    It seems the flu has been really buggy this year! I hope you're feeling better now.

    It would have truly helped to have the title updated once in a while. :)

    Well it's official. VaderLVR64 won with "Some Measure of Joy". Congratulations, that was a great and unexpected response to that challenge. =D=

    Thanks go to those who wrote the stories and those who voted. :)

    Now, here is the next challenge:

    Write a story based on Climb Every Mountain from Sound of Music. It can be any genre and does not have to have any of the lyrics in it.

    What's the catch?

    You cannot use any of the characters that were mentioned about by any of the authors in the first challenge! Not really all that hard, there were only seven characters... Vader, Grivious, Ben/Obi-wan Kenobi, Beru, Owen, Padme and Luke.

    The deadline is April 7, 2008.

    EDIT: Because I forgot to include Obi-wan in the list of characters... funny, that I had said there were seven characters but listed six.

    Well, it only took as long as it did because I hadn't had a plot bunny-bite. Then I got one and it flowed out from there. :p

    I had to come up with mostly OC's after you included Ben/Obi-Wan but Qui-Gon was not mentioned so he is in this single post vignette. My entry is Caring for children

    There are four stories so far for this challenge, and just over a week until the deadline, April 7. This looks promising. :)

    I've updated the fifth message on the first page to include the list of stories in this challenge for easy referencing.

    Sorry about that! [face_blush] I've corrected the spelling of your name. It's funny, all this time, my brain has been putting in that second 'c' before the 'k'!

    lol. Probably because you are a writer, and technically speaking, chuckles is correct. :p

    And, thanks Jade. :)
