Mare's April Fools challenge
« on: April 02, 2011, 12:55:51 PM »
Hey all!

So this one is pretty easy. Your challenge this month is to write something completely out of the box for you.

For instance, if you write nothing but romance, give us a thriller.

If you write nothing but suspense, show us your softer side.

If you are a bad writer, write something good lol (I keed I keed!)

Just don't be yourself!

:)

~ Write in a genre you are not comfortable with
~ Only a one shot (No more than one chapter)
~ No banners!

That's about it!

Have fun!!

I liked when we did this a few years ago, but did it under an alter ego so people had to guess who wrote what.  That was a fun challenge, and I actually did that one!   We'll see if I can get anything written for this... as always, I make no promises LOL.

I remember that April Fool's one from a few years ago, Julie! It was really fun :) A lot of people participated in that.

I will have to think of something for this one!

Yeah, they did!  That was fun.

I did sci-fi/slash/m-preg for that one, so I don't even know what genre I'd do for this.  Hmm...

LOL I think I've written in every genre these days except for slash. Which no challenge will ever make me touch LOL.

If I can come up with something different for me, I may take a whack at it.

Aww, I think you should write a really steamy slash scene, Rose.  Do a Nick and Howie one!
