Mike Wallace Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 I'm putting this up as a discussion thread for the Storied Soundtracks contest (found here). Converse amongst yourselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomezilla Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Eek! Long-form fiction, my bane! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masquer Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 I think the go-to theme for this would be Outcasts. Tattooed Irishman's proclaimation of life and love, signed in blood upon his skin. I just had a wonderful idea, the subversive that I am. Go Team Neverborn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason13 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 I gotta give a big shout out of thanks to Wyrd for this storied event. I just broke my collar bone last night -right side, and I am right handed which means I can neither assemble nor paint my miniatures and I was feeling very sorry for myself (particularly since this means I'll likely miss out on the Iron Painter) till I read the February Newsletter. Wyrd, not only have you provided much needed reading materials to distract myself from the pain -the February chronicles, but you've given me a project I CAN work on, as I can still type left handed. Zorida definitely pulled strings on this one! P.S - I love that song you picked! Never heard it before. It's been added to my play list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haunter Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 Think I might throw my hat in the ring for this. We'll see if I can come up with anything worthy of submitting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason13 Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 Finally finished! Oh man that was tough. Typing one handed sucks big time. That's gotta be the longest piece I've written in ... since I can remember. I gotta say, reading threw everybody's stuff, this was a great contest! Awesome stories everyone so far! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomezilla Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 Definitely improved the contest over last year's by giving us all a prompt. The stories are part of a cohesive whole in style, all better fit within the Malifaux setting, and they compete against one another more than the motley mix of last year--the authors' individual styles count for more this year. We were lucky to get the full spread of factions (and one Other Side allegiance) within these constraints. Again, I say, eek! long-form fiction! I struggled to hit 5000 words exactly. Also, remind me never again to rewrite the entire thing three days before it's due, even if it's much improved by the rewrite. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
