The October challenge
« on: October 02, 2008, 05:37:18 PM »
It's simple really. This month's challenge is called, "WTF? Is that it?"

Your story has to be suspense or horror.

~ It cannot exceed 3,000 words.

~ You must end it with a cliffhanger. You can imply something but you can't just flat out let us know what happens. Hence the WTF? title lol

~ It must be told in first person.

~ There has to be some kind of supernatural presence within the story.

~ You have to include Kevin but you cannot kill him or make him the bad guy.

~ Even if you aren't doing a BSB story, Kevin has to be included.

~ You are not allowed to make a banner for this story.

~ You have to include one of your biggest fears inside the story somewhere.

~ If you post "Wow this sounds like a great challenge i'm definately going to do it!" then you BETTER DO IT!


That's about it. Have fun all one of you that is probably going to do it.  ::) Yes, I have that much faith. lol

hmmm.....    now what am I supposed to do?   ???


Love the challenge though. I have to think about it... I'm not so good at cliffies. I have this horrible "happily ever after/fairylate ending" problem...

lol, but I'll come up with something.    *I SWEAR*

If Ryan looked at me the wrong way, I lost it. If Ryan looked at me the right way, I lost it. And whenever he tried to kiss me, something usually blew up. Someone ought to teach him a little control.

ghosts, magical stuff, psychic power, demons, angels...   weird stuff like that...

no question is dumb... if you don't know, you don't know. Now you know. And I happen to LOVE this stuff so get creative and write up an awesome challenge!  (because it is your duty in life to write a story that I want to read.  ;))

I've already started writing mine. Does that make me the first one? Not that I know exactly what direction it is heading at the moment, but it still has a start.  ;D
