Woot! Entry posted! It's kinda frustrating. I cut my story down to what looks like 100 in Word, then plug it into the Word Count Tool to make sure, and the word count drops to 98. What the heck is Word counting as words? Oh, well. I got to replace two words that I hated to delete anyway.  |

The 13th, you say? Ugh....that gives me like two days to throw something together. Plus, the Ruin/Rise deadline is fast approaching. I better get a wiggle on.....  |

So, for this newest challenge, do we have to use the word "folklore" among the 100? Or is that just a loose overall prompt? Just wanna make sure I don't flub it up.

I'm going to say the same all the time. It's 100% up to interpretation. I won't ding you for not using a word, so long as it's in the spirit of the prompt! ^^ |

 I'm kinda surprised more folks aren't doing these. Hmm... |

To be honest, I'm also surprised the 100 Word Weekly Challenge is not more popular.
It was a huge success on the previous LF Board. So much so, that I took it upon myself to write little comments on all the submitted stories, after voting had taken place.
However, there has been a lot going on since the new LF came into being. First, NaNoWriMo and then the "Ruin/Rise" contest with its associated voting and critiques.
I'm hopeful interest will pick up once the initial dust has settled.
Maybe it needs to be advertised a little better?

While advertising could work, maybe upping the points?
Granted, I should be participating in them more too. XD Though it feels cheating because I pick the prompts.
I'm not going to fuss too much with the holiday weekend following the contest and NaNo... Just need to advertise more - OR maybe have a few hosted in Discord to see if that plays to spark some fun.

I'm sure nobody would accuse you of cheating simply because you run the forum, Aubrey. I, for one, would love to read your stories.  |

Last call for crits on contest entries! 2 hours until final results are announced!
