We’ve got some great news for those of you who’ve been begging and begging Aussie to come back to MF. Well, good and bad. We’ll throw you the bad first and save the tasty for last.
Bad: Aussie still gives his “no comment” when we asked him if he’ll continue his Afterthoughts story. He started writing Afterthoughts a while back right before the MF site was hacked. Oh well … We tried 
Good: Aussie did say he wants to start a new continuing story that may even go through the summer. We’re going to set up a special page for him where he can log in and add/modify his story whenever he needs to.
And, if any of you creative writers out there who have that knack for continuing stories, please drop us a line! For those of you who are still in the dark about “continuing stories,” it’s where a writer submits a couple paragraphs usually a couple times a week – as in the “next installment” of the story. Continuing stories can go on and on and on, but should someday (hint: Aussie) be completed otherwise it just become torturious (is that a word?) to us readers. And, we actually have a new continuing story contest which is opening up the beginning of next month (May) as long as we have enough people to kick it off with. If you’re interested, here are the continuing story contest rules as well as the contest entry form.
So … go Aussie, and for everyone else, keep on the lookout. He hasn’t told us yet what the story’s title will be.
