Play if winter sport (skiing, down-hill or cross-country, hockey, skating, sledding, etc.), watch if not a winter sport.

Fly or drive if time isn't critical?

History museum if had it were only one, but art museums are nice too. Just like museums and history in general.

Stanley Cup or World Cup finals?

Mine is following yours, Mendalla.

Definitely bliss out. I avoid crowds and noise. Prefer the sounds of nature to the sounds of civilization. I envy Superman's 'Fortess of Solitude!'

Vacation on land or cruise at sea?

Like both, with gravy. But my preference is for rice.

Movie or Dancing on a dinner date?

Hmmm, interesting choice. I'm choosing historical romance though. I like history, even though a mat/physics major in college.

Sea Food or Beef/chicken/Pork?

Cheesecake is good no matter what. But, traditionally baked anything is always better than packaged food. Not like something right out of the oven.

Romance or Horror?

Quote by Molly

Look at this! I step away for two days, and I come back to five new stories! That's fantastic. I have so much reading to do. Yay, keep 'em coming.

More contestants, please. We need more wtiters to submit their magnumopus so that the Summer Love composition will be largest and best EVER! Besides, Molly is bored without a story backlog!!

I've read the first three competition stories. All of them are excellently written and well worth the time to read. All draw your emotions out. All three have caused me to reevaluate my own story and pause on its submission. Thank you all you have written and entered the competition. I hope to join you soon.

Being a math and science major (as well studying law), I a descriptive, detail-oriented writer.

Urban or Rural for story setting?

Realistic fiction for sure. Stories about spirits, the supernatural, etc., are really hard for me.

Longer, more detailed stories with character development or shorter stories where the protagonist isn't as well defined?

In that dilemma right now. Started on the current comp. Found out it was going to be way to long for a 1000 word limit comp. Started to rewrite it. Read the first two stories of the comp. Realized mine was to tame (or lame). Now trying to come up with something for it. Usually, want to get it out of the way. Still hope to in the next day or two.

Write stories based on truth (or fact) or write totally fictional stories with no regard for accuracy or fact?

Sundae. With nuts. Chocolate or Carmel syrup with vanilla ice cream. Cherry on top, of course, with whipping cream too.

Chocolate or Strawberry milkshake?

Got carried away on the word count and had to hack a bunch of words.

I know where you're coming from. I too got carried away and had to restructure my story. Hope to get it ready for submission tomorrow.

Depends on trip and destination. For just scenic driving, a sedan is much more comfortable. But if you're getting off the road, or off improved highways, then an SUV. Same for camping or similar. SUV. But generally, sedan is much more comfortable and you can enjoy the trip better and longer.

Ice cream in a cone or in a bowl?

Hamburgers. I'm a beef girl. Hot dogs are good too, though.

Crowded, boisterous beach on the ocean or quiet, serene beach on a lake?

Quote by WriterGirl

Woohoo! Fun comp, Molly! :worship:

Already have the idea floating around in my head.

Fortunately, its Friday the 4th, not Friday the 13th!

Smaller, more intimate setting. I absolutely hate crowds and make every effort to avoid them.

Hot and humid or cold and blustery?

What, if any, is the word limit, Molly?

Board game, although I find few guys who would agree.

Tubing or canoeing?

Lobster

Chicken or Pork? (The other white meat)

Either is good, I love beets. But if had to choose, prefer pickled.

Corn on the cob or loose corn.

Bake a dessert. I'm always a fan of home cooking, whether I'm doing it myself or at a diner or a mom-and-pop restaurant.

Audio book or read a book?

Hosting a party is more work that most people think it is. Plus you have an obligation to see it through regardless. Attendance requires your presence, but how long is up to you. So attend; easier to extricate yourself if the party begins to sour.

Skiing the Austrian Alps or the Colorado Rockies?

Walk in the woods. Love sounds of nature and the peace and quiet without the crowds at the beach. Plus, not a sun worshipper.

Classroom, in-person or virtual, on-line college (or other) class?
