Coming Soon

Okay. I have two main personal goals for June. One is
to enter the Bridport Prize
short story competition, and the other is to
implement discussion forums on Unique Sentence so
that people can comment on (okay, maybe I mean "argue
about" :) each sentence. It's likely that the forums
will take second priority, as the Bridport has a hard
deadline of 30 June. But I'm still going to try to do
both, as they're quite complementary in terms of
brain requirements, and working on either one should
help me give my brain some time off from the other...

One Sentence Stories

A friend just sent me a link to One
Sentence (thanks Alex!), which is not
entirely dissimilar to Unique Sentence, except
that their sentences tell a story. I guess the
other difference is that theirs are crafted,
rather than cropping up accidentally. Anyway.
It's a fine site, and I commend you to go look
at it. I'll be trying to think of a One Sentence
story for them myself :)
In other news, I'll soon be putting some form of terms & conditions in place for signup to Unique Sentence, which means that all the sentences will end up Creative Commons licensed (it's been on my "to do" list for some time, but seeing One Sentence's terms and conditions reminded me.)
I'm also thinking about tidying up some of the sentences. Some of them are just plain lame (thanks, AR. You know who you are) and some of them are a bit on the poorly-formatted side. I may well correct spelling and capitalisation, at the very least... Think I'll include that in the Terms & Conditions; I've always wanted to say "...and the editor's decision is final" at the end of a sentence :)
