September challenge
« on: September 01, 2007, 07:35:05 AM »
We're back to picture challenges lol

I know it doesn't go with our featured story really (I did pick Nick though since the story is Nick-centric)

But I want you to create a scene or ficlet this time around. So it doesn't have to be very long at all, in fact I would say for this one, try not to go over 1,000 words.

All you have to do is explain what is happening in this picture. You can use first person or third person but it can't be longer than 1,000 words.

Good luck :)

the Nair in the shampoo bottle and the itching powder just reminded me of the epi from season one, Hell House, where Dean and Sam play practical jokes on each other LOL the story just reminded me of the jokes in that epi

I don't worry about the length as much, most of my responses have been fairly short, but I do prefer having a picture to write about. For me it sparks the imagination more. But I think they've all had pictures except for last month right? And I still plan on posting my response to last month's challenge, I just didn't have the chance to finish it. Last month was really crappy for me and I only got about half done with it. For some reason my Baylee stories always take me forever.
