Short stories again

By exweedfarmer · Jun 15, 2019 · 474 · 1
  1. I lost again this month, which is bad. But, I didn't finish dead last, which is good. I'm going to try something new. I'm going to write a story and THEN look at the prompt. That seems to be working for the rest of everybody. It rather P***** me off that these non-prompt dependent stories are even getting into the contest. But, that's just me.

    I keep trying to hold back from responding, but since you post this I presume you are willing to consider responses. I'm not trying or going to get into an argument here, but here's what I think, FWIW.

    Seems to me that the rules generally say something about incorporating the prompt as the writer sees fit, and about taking that issue into response in voting. They don't say "make sure the prompt is incorporated to Exweedfarmer's satisfaction." I suggest, in all seriousness and not trying to be snarky, that you should focus more on the quality of your own writing and the way you choose to incorporate the prompt, and less on how others do (except of course in your voting).

    That said, I do understand your frustration and I do look forward to your next entries.
