Green Room - Week 24 - Day 6

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

There is still a poll out there, http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/458636.html , to determine who will be moving on. People have been pointing out just how much fiction there is this week. Hopefully that's just how people decided to go with the topic rather than a general direction of the overall season/competition. I guess we will see how things shake out in the coming weeks.

I am currently reading the Bryson book "A Walk in the Woods" and just reached his visit to Centralia, Pennsylvania. More precisely, when he talks about the mine fire that started in 1962 and is still burning today.

If I didn't have to wait a season, I would make that a topic in and of itself, it's so interesting.

But since I have you here - what do *you* have burning, deep down inside? ;)

I really suspect it had a lot more to do with people not reading everything. I probably voted for it without reading it because I don't remember it :P (But I rarely had time to read anything early on with all the stuff I had going on).

OMG! I need to PM her and ask her for the picture. I want to see it! That whole piece still cracks me up, too.

At this stage of the game though, I'm so terrified to try it again... because maybe it *wasn't* more to do with people not reading. lol...

No you so do not! I look very decidedly... unhappy... in that picture. lol...

Pfffffft. It would not take you out of the game. Besides, if it looks like that's the direction the votes are going, you can always pimp yourself! Or hope someone else pimps you! The game is more fun when you take risks and write for yourself than it is when you're writing just because you want mass appeal. Not saying you're doing this, but it does seem somewhat implied by what you said :P

Teehee. You just make me want to see it more. You may as well just send it to me directly if you still have it ;) Has Pixie seen it?
