Mine is group 24 for: Comedy Tooting a horn "mode" Lord... Want to swap?! Haha.  Oh Lord! That's the genre I was dreading most. I am sooo sorry. Last night I told my hubby, "I'd rather try my hand at anything besides comedy, even romance."  Good thing about "tooting a horn" it can be done literally AND metaphorically. So you have options. As far as rowing a boat goes, I couldn't think of anything last night except someone literally rowing a boat and being chased by a sea monster. Yeah, not original. I wrote something up, but still. So ... I'll be brainstorming wilder ideas today. Edit: Oh, and I'm Raveneye on their forum, too. I signed up on the spreadsheet as a beta reader, if you want to exchange entries at some point. Or if you'd rather have a complete stranger look over your story, that's understandable, as they might be more objective than someone like me who is in your cheering section. |

That's basically what I told my hubby yesterday, too, haha. So unlucky to get romance last year, and now comedy, lol. HOWEVER, while I went to bed last night without any ideas, I think I've got something decent now and just need to finish & tweak it. I had to go with more of a dark comedy for it to resonate better.
I'm more than happy to exchange entries if you want to send yours along! I should have mine ready later.
