Okay I modified my original post to include the names of the people you can be challenged and I blded the ones that have already been challenged. I'm not sure if I missed someone so if I did you need to let me know.

I also changed the word count to 3,000.

Yay for it being 3,000 words!! Now that it was upgraded, I say that we're all allowed to make one modification on our challenges.

Rose, your word count is now 234 words!! ;D

Sometimes 3,000 words can be hard to come by, & sometimes not.

I challenge Mare to write a story about Howie & a kid or two [or five-lol].

Rules

- NO killing the kids off, no causing them any serious harm [comas, car accidents, fatal diseases, etc.]

- Must be a happy ending story, because I love those! :D

- Relation of kids to Howie doesn't matter.

- They must be REAL children! No sci-fi stuff, or anything like that.

And I think that's it. I can't think of anything else at the moment - lol.

^ 3,000 words is the maximum. You can set your own minimums but not after you post your challenge.

Lenni... you knew this was coming...

I challenge you to write a suspenseful/cliche fic starring... ME!! LMFAO!!
- You gotta write me (Reb) as the main character
- Brian isn't married to Leighanne in your story, oh no no... he's married to YOU and he ends up leaving you for me (MUAHAHAHAHAHAH AHA)
- Your divorce has to end nastily, haha
- Fluffy-ness MUST be included when it comes to Brian and I getting together, lmao.
- You will have to kill Brian somehow *le gasp* Yes, my new husband will have to die. Doesn't matter how you go about it, you can have me kill him for all I care
- You have to end up with AJ (as in married)
- I have to end up with... Robert Downey Jr (as in married). (hey, a young gal can dream, right?)
- There has to be a showdown between you and I, and Iron Man and AJ.
- During this showdown, one of us will have to die (yes, I'm even putting my life on the line)
- You must end the story with a major cliffhanger, as if you left it open to be continued or whatever.

;D
