Clever move by the author! I did wonder about the sense of being there before. Circling round. Like the seasons... I'm so glad that we are all able to...

Thank you for explaining how this story works its horrors to perform. And how the coldness is intentional. I just couldn't make the connections. Block...

I've still to read Bunny. I'm thinking of starting at the end. That sometimes works. OK, then. I must bow to your greater knowledge of the authors. No...

But I'm right! I know it :smile: And a nod to 'sparrow' from Buried Treasure. :flower:

Nude Descending a Staircase - ToothyMaw.

True. We are still in that mindset. To find a 'winner'. And usually, @"Baden" likes to shut up shop. True. But I think that authors can't participate ...

Yes. I read that. Changing it back. Yes. We agreed that before. Don't know why I changed it. Will have to write this out, listing the proper titles. Y...

@"Noble Dust" - The Woman in the Portrait. Or Paper Houses. Am I warm?

Is that a clue? I'm zooming in. Watch this space :smile:

Latest: How does it look?

I've changed my mind, again. @"Benkei" for Catacombs.

There is never enough time allocated to this Activity. Given that it happens only once a year and writers put in so much effort. How many stories? 15?...

Anyone fancy a go at the new 'Philosophy Writing Challenge - June 2025'? Read about it here: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/15596/tpf-philo...

I agree with us being limited by our imagination. Where can it take us, beyond borders. How willing are we to let it flow to dangerous ideas? I don't ...

The Nexus Crown (continued) A middle-aged woman in rags working the rotten land, pointed the Dr to the town and uttered the word "Machyrios'. The auth...

This story is the longest ever. I think it comes in at 6 words short of the max 5,000! I intend to keep my feedback as short as possible - but it's di...

Nope! Keep reading :smile: Good to see you around. Sorry you weren't able to submit a story this year. I love Paper Houses. I would never write so man...

Flexibly foolish. :nerd:

Yup. We are only ever exchanging different perspectives. That's what makes this cool :cool:

:lol: Did you look at the state of its evolution?

I kinda understand. When I was trying to visualise 'I effervesced', the only way I could see the magic was via Disney. Complete with fountain of shoot...

Excellent choice of quote. I only briefly mentioned Alicia. But I remember this: How it showed HG to have a sensitive awareness. Noting the physical c...

It's an impossible task! I've still to read a couple...the longer ones. Needed a break. Hope you enjoyed Christmas!

What about formally ending it on 5th Jan? But the story discussions can continue...

Yes, that sounds good. :up: It depends on how long after that you want the Activity to continue. I think it is vital that authors get time to answer q...

Excellent! :up:

Hmm. I see what you mean. I remember Cruelty, very well. But authors can be shape shifters. Chameleons. You always surprise me! In a good way :clap: :...

Yup! :cool:

I remember it well. Put it back up, why doncha?

Same here! Many times. :up:

Yet another good point! :up:
