Because books.

For that I might be willing to make an exception ...

Oh, I think I'd have no problems turning in something under fifteen thousand. Heh. I'll get back to you when I break five thousand.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

What, you think we can't all come up with fifteen thousand words about goats?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Yes! That's why I said "original writing," with you in mind!

And a broad theme (like ... I don't know, people, or darkness, or blue, or whatever) would work for anything.

Sounds interesting. My ability to contribute would depend on the time frame. I am so busy right now.

I have a question, but to ask it I'd need to post 290 word excerpt and a 505 word excerpt. It's about level of detai., I'm trying to decide if a can get more of a sense of setting and detail (a problem a few people have had) without messing things up. That may be a bit much to post, but could I maybe email someone if someone is willing to take a look? Just impressions, not looking for mistakes.
