Is this going to be a new one where people who haven't registered games can post? I'd say go for it!

Is the Writer's Lounge only for the ones with the games? If so, go for it! I will be there.

Yep, I think so

I am le confused. There's Writer's Lounge but it's already ongoing with prompts. So, no new fresh-start.

I don't want to create a sence of competition or something the likes. If there is already a thread I thought we should use it. If however not everyone can post there it would be better to open a new one. Since I am allowed to post there I don't know if others are not allowed.

That was my way of thinking, I don't know if everybody agrees.

I don't think that's allowed. And seeing as noone really comes here anymore, I don't know. ^^°

The Writer's Lounge is a pretty casual thread. We hang out, talk about writing, encourage each other, and occasionally have prompts. It's mainly to talk about the craft of writing, to vent and kvetch, and in general discuss topics relevant to either FF writing or non-FF writing. For instance, the discussion ATM is concerning Gaider's blog about do's and don't's. I highly encourage ya'll to come over!

Unfortunately, for those who don't have the game, I'm unsure where a completely unrestricted playground is...

Oh, I totally love your dwarf! But I will try my luck in the Writer'S Lounge. It's what I had in my mind when I thought about creating a Writer's Corner. I guess it will be difficult to get in as the new girl, but it might work.

Aww, thanks! I love my dwarf too. :) Please come on over! We'd love to see an influx of new people to talk about writing with there! People come and go in the thread all the time, based on RL and stuff (although the holidays, Skyrim and SWTOR have definitely taken their toll, heh)

The entry list has been updated. We now have 15 of the 20 cut, including the winner!

Lots of shy people though, it seems. Not even 100 entries put up. :)

I finally put mine up on my website the other day. I like a lot of what I'm reading! You can go ahead and add mine to any lists (unless I'm so late to the game there's a different way you wanted it submitted?)

SoLD has a template for her thread that includes the title, link, author, and synopsis. Other than that template, though, there aren't any "rules" for submitting it for the rest of us to read, though.

That's awful ... :( *pat pat*

You can still submit it to SoLD's thread! It's a shallow consolation, but even if the DA writers won't be able to consider ur work, the rest of the community can still read and appreciate it!

SoLD- Kindly post this in your Entries thread since I don't have a copy of DragonAge. (Never even played the game before. ;) Thank goodness for Gaider's book,  the wiki, and YouTube gameplay videos to grant some pretty good insight into the world)

Story: Lackluster Author: Mpskydog
Constructive Criticism Requested: Yes
Synopsis:  It isn’t every day a committed, but talentless and lackluster mage has a chance to do something heroic. But can he even manage to do it right?
Link: http://www.fanfictio...807931/1/Normal

(Anyone else notice that FanFiction.net counts words differently than Microsoft word? I had 2500 including my chapter/section numbers in Word... FanFic reports over 2700? *shrugs*)

Did you add an a/n on ff.net? That's where my files normally end up with different word counts from.

I'd also like to put in a quick word of thanks to SandTigress for maintaining a Community on FF.net of the Asunder entries that have been posted there as well. 

The Community is called: Asunder Creative Writing Competition.  It is the stories that have been posted on FF.net.

And, if you aren't using FF.net to host your story, please, please post a link here or in the DA2 thread by SoLD!  There were over 400+ stories submitted to Bioware, and they haven't all been listed for public consumption yet! ;)

There Goes the Neighborhood
Author: diablosflame
Synopsis: I hear footsteps behind me and I turn, instinctively reaching for the sword belted at my side. He holds his hands up wearing the vestments of the town guard, inept swine herders. No doubt he had never seen anything like this before. "Real mess in here, eh?" I hadn't noticed. "Yes, blood magic. There appear to be no identifying marks on the body." “Yes, sir. Thought that was a bit odd myself. Yet not odd enough to mention it in the report? “Do we know who it is?” “No sir, we haven't a clue. We're going through records now to see who occupied this building last.” By that time, this bastard could strike again. Hell, by that time we could have another blight. “I don't suppose anyone saw anything suspicious.” "Actually the next door neighbor claims to have seen someone enter and leave the building earlier this morning. She said she wanted to speak to a Templar." Why? "She wanted to speak to a Templar specifically?" Perhaps she recognized a Mage. "Yes, the house on the right. She should be there, I just spoke to her." A long shot, but it's possible she knows something. "I'll head over there now. Hopefully your people can manage to identify the body before I go senile." I leave him stewing as I walk out the door.

diablos_flame, I had to cut down the size of your synopsis. Reason the the word limit is actually due to a character limit within forum posts (which I learned the hard way from my DA:O fanfic thread XD)

Thread updated :)

I found the exact same thing - my story was 2499 and it's coming up over 2700 on ff.net.
I do have an a/n but it's only about 50 words long, it couldn't account for all of those extra 200+ words.
