If anyone is here looking for our usual alternate wednesday silliness from Vincent then i'm afraid this week he's focussing on his own writing. Rather than let this slide by without comment I have decided that what it means is that we get to tell him what to do for the next column.
What I need from you guys is the following:
First line
Last line
Significant plot twist
Genre
You have until next weeks Ravenous Wednesday to offer up your suggestions in the comments to this post and then we will have to make a selection and send Vince his instructions.
I will be demanding he write a short story (does 1000 words sound reasonable? for us, not him) especially for Un:Bound, using the selected options, to entertain us after this weeks neglect.
Also if anyone has any other good ideas for things we can dictate for the story include that in your comments too. Cruel and unusual are entirely acceptable.

Coming to the sudden realization that he had never been in a revolving bed, let alone tied to the head board of one,
In despair, Marvin pulled the bus cord and without waiting for it to even slow, threw himself from the vehicle...
Plot twist...Marvin is not what he seems.
hahaha Karen, I like the way you think, also, I now want a revolving bed. :)
It was a sofa made of toast
And his eyebrows walked off his face
A woman being two midget men in reality
Historical romance :P
YAY
lmao oh I feel and interesting mix and mach coming on. Will have to get someone else to pick. :) Maybe Cat Connor.
OK, I'm going to give Vincent something simple, ordinary and not cruel.
1) Joe had never been to a prostitute before.
2) But then, Joe had never been to a prostitute before.
3) (Joe has actually been to hundreds)
4) Horror
I'm sure Rickards will bring the eels, Elder Gods, and so on. If it seems too normal and inoffensive then the name Joe can be substituted for the other name I considered for this task. Konrath.
Just for torture!
lol, thanks Steve. I think Joe is good. :)
Steve- that's scary!
It sounds so ominous!
Actually, I'd like to make it even more ominous. The twist should be "Joe is a ghost".
Ignoring Steve's clear rip of every film M. Night Shyamalan's wished he'd made after SIXTH SENSE with that replacement twist, here's mind:
1) The worst thing about becoming a priest, Edward found, was the constant need to shave his bishop.
2) And as the flaming wreckage of the village fell to earth around him, he gently rubbed his cock and strode into the night.
3) The bishop is actually a religious leader. The cock is actually a farm bird.
4) Children's.
"Here's mind" he claimed, not realising that statement was inherently self-contradicting.
When he had awoken that morning, James had not expected to, later that day, regain consciousness entangled in the legs of a dead giraffe.
In truth, he found wearing the skirt quite liberating.
Twist: The giraffe's not real.
Genre: Steampunk
This came form an Idea I had for a story. But I don't know if I would be good enough to carry it off.
1. Sid feared his front door and the world that was beyond it.
2. The phone rang, with its irritating tone but there was no one left to answer it.
Twist= Sid is prone to prophetic hallucintaions.
Genre= Near future.
I am here!
AND: I choose.... drum roll please...
1st line: Karens: Coming to the sudden realization that he had never been in a revolving bed, let alone tied to the head board of one,
Last line: Harbinger: The phone rang, with its irritating tone but there was no one left to answer it.
Significant plot twist: Mangacat: A woman being two midget men in reality.
Genre: Suw: Steampunk (because I have no clue what it actually is and am hoping Vincent can enlighten me)
Enjoy! But don't hate me too much, it's very early and I'm claiming not to be awake yet. :)
LAMO! Nice. I couldn't possibly have chosen, they were all so funny, but I think that should be extremely entertainging.
