I'll still try.

But, like Sekot, I'll try to get it done.

In a twist of events, I completely forgot about the possibility of my folks having last-minute Chinese New Year visiting / 'utterly important traditional things' that clearly weren't important enough to inform me sometime beforehand. So the weekend I planned to use to finish up my story has now been utterly burned..I don't think I can make the deadline, sadly. I'll still try and wrap up the story I had anyway, if nothing else for completionism.

And an ending really wasn't something I was trying to work on with this anyway.

Had a very busy week and I didn't count on my sister randomly wanting to hang out for her birthday... so yeah, I find myself with half a story finished and the deadline approacheth. Oh well, can't say I didn't try. Next time for sure! Hopefully... I think...

"I'm pretty good at inventing phrases–you know, the sort of words that suddenly make you jump, almost as though you'd sat on a pin, they seem so new and exciting even though they're about something hypnopædically obvious. But that doesn't seem enough. It's not enough for the phrases to be good; what you make with them ought to be good too... Words can be like X-rays, if you use them properly–they'll go through anything. You read and you're pierced."

I'm going to push the deadline out one day, because I really want to open the new Challenge with a good round. And it looks like there's at least three people with something written who -might- benefit from an extra day.

Silver, Sekot and Injin. If you want to take advantage of the extra day and edit or write more then feel free to edit your pieces within the new deadline of:

11:59PM EST, 24/02/2013.

Whelp, it's probably nothing too fantastic but it's up there. I'm just happy I got the urge to write some kind of Dark Tower fan fic out of my system.

EDIT: Damn, I fucked up continuity wise. Forgot that John's mask was red to begin with and it didn't have the Eye on it.

Oh well.
