Interesting!

A good read, it's what we all think but never put into words, very clever! Best of luck.....

Dead funny and i think it would be a winner.

Made me laugh.  Good luck.

haha this is good.

This is creative, and humorous, in parts.  In contrast, some of the submissions created gruesome images which did not appeal to me.  Nevertheless, with a bit of editing, and some re-organization, this might be a real winner. 

Good Luck!  nancy

love it

Publish!

At the last moment of life, some Buddhist monks write "jisei".  A poem with which the author gives up his last breath, and dies.  Jisei are publishable, because they are an incredible triumph of the human capacity for creation, and furthermore many of them are absolutely magnificent. 

These, on the other hand, are not: (1) funny, (2) interesting, or (3) significant in any way. 

How is this publishable?  What standard have 200+ individuals applied whereby they have concluded that attempting to peddle this stuff to consumers is a good idea?  I would be impressed if even the authors bought a copy.

it would make a great reality tv movie/story.... you die and are brought back. by an ultra "Modern in the future Team of experts";  in bringing back life, and ...  just happen to be... reality tv doctors. That Way... there can be a  Protagonist who has many Deaths under his Belt and the more you die and come back the STRONGER YOU ARE!
each time Brought back to life by a Team of LIFE GIVERS who question him on what he saw or heard. on the otherside. all the other contestants are competing for a million dollars each time

 each time he was in the tunnel.of death walking toward the white lite...There  is always a message /or you see people who have died before you and  he could have adventures on the death side too!.....having  to decide, each time to live or die. Hey....!? maybe that is the story: each time the contestant decides if it is worth living or dying! because if you had been good on this side ...there own GOD will offer you complete paradise .But if you were bad, the story was different ;you had to make a choice: come back and clean up your kharma...
just thought I would throw my two cents in I didn't know if you have written this already or if it is just an IDEA>
Peace

This has the potential fro immense depth and color!

Got my vote, go for it!

This was a really good short story

When will my boyfriend be home?

A Right Bloody Mess In The Prison Showers...haha. Funny stuff, very creative project. I'd love to see this one printed.

Jajajajajajajajaja oh, so acid humor; love it!!!

Funny in a dark sort of a way.

"I always knew a spork would be the death of me."

I haven't the foggest idea what I'll say but I will soon Great!

"You know that saying don't poke the bear?"

Good luck

What a funny project! My last words would be....not now Im on WeBook........

great reaaly interesting

"Only in my last minutes can i say for sure that. . . I hate you.
Ahh! do you know how good that feels to have that off your chest"

It's a catchy little project and quite amusing

This is great, and I see that it is composed by various authors.  They don't call me Looney Larry for nothing.  My  taste runs right down this alley.  This gets my vote, and my hearty laughs.

Eight years ago I thought I was going to become a road kill statistic, I'm still here, but this is what I though just before my head hit the windscrean and I place my right hand over my eyes.

"I might be going to die, but I'm fucked if I'm going to be blind!"

Brilliant! I agree with darkened_jade, this is all hilarious!

I think this is hilarious.  Loved it.

Hi,

I've been keeping an eye on the poles and on the works for which I voted.  I've noticed that it is quite plain that the best works are receiving the most negative votes, simply because others feel their chances are threatened.  There might even be some cross-negative voting, ie, your fans voting negatively on other books, so I thought you'd like to know the following.  Please read it and let your fans know that they need not vote negatively to get your work published!  i received this email from Melissa, the site coordinator after emailing her my thoughts and feelings about the negative vote.:

James,

I've posted about this in the WEbook forums; check it out here:  http://www.webook.com/forums/messageIndex.aspx?topic=cce7e374128946999b9c4baca1e2e360&fview=true

We did not anticipate the kind of negativity and unscrupulous voting that we've seen.  We will likely not include negative votes in the final tally.

Hey Melissa!  I am writing because, as I'm sure are many we-booker's, I'm concerned about the 'negative voting'.  People are clearly just voting every project (other than their favorite) down without reading the material.  This is really disappointing, and I am a little bewildered as to how this clearly inevitable outcome might not have been anticipated.

Is there any talk of eliminating this feature prior to the end of the election?  This is becoming a really hostile process, and it seems clear that given the "negative voting" mechanism, the results of this voting process will be impossible to interpret.

How will you select the top 10%?  What will determine that ranking from which you will select a work or works?  The highest % positive will of course be books only voted on a few time.  Will you ignore the negative votes at that point?

In any case, I just wanted to express my profound disappointment at this process.  I would love to know to what purpose the negative voting information will be put, as I would sleep better at night.  Right now my favorite webook books are getting crushed under the negative weight, and it is tragic.

This was so much fun I would love to see it published and share the laughs around. Good luck!!:)

That sounds amazingly intruiging!
*Clicks publish*

I like it! Thumbs Up!

These are all sooo good. Thanks to everyone for these last words before croaking!

How true!

Excellent..work, everyone

Funny!

Sweet idea I love it.  Makes you really think.

Nice

I really liked the title. I have a childrens book called The Sturtles up for vote. Please check it out if you have a second.

Oh Well Next...

Haha! Nice! ^-^

love the work here. good luck

crossing fingers hopes are good yeah!!

Hey, when you go on Oprah, take me with you!!!

Some excellent contributions to a great project.

I can't believe "Benny and the Jets" is the last song I'll ever hear

O---k....I guess. Interesting, but confusing to me. It's just me, I guess.

This really, REALLY should be published!
It's so interesting and a huge variety of people would read it, for sure. Thumbs up and good luck!!!!

There's over 130, probably plenty for a decent manuscript, but yes tahrasep has a good point If it's all too much the same a reader will get bored of it and put a published book down.

Another worry - quite a few have similar scenes, and some of the entries from multiple people seem to be the exact same. How many entries are there total, anyone know? 250?

Wonderful piece of art.

Some of these, around a half, I'd say, seem to be pure GOLD. I love it! It's the other half that I feel aren't as well-structured, precise, and witty as they could be. Some just need beter setence structures or a new approach, others I feel might weigh this project down.

I'm worried that this project might have been rushed to publication. It might have been stronger had you had more time. But whether this wins or not, you'll probably get enough exposure that by the next cycle you'll have an even better chance.

I'm going to keep reading the other five billion submissions before casting my vote on this project.

Either way, though, for the most part, this is hilarious.

Interesting :) probably would buy!! Tanu_love

Voted - this deserves to be published.

thumbs up.

good work

Hey, I have a poem/short story, actually two of them, but Final Goodbye is really good, and I was hoping you could consider putting it in you project, it is really good, and there is another one, but it's not that great, its Untitled I think, but please consider Final Goodbye

This project was soo awesome!! it needs to get published!!

How can you not publish it? One of the few projects out there leaning towards uniqueness.
