MiLords and MiLadies Welcome to the 17th writing challenge of 2007! Our last challenge went over like a lead balloon! In fact, I'm wondering where everyone is? at any rate, one of our Ladies submitted an idea for this challenge. Princessgeoffrey was kind enough to share the following idea: "I had an idea that you might be able to use as a writing challenge: everyone's Dave Barry-esque "I swear I am not making this up" story. The story that we tell of some strange experience we had that needs absolutely no embellishment because it's insane enough all on its own, such as the story of how I had to be the designated driver on my 21st birthday." You have until the end of the month. Remember to let me know when you have posted so that I can link you and to visit the other memebers and give Stars! ***** Also, with Halloween on the horizon, keep in mind the Koffeen Halloween Extravaganza for this year! Any odd, strange, paranormal, or "halloweenish" story that you have either experienced or thought of will be the subject of that challenge! Enjoy and I hope you will all participate in this challenge! ~Kween ******* 1. FourthChance 2. TheAmulet 4. m_elmer_48 7. Stacy74 10. RedHairedCelt 11. JeepThing 12.

MiLords and MiLadies It's time again for another challenge! I have an idea this time. . . Do you see those challenges listed over in my premium module? For this challenge, I'd like you to pick one of those challenges! Any one of those listed. If you've missed any, now is the time to pick one that looks interesting to you. And a second request. I've started yet another blog ring. I've resisted telling you it until now, but I'm taking the plunge and hoping you'll jump right in with me. The reason behind it is to attract more of the male population, so please don't think I was trying get away from all of my lovely ladies of the court. Heaven knows I LOVE being Kween! If you are interested (and I hope you are!) Please go HERE and get involved in the challenge I've posted, and join the blog ring! As always, you have 2 weeks (until 9/15). Comment on as many as you can and give those *Stars*! Have fun my friends! ~Kween EDIT: Please go HERE A fellow Queen has passed away. Camping Diva was a sweet, smart, funny woman who loved her family and her lifestyle. She will be dearly missed. *** 4. pray14me 5. perseyownz 6. m_elmer_48 7. TheAmulet (New Member!) 8. azcason 9.
