| 25271 | To allow, or not to allow? That is the question. | I also vote NO to such restrictions. It would close off an avenue for me and as you know I'm already barren for ideas. But more than that, variety. I'm a fan. I am really tired of reviews and top ten lists. They have saturated the "creative writing" sites, be they content mills or blogs. They're easy, cheesy, and cheap. NO offense to anyone who writes those. They're also fun. But I like to see more. And I think fiction requires another set of skills. Let's don't be a one-ring show.<br><br>Finally, it's really not possible. How would you enforce, how do you distinguish a work of fiction from autobiography? It would be so easy to hide. "Oh, yes sir, Vaporman, sir, I truly did skin my knee when I fell off my Big Wheels trying to show off to my babysitter by racing down the driveway" when I really didn't? Who cares? They're just strangers' stories anyway. That something actually happened, as described and wholly unembellished, to the person who typed the words makes little to no difference to me as a reader. And what of embellishment, or exaggeration? What if someone fills in details to make better writing, even if it's not exactly as it happened? Would that also be disallowed?<br><br>No. Your initial instinct was entirely correct.<br> | shakin steak | Oct 16, 2015 |  |

| 25265 | Halloween Article Contest 2015 | I submitted mine last night, did it make the deadline?<br> | vkimo | Oct 16, 2015 | |
| 25264 | Back to the Future | <blockquote rel="shakin steak"><b>shakin steak wrote :</b><br><i> Is the flux capacitor packaging just an outer cardboard box for the 2 sets?<br> </i><b>-end quote</b></blockquote>I hope not. I'm hoping it's a solid material with a plexiglass front and little intricate details for the device behind it. That would be so cool.<br> | Vaporman87 | Oct 16, 2015 | |
| 25263 | Halloween Article Contest 2015 | Well, another Halloween Article Contest is in the books, and the entries have been emailed to our generous judge, Lesley Bannatyne. She will begin reading them this weekend. I expect the judging to take a bit longer this year, considering the amount of entries and the length of some of them. So hang tight! <img src="http://www.retro-daze.org/images/smilies/p5.gif"> | Vaporman87 | Oct 16, 2015 | |
