May still write a story with the prompt, even if it'll be super belated all things considered.

That seems to have been a problem with the last workshop, too. Instead of giving us a broad spectrum to work in, it feels like the workshop topics lately are a rail line we must follow a specific route on. Also, the so-called prize is not of interest to a guy with no girlfriend to wear it.
I dont have a gf to wear the suit either. But it is a very generous and very suitable prize, i thought.
As for the theme...if its any consolation I have already decided if I win this one I dont want to pick the next one.

I really meant to actually write something, but work/life/etc got in the way and I never made it a priority. Kept thinking "I should sit down and plot something out".
Late Sunday night I went, "I wonder what the due date for the story ... oh, shit. " So, great topic, I was just too un-focused to get it done, or to actually start.
I think I'm going to have to set aside some time every week to do some writing, because I enjoy it, but it doesn't seem to be something that I can just rely upon myself to just do without some kind of structure in place.

softball tournaments on top of that so I gave up but I have been thinking about a story I started a year ago, so maybe I will get back to work on that.

I know I went down pretty hard on you in the past, but I think that in this case you should really get someone to clean it up.

I believe Castor is saying less people would have forgotten if there was a constant reminder on the front page.
