End of 2014 workshop - Discussion was created by fats
Hi all,

Thanks to argonaut for reminding me that i have forgotten to post this.

Please use this thread to discuss any matters relating to the end of 2014 workshop.

I'll start, does anyone have a better name for the workshop?

Several of the contest entries had already started me thinking about possible story lines.

When I told my wife about the story workshop and asked if she had any recommendations, she glanced down the column of images, pointed to one of them, and said "Her."

It sounded more like an order than a suggestion, but the character she chose had been on my short list, so that's the one I'll be writing about.

I'm not sure I'll write one yet (nothing is demanding it be written). But I'm going to sit and ponder and see if something strikes me.

But I have a question: Can it be based only off the image -- or does it need to include the information in the blurb text?

I think it's image only, but you'll have t hear from LFan or Fats to be sure.

It's up to you how you want to do it, the image is what was voted on so that's the primary thing that you are working off.

But if you want to use the blurb you can use that as well.

I'm in agreement with Fats and Woodclaw. The story has to relate to the concept of the picture (i.e. non-super person having superpowers) but doesn't need to tie-in to the text blurb

I'm going to try one of these. I honestly don't know which one, but I'll be damned if I'm not going to try.

I'm going to try to try. I know which image(s) I want to do. Hopefully I'll be able to take enough time out of my busy drinking schedule to write. On the other hand, as a friend of mine says : write drunk, edit sober.

The deadline's a month away. Who's in?

I'm hoping my story will be ready by February 1. If I can't quite finish it, I can at least submit the first section as an "origin story."

Thanks for bumping this up, I wasn't even aware there was a workshop going on. Fats, the link to the images in the workshop thread is broken, BTW. Gonna try to submit something if any of the images inspires me to do so

My New Years resolution was trying to write more so I should be in, barring an unforeseen circumstance

I've got an idea, but I don't have even a single line written, if I can make it good, otherwise I'll submit the story on its own.

The link that's on the front page blog/announcements doesn't show anything. It also logged me out after I clicked it, but that might be a coincidence.

It didn't log me out, but it sent me to a blank page.

I'm hoping I can add one more scene before the deadline, but I'll definitely be sending something in.

Where can I find the entries for the artwork contest?
