What about a remix challenge, where you take a short story someone else wrote and rewrite it to put your own spin on it?  Then they'd have to guess who wrote it based on how it was twisted around.

That sounds like a tricky one, but if people were willing to submit a story and didn't mind it being messed around with, I could see that working.

Yeah, I think it'd have to be based on submissions, to avoid any issues with plagiarism.

LMFAO

I got nothing =( I can't think of anything. I am terrible at this kind of stuff to be honest. I am lucky if I can find something different and original lol.

[RokofAges75]

I'm not good at coming up with the prompts.  I don't know that I'm any good at responding to the prompts either LOL, but since it's summer, I'm willing to try.

I always have a harder time in the summer since the kids are home lol. They keep me busy until they are in bed and even then I dont get on the computer until 10pm or later some nights. When they start school back up the 13th of August I will be able to do more things lol.

but i may have something though...since I am sure most of us love music..why not to a story based completely off a song...not necessarily a BSB song but anything from anyone? seems cheesey but its an idea LOL

[RokofAges75]

LOL I'm a teacher, so it's completely opposite for me.  Those darn kids!

We could maybe use a BSB song as a prompt.  If we could agree on a song that could be taken in a lot of different ways, that would work.  It would be interesting to see how everyone interpreted it according to what they like to write.

[Rose]

I haven't done a BSB song challenge in ages. They've got such a huge catalog of songs now too, so that gives us some wiggle room in what to choose from. The tricky part will be narrowing it down.

[Carter]

just in my backstreet play list alone i have 245 songs lmao...some are of course solo albums and stuff but its still a lot of songs LOL...let me look through my list of songs...and throw some out there

[RokofAges75]

Yeah, we could do a poll like we did with the fairy tales if people want to throw out suggestions.

[Purpura Lipstick]

I like the suggestions of "rewriting" someones story ... or maybe fanfic'ing a fanfic?  I've read a few stories where I'd love to take something from it and make a side story.

But I guess a song fic wouldn't be too bad if we can get some good songs to choose from...

[Carter]

now these are just a few of my absolute favorites..pre tty much songs of theirs I cant live without lol.

Breathe
Dont Wanna Lose You Now
Back To Your Heart
All I Have To Give
Make Believe
Light On *
On Without You *
Rebel *
Satellite *
Shattered
Shape Of My Heart
You Can Let Go
Safest Place To Hide

all the ones with a * are unreleased songs.

and I am sure everyone has different songs tht they like. I  tend to like the slower sappy songs lol.

[mare]

I would only do a song fic if it's "One Phone Call!" lol

[RokofAges75]

LMAO I can imagine how that would go!

I was thinking, instead of trying to narrow it down to one song that everyone agrees upon, what if we vote on a track number, and then you'd have to choose a song that is that track on one of their albums.  So, say, if we voted track #10, Mare could write a story about One Phone Call, Carter could write one about Safest Place to Hide, etc.  Then there would be a little more choice in there, but still limitations.

[mare]

That sounds good. Just let me know what you guys want to do and I'll make a poll with whatever. I think I'm skipping this challenge. I am having a hard enough time writing the story I'm working on now and so far I've been kind of eh about all of the ideas which tells me I'm probably not meant to write one but I'll gladly help  pick a number or whatever you need me to do.

Besides, I already wrote my Nick gets kidnapped by a girl band story and posted it in this thread. LOL
