Title: February picture-less challenge
Post by: mare on February 01, 2008, 05:49:37 AM: Sorry, guys no picture because there really isn't one I can find that would fit the actual challenge I have for you this month.

It's very simple...

You can blame some of the talk in the debate section for this one lol

Create a scene between one of the boys and a girl.

Because we are dealing with a scene more so than a story you can write more than one but if you do, the boy has to change.

This scene should contain:

At least one reference to sex but still remain at least pg13.
An odd quirk
The word groundhog ;) <-- yes i'm dead serious lol
and some of you with your minds deep in the gutter, the groundhog doesn't have to be the odd quirk someone has lmao
Dialogue
Female cannot be named after you! for the love of God people lol

:) have fun and i'll try my best to read this but i'm not promising you anything on this one. lol

Female lead snorts when she laughs but it's really quite charming lol or she carries around a necklace of chicken feet that is both odd, and interesting

Post by: nicksgal on February 01, 2008, 05:26:12 PM: You know, the first chapter of my fluffy romance actually has all of that, except for the groundhog. lol

Post by: nicksgal on February 01, 2008, 07:08:21 PM: Yet more proof that there's way too much romance. lol

Post by: mare on February 01, 2008, 07:17:59 PM: LOL
Title: Re: February picture-less challenge
Post by: nicksgal on February 01, 2008, 07:24:31 PM: Make a stipulation next time that there's no female characters or romance allowed. lol

Post by: MonkeyAbu on February 01, 2008, 07:47:29 PM: Tsk tsk! *wags finger* You should have been paying attention! Then again, I really shouldn't be talking because I used to do that all the time. Or I'd be lost in my world of thinking up ideas the whole time. My friend and I once planned a whole story during German class one day back in 10th grade. LoL. Good for you though! ;)

Ooh, would having her own vocabulary be considered an odd quirk? (For example, saying "spazghetti" instead of "spaghetti".) If that is a quirk, then my family is the quirkiest of quirky.
Title: Re: February picture-less challenge
Post by: mare on February 05, 2008, 05:16:42 AM: yes having your own vocabulary would be quirky lol

and nope, I certainly didn't say you couldn't name the character after me, although i'm saying it now lol :P

Title: Re: February picture-less challenge
Post by: mare on February 05, 2008, 05:08:36 PM: ooh lol I guess I put my gopher dream in there. They were in the car singing High Hopes and I was driving.
Title: Re: February picture-less challenge
Post by: nicksgal on February 05, 2008, 09:54:47 PM: ROFLMAO! Cute little gophers. Where were you driving them to?

Jeez, Mare, you make romance writers sound like heathens or pansy-asses (in the words of Dean lol). Just for that, I won't write it. So there. *stomps off to corner and pouts*

lol I actually didn't see this for some reason, but maybe I will. And maybe it won't be a romance. *hatches evil plots*
Title: Re: February picture-less challenge
Post by: mare on February 10, 2008, 06:29:19 AM: LOL heathens? Aww now I feel like I need to apologize. I didn't mean to make everyone sound like pansy asses although I do enjoy the actual term pansy ass. It kind of makes me giggle.

I just meant this seems to be such a popular and big deal to so many people who write fanfic, i'm just surprised no one has really jumped at this challenge. I mean there were pages and pages of debates on this topic. lol That is all I meant.
Title: Re: February picture-less challenge
Post by: starbeamz on February 10, 2008, 08:40:33 PM: LOL pansy ass makes me giggle too. For some reason, I see lots of flowers waving around with little butts in the middle lol

Anyway, I wrote up this story in fifteen minutes, and it was ridiculously easy lol Mare, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with this one, so I suggest you check it out lol (I promise, it won't hurt!)

Post by: starbeamz on February 11, 2008, 03:50:35 PM: *sighs sadly* It's February 11th and there are only two of these challenge stories written, and they've barely gotten any reads...that's rather depressing because I think Sakabelle's is angstily good and I used the one, the only (not dead just resigned from the group) KEVIN! *gasp*

Anyway, I think more people should write this one because it's super easy and fun to write and you don't even have to use romance *gasp* No, Sarah, how is it possible that you (the crazy romance writer) didn't write a single romantic theme in this one?! See, people...you should go write one, too.

End shameless plug of this challenge (and apparently myself :P).

Post by: Rose on February 14, 2008, 03:41:03 PM: Very short, and not my best (in my opinion) but I tried a different spin on it.
