    The index has been updated once more. :D

    I was wondering, how many of you are planning to incorporate the mini-challenges into your diaries? Do you like the mini's to be one word with no real explanation and plenty of room for interpretation, or would you like something more specific?

    Not planning on it, and never have, since my stories are already planned out and usually can't fit them in. For me, it's enough to just get through the big challenge 8-}

    Well, I've already incorporated this first challenge into the next chapter, but if I can't find a way for the mini challenge doesn't fit my story, I won't use it. Sith Lord's make all sorts of resolutions... [face_devil]

    Here is my entry: [link=http://boards.theforce.net/the_saga/b10476/29658628/p1/]Changes[/link]. It is not an official Challenge entry, as I'm the indexer, so it won't be eligible for voting at the end of the year.

    I think the one words are interesting, but I'll only be able to use some of them I'm sure - and 8 year old doesn't make 'resolutions' after all, and though she'll grow up over the year, we'll have to see what happens!

    Here is my entry: [link=http://boards.theforce.net/beyond_the_saga/b10477/29659538]Wilson or The Diary of an Astromech Droid[/link].

    I must admit I was inspired by the line in the first post about doing a droid's diary. Well, here it is! :D I've never tried this Diary thing before. Quite challenging.

    Since I plan to have only two updates a month, I am not sure if I can get any of the mini-challenges incorporated. But this is the first time I start out with something kinda planned already, so I don't have much leeway.[face_thinking]

    I'm not sure if I will use the mini's or not. I'm trying to stay at least a month ahead so if DRL decides to rear its ugly head I'll be okay. But if I get stuck or behind I'll definitly use some of them.

    I enjoy both specific and one word prompts. One word prompts are fun to see how different people interpret them, but more specific ones give more of a challenge. I guess it just depends on what mood I'm in.


    Edit: Oh, how I wish I could spell! 8-}

    I really didn't want to commit myself to more than one diary, but when we were told we could do non-SW a bunny bit. I tried to beat the bunny back, I really did, but when I started having dreams about it I knew there was no stopping it. :(

    However, my SW diary will take precedence.

    So the other NSW Diary isn't alone, I give you [link=http://boards.theforce.net/non_star_wars_fan_fiction/b10808/29665749/p1/]Jones, Ianto Jones[/link] - a Torchwood diary written by, as if it weren't obvious, Ianto Jones.

    Cheesey title, I know. ;)

    I have updated the index again, and am delighted that it keeps growing. [face_dancing] I just pray none of the diaries will have an untimely death... though that would be quite a reading load when it comes to voting for your favorite at the end of the year! [face_laugh]

    BTW, when update your diaries and PM the sock, remember to include a link!

    I started yet another diary, this time in the NSWFF. It's a Pokemon story with an OC I made up named Jon Wheeler. [link=http://boards.theforce.net/non_star_wars_fan_fiction/b10808/29668011/p1/]As the Road Takes Me[/link]

    I'll update the index when i get home from work tonight, or tomorrow before I go to the gym (a fitness gym for humans, not a battle gym for pokemon :p )
