Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge - Week Forty-Two

Zoe M. Scrivener · **Posted:** January 13th, 2013, 5:10 pm

And a new week begins!

Your challenge for week forty-two is to write a review of any published book and post it somewhere public. Extra points will be awarded if you participate in Grace's contest.

BONUS goal!: Enter the flash fiction writing contest.

Remember, in order to receive points for completing the weekly challenge, you MUST declare it by Monday at midnight.

As always...

The Rules wrote:

1. All challenges must be declared completed by midnight Saturday in your timezone (please specify your timezone when you sign up).
2. All challenges (personal or weekly) must be declared by midnight Monday in your timezone.
3. Personal challenges cannot be repeated.
4. The organizer reserves the right to veto any challenges that seem too simple. (i.e. writing a sentence)

If this is your first time on one of these quests, you'll need to see the initiation pamphlet.

Also, I would like to remind everyone that any weekly challenge pieces that are posted on the forum will be eligible to be featured in our newsletter. Please post a link in this thread if you would like it to be considered.

If you could write your sign-up post in a similar format to the following, it would be appreciated:
Goal: weekly challenge (or whatever you decide to do)
Timezone: PDT

WRITE!!! *turns over hourglass set to run out at midnight on Saturday*

I will have to think about the bonus challenge. I'm not sure I will have time to do it. Unless I polish up a chapter or two in my WIP that could be stand alone stories. *ponders*

Also, does this one count? The book won't technically be out until February, but it's a finished manuscript, not a WIP.

Weekly goal done! My review on Goodreads: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/505407770

And that was Grace's book, so that counts for bonus points.

I would do it again with Never, if I wasn't away.

Lady Katharina · **Posted:** January 16th, 2013, 4:55 pm

Weekly goal finished. Here is the link.Put in spoiler because of some content issue with the book.

Mistress Kidh · **Posted:** January 18th, 2013, 10:30 am

Mistress Kidh · **Posted:** January 18th, 2013, 1:26 pm

Lady Katharina · **Posted:** January 19th, 2013, 6:02 pm

My novella is finished!!! (until I start editing, that is) Right now it sits at 42,571 words. All in all, I am very happy with it.

Weekly Goal completed (would post link but amazon hasn't approved it yet)
Personal Goal failed

RunningWolf · **Posted:** January 19th, 2013, 10:58 pm

Finished the weekly goal seven times, one of those times I reviewed Never, so I did the bonus thing too.
I also did the bonus goal once.
And I got all my personal goals done as well.

*breathes a sigh of relief* *helps little brother sit up and gives him a cupcake* I'm not sure. I think you wrote yourself (almost) to death.

This week is done! Good job with your novella, Katharina!
