    Hey all,

    This will be updated to the group shortly, but after some thought and consultation, I've decided two rule changes to the Summer Vacation Challenge.

    First, the word count requirement is being bumped down to 500 words or more. The challenge rule this time around of stories only still applies.

    Second, I'm going to give everyone an extra month and change to get stories done. The due date will now be Sept. 13.

    Susan Tepper has her story up already, just in case anyone is interested. Go read: http://www.fictionaut.com/stories/susan-tepper/summer-in-the-city

    It's an out-of-the-box way of thinking about summer vacations. After reading her story, I threw what I'd started away and began anew.

    Hope everyone is having a safe and happy summer.

    -Kevin Myrick

    Yes Randal, come on into the big hot tub we have set up here. Oh, that fire below? No need to worry about that. That's just to keep the water nice and boiling hot.

    :)
