some good friends who are willing to help me out. happy

Math is... Math.

Nursing. worried

And what it all comes down to is that I haven't got it figured out just yet.
Would I rather be feared or loved? Um... Easy, both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me.

Yes, I did read that outstanding, albeit one post viggie. That story was too awesome. Hey! Did you ever read my story, Of Death and Hell? Your viggie actually takes place during my viggie. That's cool. grin
