The Deadline for sending in your first page prompt is November 12th. Don’t miss out, you can learn a lot from a first page critique and Sudipta Bardham will be critiquing four next Friday the 18th.
All you have to do other than find a beginning of a story in the picture, is to use the word “Watch or watched” in the first line.
Please attach your double spaced, 12 point font, 23 line first page to an e-mail and send it to kathy(dot)temean(at)gmail(dot)com. Also cut and paste it into the body of the e-mail. Put “November 18th First Page Prompt” in the subject line.

I have a feeling that many of you who came out to our Free Craft Day last weekend might have missed Dan Santat on Illustrator Saturday last week. I think there is so much information for our writers and illustrators, that I want to remind you to take a look.

win critique 
I am going to continue accepting first pages written from a prompt and picking four to receive a critique each month. I will announce the critiquer next week, but in the meantime you can try you hand at using the picture below by Colin Throm for inspiration – seems to fit with Halloween coming up. All you have to do other than find a beginning of a story in the picture, is to use the word “Watch or watched” in the first line.
Please attach your double spaced, 12 point font, 23 line first page to an e-mail and send it to kathy(dot)temean(at)gmail(dot)com. Also cut and paste it into the body of the e-mail. Put “November 18th First Page Prompt” in the subject line.
Hope you give it a try.
Talk soon,
