Let X = X

 Hello from the airport. I'm off on my trip to Memphis.  The one to Little Rock was AMAZING.  

This promises to be much colder.  :O  DO NOT WANT.  Please send heat. 

If not heat - please send in your entries by Tuesday. therealljidol.dreamwidth.org/1214127.html    Or both.  Yes, that's even better. Send both!!

Apparently there is at least one person afraid that there is still a dose of poison out there, because I have received a request to distribute an antidote. So, if you are feeling similarly, and are one of the Top 5, please make sure to send your request to me at clauderainsrm@gmail.com!

How is your week going?  

 There are 5 writers left standing. 

I'm going out of town both this weekend and next... it's the holiday season... yeah, you know where this is going.  ;) 

Long deadline.  But why? What could possibly justify a long deadline. 

The Portfolio.  

Congratulations, you have made it to the Portfolio.

If you've never seen this before, it's what it sounds like. It's your Idol resume, in the form of stories. 

There are multiple pieces:  

- A wraparound piece of your own, something to tie the elements together.  It's an Open Topic but with a specific purpose of tying things together in a complete package. 


- A link to your  favorite entry that you have written during the Wheel of Chaos. 

- A link to your favorite entry that SOMEONE ELSE has written during the Wheel of Chaos 

- An entry using the prompt "6  7"  because, yeah, why not?  

- An entry using the prompt "Banner year" 

- An "Open Letter" to a contestant in this Wheel of Chaos who is no longer an active participant.  Note: Just to make it fun, it can't be the one who wrote that entry you are linking.  :) 

There are 6 elements to the Portfolio. But to be fair, you don't have to write anything for 2 of them, just curate!

You have until Tuesday December 16th at 8pm ET to link the post to the Wrap Around.  (The Wrap Around should contain the links to all the other entries) 

Have fun!!
