.Amy. Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 No its ok i just wanted to know out of interest
Skykat Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 Jess just PM'd me back to say in her opinion it should be one entry per comp. Hope that clears it up for you.
-Annie- Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 Annie, re your earlier post: if there's anything I can do to help you finish your entry on time just say so. Well I'm halfway through writing something, and I'm almost positive that it will be ready before the deadline... I hope! Thanks heaps for the offer! I think that all I would ask from you is if you could proof read when I'm done? When is the latest that you would accept fics that need proofing? Also, I'm slightly dumb with the whole time/day difference between the UK and Australia, so when is the dealine Aus time?
Skykat Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 Hmm. The deadline I set was 30th September UK time but I've just realised that's Saturday and I'm away Saturday morning until Sunday afternoon so I'm extending the deadline by two days. UK Deadline: 11.59PM Monday 2nd October. Australian deadline : you're about twelve hours ahead of us so we'll say that the deadline for you is midday on the 3rd October. Is that fair? Clear enough? I'm open to negotiation if anyone is unhappy with that. Sorry to those who have already got their entries in for making you wait. It's bad organisation on my part. Re proof reading. I'm willing to receive entries for proof reading up until deadline day but bear in mind I'll be away from the morning of 30th Sept until late afternoon 1st October (think that means I'll be away from late evening of the 30th and all day on the 1st for you Aussies). That means that I'd either need your entries in for proof reading within the next two days or after I'm back: the day before deadline day. That's a real pain isn't it? Sorry I can only appologise. If somebody finishes their story while I'm away and desperately wants it proof read can I suggest they send it to I Love Music instead? She's been helping me with the proof reading for this comp and is pretty damn good at it. I will promise that if you send your entries to me that I'll get them back to you promptly. Sorry for being a pain.xx

Sorry for being a pain.xx I am...? Thanks! Yep, I'll proof read if anyone wants me to, but would prefer PMs no later than Friday 29 Sept (UK time) as Saturday would be the latest date I could work on anything - I'm not sure if I'm going out Sunday and have a hectic Monday ahead. I'm off work at the moment so up to Friday is fine.
Skykat Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 Sorry ILM I should probably have asked your permission before I posted that you were available. Thanks for saying yes though! And yes you know you are, why else would I ask your advice on absolutely everything?
-Annie- Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Well, something sucky has occured. I just got surprised by my folks saying we are going on holidays...tonight! I still haven't finished my writing, so I can't enter this comp. I'll DEFINITELY enter the next one, and good luck to everyone! I probaly won't get a chance to review...but hopefully I can still read them!
Skykat Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Wish my parents would surprise me with a holiday! Oh well, have fun.xx
I love music Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Just a reminder, if anyone wants me to proof read their entry for the comp can you PM me by tomorrow at the latest? I'm off work anyway so I'll check my inbox a few times during the day.
Skykat Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 I'm not going away now, had to work instead so free for proofing instead. the competition deadline still stands, not sure if anyone else is planning to enter now. I know a few people have dropped out.
