Also, yeah, I agree, writing about myself in third person would be hard.

"Sweet holy fruit bats," sighed Bat, "If you touch my authentic Star Trek collectible figurines I will throw you out the window."

THAT'S WEIRD.

@_sleeby_rat_

I'm kinda stuck writing in third person since I cannot write anything in first person without it feeling incredibly off somehow

@_sleeby_rat_

to each their own I guess. I mean sure, I've read a lot of first person stuff that's really good, but whenever I try to write it I feel like I'm limited to one point of view? like you're sort of confined to the one character you're writing the perspective of

@Oakie Dokie

me writing in 1st person tho

"Rory, you asshole. The couch goes on the left side of the fire pit," I explain quietly, barely disguising a snicker. "The loveseat goes on the right."

@Masterkey

I will be a judge! And let's cap it at 5,000 words so I don't have too much to read. :P That's like the length of one long chapter.

@_sleeby_rat_

ok, and I haven't decided on a due date yet. I'm gonna try and get at least 5 participants before I set one but if we don't get 5 soon I'll probably give everyone like…a week or two to write

@Masterkey

Haha, I won't hold it against you if you go like 100 words over, but keep in mind that the longer you make your entry (usually) the better advantage you have (at least I feel like that, since there's more time to explain and describe), which isn't super fair to others. :P

@_sleeby_rat_

yeah I'm just really unnecessarily descriptive when I write so I'm gonna struggle to keep it under the word limit lol
