    Both of yours stories have been added to the newly created "Entries" list. :3

    Bam, once your story is finished, post here again so I can add you to the list. Also, I would recommend you posting the actual story rather than a file; there might be people who cannot download the file, which can lead to problems when voting starts.

    If anybody else has finished entries, post them here so I can add them. :)

    Your story is also added. :3

    For those who haven't finished their story, you have two days more (well, like an hour and a half for it to become two more days). Since there aren't many finished entries, I'll extend the deadline if there are people out there who really wish to enter a story.

    I'd like the deadline extended, mines not done. But I'm soooo close.

    Heya,

    I wasn't aware we needed to post our stories here as well as NWC in the title, so I'd like to just register my story: Deep Mud

    I hope you enjoy :)

    Re: The Newbie Writing Competition '10!

    Okay, I'll extend the deadline. I'll decide exactly by how much when I see if you two are the only ones who need an extension.

    Yeah. I have people post to see how many finished entries. The (NWC) is to see how many people plan to enter, and if I see that there are more NWC stories posted than entered in this thread, it means a deadline might be needed.

    That aside, your story is added. :3

    Re: The Newbie Writing Competition '10!

    I might try to pull something out of my butt really fast, because I've never actually finished a story and thus am eligible to enter, but A) I really should be doing homework/tending to all the National Park stuff that's piling up, and B) I don't know how fair it would be for me to enter.

    I would love it if you could extend the deadline. I'm still working on my entry, but it should hopefully be done soon.

    Re: The Newbie Writing Competition '10!

    If the deadline's extended, I might be able to enter. All depends on the severity of homework during the next week or so. v.v

    I could use a deadline extension. My story's almost done, but it needs a nice layer of polish before I send it out. I'm rushing right now :-(

    Deadline extension would be cool, but I am on track I think to finish tonight. ATM it is 8:52pm in the UK and I should be finished by midnight (although hopefully will not need to stay up that late!).

    Extension would be good. I can probably have it up tomorrow itself, but not sure if that's within the deadline.

    Your story is added. :3

    Okay, seeing as a good number of people are asking for an extension, I'll extend the deadline to Sunday, May 9th! I'm giving you guys the weekend plus these days, so I expect your stories be finished. Remember, more entries equals better prizes! :D Also, for those whose stories are complete, you can take this time to edit as you please.

    Re: The Newbie Writing Competition '10!

    Are you allowed to submit stories on Sunday, or is Saturday the last day to submit?

    Also, what time zone are you using for the midnight cutoff? I don't want to submit my story at 11:50 PM (U.S. Eastern) and find out you live in England...(not that I would do that, haha)

    Darn, and I crammed today to finish by the deadline. I really should've checked. At any rate, here is Galactic Shellos
