Why are you roping me into this. I am NOTHING like Scalenex.

I am furry not scaly, and I don't do editing. It's hard enough to type my own posts with these giant paws.

Listen (leans closer and whispers), everyone knows that you have access to the Scale-nexus himself, us mere mortals have to fire our messages out into the nether and hope for a response!

I see what you are implying.

Don't be ridiculous, I'm not implying anything!

TONS of people have seen Scalenex and Scolenex in the same room, even talking to each other.



See?

(This is a picture from the Batman Animated Series, which I loved when I was growing up. It's an episode where "Bruce Wayne" and Batman do show up together, after the evil doer (above, don't remember his name) is doing an auction for Batman's true identity revelation. Fantastic stuff.)

Okay, so I bit the bullet and did at least 80% of my contest story last night.

Will do my own proof-reading, adjusting of plot lines, etc. Then will send it off to @Scalenex or as he is known in 007 circles "The Man with the Scaly Skin"

Hehehe not evil per se but dastardly. Nobody will be able to resist the glory I wish to create (at least i hope not)

DO you want some glory? here you are!

Yes, you can identify a written evil laugh by the addition of "Muh-" at the start.

Common parlance now amongst evil villains.

Okay, so I've submitted my story to he-who-has-natural-chain-mail.

I liked writing it. Hopefully you guys like reading it.

That brings us up to two entries and it's not April yet. This virus' corona is more like a lining of silver.

My draft is about 65% done, so if I make a push I can get the draft done in the next few days and get the mighty @pendrake to double check

 

[Carnikang]

I don't even have a draft started. Moving over the course of 2 weeks while working amid a pandemic is a nightmare. Never doing this again.

Yeah... I had time so I banged out the story idea I had..

Kudos to Scalenex, the thread on LIzardmen Religious Rites in the Fluff section was brilliant.

I think I'll start writing another story just to keep my mind occupied.

@Scalenex

Just a question...

Since most people have more time on their hands with self-isolation should we pull back the TM for the contest?

That depends. What is TM?

Sorry, my own piece of slanguage. Mean "Target Made" meaning the target date for something.

WTM Lizards of Renown? It's unwise to use an acronym based on something you made up without explaining it.

Ha! Yeah, totally. I didn't even realize I'd typed it.

Yes, oh great overlord. Thy will be done.

I'll just write another story to keep myself busy.

 

[Sudsinabucket]

I have to start researching before thinking of any plot... so... surely I come up with a plot before even reading one bit of information

Grrr, Imrahil

Welcome to my life, thankfully there is a month to do research to come up with an improved plot
