I made the deadline.  Maybe.

I completed the rough in time, turned it out at about 2800 words.  It is now around 3100 and will probably need about 500+ more to make it work.

So, dunno if I made the deadline.  Sucks.

From the feedback I received from my group, I realize that this story is a larger project than I initially  thought it'd be.  I went into it seeking to write out a snapshot of a place, and ended with a somewhat unrealistic portrayal of a person facing imminent death, and not getting changed enough by it. 

This leads to my question of the day -- when facing complete realization that one is about to die, and then finds him/herself alive, how would that person be changed?  

Can something like that even have an answer?

Will.

Could be a possibility. I may have already written in something I can build on to that type of theme.

Just an idea off the top of my head. I love writing stories like that, but it's really hard in a short to have enough room to do it right.

Mind if I friend you? You can't really see much of my LJ without that.

Go right ahead!

Can't have enough friends in this world, right?

besides, I appreciate other writers hooking up this way. Great way to see other viewpoints, find biblio for other autrhors work you may like to read, etc.
