Anyone got any favorite genres?
(Action, Adventure, Andres, Mystery, Romance, Satirical, etc)

Historical fiction is my favorite. Couple it with some superstition (negative kind) and make a spooky sort of tale. For example, the Franklin Expedition not being doomed by lead poisioning, but rather some darker lurking something or other. If I had any talent, that would be my tale. :)

I shall have to withdraw my story then:(

Write something new Takeda. There is time if you start now! :)

Hmm..it is sad,But I will try.

Gonna have to take a swing at this once finals are over. Sounds like fun. Only have done a couple of short stories. Will be interesting to try something based on an historical period for a change.

I've always wanted to write a story as a Takeda Cavalryman at Nagashino, perhaps I'll do that....

Am I to understand that I garner no additional points if I write this in Japanese, and that if I do so (write in japanese, mind, not curry favour) I risk being shunned by the community at large?

Motep, we would all be very impressed, but it would be hard on the judges who don't read Japanese. Which would be all of them. So do what feels right.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what my brother and sister Orgahs come up with ...
