Hey thanks! That would be shocking!

[OldDarth]

Best of luck everyone.

You really realize how long the process takes when you don't submit in a quarter.

[disgruntledpeony]

Yeah, that's how I've been feeling about Q2. XD

[JVAshley]

You really realize how long the process takes when you don't submit in a quarter.

Yes, half the fun of submitting is being able to fret in harmony with everyone, instead of in a room all by yourself waiting on a reply from an editor or agent.

It makes the wait a party. A really twitchy party, but it does make the waiting more fun.

[Randy Hulshizer]

My guesses for Q3:

F -- Dustin Adams
SF -- Ishmael
SHM -- emilymccosh
HM -- disgruntledpeony
HM -- Preston

[LaurieG]

My predictions for Q3? Everyone on the Forum gets Finalist.

Oh. Wait. It doesn't work like that, does it?

Well, it's my dream and I can dream it any way I want. So there.

[guthington]

I have a good feeling about those who subbed June 28 for some reason. Don't know why. Anyway, good luck to all of you! I also think that those who have been submitting the longest will have a great chance to be in the top 3 (unlike me who has only submitted to WOTF once before although I really like my first sentence for this one).

[Ishmael]

Since my last two efforts at this prognostication business seem to have jinxed those saddled with my choices, I think I should abstain this time.

I do appreciate the confidence in me expressed above, though I should in fairness point out that this quarter's story is not the sort of thing I normally write. That may or may not be a good thing. One way or the other I suspect it may break my run of HM / SHM.

[storysinger]

though I should in fairness point out that this quarter's story is not the sort of thing I normally write.

Which means you might write the story that sends you to the head of the class. I'm sure Dave is keen on finding any new thought or process. Be original, stretch the boundaries of your imagination, write on.

[Jason Parker]

Meh. I think my 3rd quarter story had too much backstory in it, too many pot holes, probably from reading too much Stephen King, particularly The Stand. Reading Erle Stanley Gardner seems to be tightening up my writing. My latest story was way better than my 3rd quarter entry, but it just went to IGMS, which, if rejected, will probably be revised for WOTF next quarter.

Best of luck, all!

[Jason Parker]

I predict Laurie G, a fellow Donald Maass fan, will make it into V33.

[Imagination Vortex]

I better hurry and get in on this too. Going all out this quarter and going to guess finalist for the following:

Kentagions
Rharp
KD Julicher
Muri
Dustin Adams

[Dustin Adams]

Damn,
With a round of Rs going out, I've missed my chance.
Well, then...

[Imagination Vortex]

Well now everyone's results are in and unfortunately we all guessed wrong this time so there are no points to give out.



So the current standings remain the same. Last chance is Q4!!

Dustin Adams: 5 points
KD Julicher: 4 points
Amoskalik: 2 points
emilymccosh: 2 points
