FTW, what does that mean anyway?

At first, I felt sorry for the weasel, but then Urban Dictionary told me what it really meant, then Wiktionary told me a different meaning and that's the one I intend to use here:
For The Win!

Okay, so lots of late night chatting and brainstorming, and epiphanitizing has led me to START OVER on a new WiP, a YA dystopian.  I know, that bandwagon is HUGE, but I am convinced I can squeeze out a fresh  perspective with my story.  Wish me luck.  I'll keep you posted.

  1. Ooh. dystopian. I can barely spell that! I'm more realistic contemporary. But world building is the coolest. Go you! Good luck!

  3. Up until a few weeks ago, I had no idea what FTW meant. I'd assumed it was something goofy like (Bleep) The Werewolf or something that didn't make any sense like Pwned. Turns out, the truth is kind of cute. I agree, For The Win is sweet. And so is your idea for your book. Rock and roll, bro!

  4. I must say, I'd always wondered about FTW, so thanks for the research :) Don't you just love that new shiny WIP feeling? Looking forward to hearing about the journey.

  9. Good luck to you, Jon!!
    Speaking of FTW, yesterday at a concert I stood in line behind a guy (who mentioned to his friend he had just gotten out of jail...yikes!) with three words with the initials FTW tattooed below his neck. T was the, W was world. F was a swear word. Classy.

  10. I am excited about this.

    Not so much the acronym as the wip.
