Green Room - Sign-Up Week - Day 4

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

They say that you should live every day like it was the last day of your life.

I imagine this is because you can never be too sure when that bomb I attached to your car is going to go off! Of course, I may not have actually gotten *your* car. In which case your neighbor sure is in for one nasty surprise!

In the words of Elvis Costello, “Welcome to the Working Week”, and more importantly, to Idol.

Sign-ups are still happening: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/648417.html

I’ll admit, even though we are close to our minimum number of people before we start – I’d much rather have the maximum. It makes for a better time, and given the nature of the “special mini-season”, and it’s purpose, maximum is *much* better!

I always say that it’s a good time to tell a friend about Idol – and from all of the newbies coming out for this mini-season, it seems that some of you have taken that to heart! Thank you, and welcome to everyone playing for the first time!

It almost makes me regret the torture that I will put you through. Almost.

Who am I kidding… I don’t! ;)

I always say it, but it’s definitely true this time around!  So spread the word!  http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/648151.html

I have noticed people commenting to the previous day, or so, Green Rooms. Which is awesome. But, especially with the friending frenzy thing, it’s always good to speak up again if you were at the tail end. Because not everyone keeps following the older rooms!  (I’m always afraid that someone will think they are being ignored. For the most part, the only one who is ignoring you is me. And that’s because you are a bunch of commie hippie foreigners trying to sneak over the borders of my apartment (aka ‘Merica) trying to steal my jobs!

Topic - Week 0

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Sign-ups are still open. http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/648417.html

But why make you sit around and get to know each other when I can instead have you writing?

The "Week 0 topic" is traditionally a non-required, but good to get some practice, "Introduction" piece. After all, not everyone knows each other. Some people write a "and I like such-and-such" and others use it as a jumping off piece for folks to get the first sample of their work.

People approach these things in different ways,

and this mini-season is no exception.

Because this week your task is to Introduce someone else!

That's right. Pick someone else who is signed up for this season, and write an entry introducing them!

Can it be fiction? Yes. Can it be non-fiction? Sure. Can it be interpretive dance? If you can find a way to fit it into an LJ entry, sure!

The trick is, as usual, no one can introduce the same person!

For those new to the process: You write your entries on your own LJ and link them back to this post. Please only post links to this.  (in this case, it's OK to "claim" someone. But please edit your post to add the link once you do)

The deadline to link your entries here is Thursday, May 9th at 9pm EDT

Have fun!
