After a miserable start of 2022, I could do with an attempt at entering an OWC. Anyone else? Unless, Don is busy watching the Olympics, of course. |

Haha! I'd like a bit of official courting myself. And there's a proper hint there, in a roundabout way. I could go on about longing for the old days of lots of suitors too, but I'll leave it there. P.S. I'm off to do today's Wordle. |

A quickie, huh? I never took part in one. I forgot how they worked. Care to enlighten me? Any interest in one of those? I need to write something. SOON. |

A hint of what Libby?
An imminent OWC or your relationship status?
Enquiring minds need to know! |

Looks like something is in the works behind the curtains. Not sure if that's an OWC coming up or an in-depth look at Libby's relationship status though. |

Haha! Okay, you two... I meant an analogy which clearly failed about the numbers of SS faithful usually clamouring for an OWC and a certain date coming up in February. That clearly bombed. |

I am adapting Ganglers into a short story at the moment AND changing it to be set in the Wild West for a themed anthology book that are accepting submissions, but I could be tempted for a quick OWC if it fires up my motors! |

Looks like there's one coming our way. Yay! I will take part this time. I want a f'n mug dammit!!! Guessing? It's February, so it could be something lovey dovey, something sports related (Olympics), Black History month, President's Day, National Margarita Day or something simple like shitty weather. Or if I was in charge, Semlan's Dag!!! A sweet bun with almond paste inside and whipped cream on top. |

Semlan's Dag!!! Okay, you piqued my curiosity there, Pia, and I looked up some pics. OMG, (I try never to use that) but oh, they look soo good! ... FYI: A dag in Australia refers to the matted wool hanging from the hindquarters of a sheep. Oh, and it's also used as an affectionate insult. Anyway, here's hoping everyone comes out of the woodwork for this OWC. P.S. Was that a big ol' bleeding heart that Don sent out via email with the announcement? Pretty cool. |

Means day in Swedish. I don't think I know the word for that matted stuff at the end of a sheep in Swedish or English, and I consider myself a farm person.

Awright! I'll race you for the mug! |

Did someone say cake?
I can't read much here as I shouldn't since there's some strange bleeding in my eye. Nothing dangerous but I shouldn't stare at the comp a lot and have to let it rest. So, very possibly I'm out for this reason but let's see.
But I did see "cake"¯ now fighting myself to read the thread and check out what's this about) |

Yes, the OWC is now the 'one week of cake' challenge. Kidding. Are you turning into a zombie, Kham? Never mind, watching All of us Are Dead on Netflix is rubbing off on me. Hope your eye recovers fast. That sounds nasty. Hope you can get better in time for the OWC. Stevie, I've never heard of Willnots & Must Hangs before. |

I'm up for a RomBom - a romantic comedy so cheesy and bad it's guaranteed to bomb at the box office. |

Thanks Lib. And, yes, I’m an authentic zombie walking in New York. So if anyone in NY needs one, I’ll walk in your movie too! |

Roland, it could be set anywhere. Not that I'm in the know. We somehow took a cake detour. Personally I blame Pia. Your guess is as good as mine, but I'd guess what not where might be more important. Only time will tell. |
