I could use some help please. I've entered a contest where I created a video about the wrong way to cook chicken. I think it's pretty funny, and I had a blast making it. I'd appreciate any and all votes, and if you feel inclined, please ask your friends to vote.

Thanks in advance. :)

My pleasure!

And, as someone who loves chicken but HATES waiting for it to cook - or cooking at all - I'm a bit disappointed it didn't work out better. Could have been a cool, lazy way to make dinner!
Er, and on the "favor" front - have you read my short story???? http://nightofthejewdog.blogspot.com/ I could use all the critiques I can get!

Spooky,

IntricateGirl Says:

Thanks!! I read the story, and I also read what you wrote the other day about switching from screenwriting to short-story writing. I think you already have it figured out. :) Definitely an interesting story!

Ok, IG

spookyyank Says:

It's hard to tell if anyone's read it when they don't leave comments. I'm hoping it all works out, but not leaving the screenwriting behind, just adding the books, too. Good luck with the video. I didn't have a chance to look it over (connection is if-y) what's it for?

It started as a PayPerPost

IntricateGirl Says:

It started as a PayPerPost video, but there was a contest associated and I figured if I've got to do all the work anyway, I might as well enter. lol It's supposed to show why flame grilling chicken is best. So, I cooked mine with a waffle maker. lol

You were absolutely right about the difference between screenwriting and story writing. I mean, they are SOOOOO different. Screenwriting, there isn't much need for descriptions. The director will cast whoever they want and set the scenery however they want. But with story telling, it's essential. I mean, I think your story could easily grow to over twice its current length with some really good descriptions, and more importantly, that's what makes a kick-ass story. Just flesh it out more, ya know?

And, you know what's crazy, IG

spookyyank Says:

As I've said many times now, this story began as a way to amuse only myself. So, at year 3/Christmas season 3, I was looking at the length and saying "This is nuts! If I don't finish this soon, it'll be a novel!". LOL
So, it was with that in mind also that I hurried to finish it! And, now I'm looking forward to the opposite. Geez.

I really laughed at seeing that chicken piece looking like a waffle! Imagine serving that to people or how your kids might prefer to eat chicken when it's shaped like a waffle! I'm seriously tempted to try it!

Okay,

IntricateGirl Says:

confession time. I actually did eat it. It was rubbery as hell, but it was thoroughly cooked and in much less time. We cut it up and used it in quesadillas. It was edible enough.

Seriously though, pass it along to EVERYONE. The contest ends on the 29th, and I'm in the lead so far, but there are some people gaining on me. lol

Not WOW is it?

IntricateGirl Says:

I've got some friends who are sucked in by that game. They keep telling me that I'd love it, but all I can think of is that South Park episode. lol

spookyyank Says:

it's some thing I've been sucked into, but haven't played yet. The Abyss I think. In the game, I'm my brother's daughter - he's about to marry my grandmother = and I believe he's made offspring with a sister or something. I don't get it at all, but will figure it out when I actually play! So far I've eaten 3 humans, but have no idea what that actually got me! LOL
Anyway, my handle is misstix and as soon as I get around to it, I'll be knee deep in bug squashing, I guess. LOL
