Whoa, I'm late! I hope it's a boy.
The Editor being late? You'll never see that in the workplace. Count yourself lucky. I guess?
Because of my tardiness, Editor's Evening will take place today. (Better late than never, hey.) For those who don't know, EE is what is essentially a way to receive early criticism/praise on your MC submission. I say it how I see it, so if it's a terrible submission, I will take the time out what should be breakfast just to point out just what is so terrible. Along with me critiquing your work, if you decide to attend EE, you must also leave a comment (of 4 lines minimum; no two-word comments please) on the other participants of EE. In other words: if you want a critique, you must give some also.
If you want to attend EE, submit a FULL draft of your MC submission into the Monthly Challenge folder, and title your draft "EE". I notice there are those who've already submitted. If you're one of those people, and you want to attend EE, simply change the title of your submission to "EE" as well.
I believe I wasn't so clear-cut about the rules: for this month's challenge, every sentence must be in the future tense. However, while the first verb must be in the future tense, the rest of the sentence can be in other tenses. For example:
I will love you, like you once did and, while you don't think this way to be true, I will know who you are.
I, in all honesty, would rather everything to be in the future tense. But, since I'm a nice guy, I will allow this feature... In any three of your sentences. Any more, and it's gone. Sound good?
If you're not ready for EE, you're going to have a rough time.

Theme of the Week: Rodents
They're either cute and quirky pets, mischievous and fun-loving. Or they're feral, sick vermin, and fearful of people.
Rodents are very individualistic creatures. Each breed behaves differently. And then each rodent itself all have different personalities. Whether aggressive or sweet, you just can't resist that adorable face.
So what about you? What kind of story or poem can you make with the thought of a teeny tiny mouse or a big ol' beaver? Is it a little pet in cage, being fed the sweetest strawberries and dancing in a human hand? Or is it the plague-ridden rat hiding in the walls?

Theme of the Week: Freeze
From the cold regions of Antarctica to your kitchen refrigerator, our writing will be frozen solid this week.
Sometimes the peaceful rain is refreshingly cool after a hot season. Sometimes you leave that steak in the freezer too long and it gets frostbitten. Sometimes the blizzard kills you with hypothermia. Sometimes depression makes one feel nothing but ice. Sometimes love can melt your cold heart. And sometimes a dish is best served cold.
So get out there and imagine something freezing! Don't forget to wear a sweater.

Theme of the Week: Regret
We've all done things that we regret. Don't you sometimes wish you could reverse time to mend the ills? To have DONE something you should have done? What about your dear characters?
We're on the topic of deep regrets here. The idea of wishing that one could wish they never did what they have done. But this can apply to anyone; you, your neighbor, your little brother, your original characters, anyone.
Regrets feel bad, but they help shape your morality. Just the fact that you regret it means that you know better.

Theme of the Week: Scope
Need to see something very far away? Use a telescope. Need to see something too small for the naked eye? Use a microscope. Whether it's close or far, a scope can help you find what you seek. Even eye glasses are a type of scope. Look through that lens - small or large - what do you see? What do you hope to find?
Magnify your inspiration and snipe your idea. Find your focus, and record your findings.
Happy writings,
