Or as I like to call it: A simple plan ;D
Create a story with just two characters only and put them in one of the following settings.
1. In a room playing a game
2. In a car stuck in traffic
3. In an interrogation room
4. At a restaurant
5. Sitting in a movie theater and waiting for the movie to being
6. At a sleepover
Here's the catch (hehe)
One of the characters has to be you!
The other character has to be from one of your stories
The relationship between the characters has to be platonic. (No love interest between the two of you)
No banners!
For this one i'm making a minimum word count. You need at least 1,500 words, but do not exceed 3,000.
This is all about keeping things simple and more of a character study based on Julie's thread in the debate board. :)
This one should be a lot of fun. I'm excited to see what you all come up with!
Enjoy!!

hmm. I like this one Mare! (not that I don't love most of them.) I'll think about what to do. Which character to pick???
-
Cool idea! :)
-
Hey, how come only two people have come in and said something? Shouldn't more of you be coming in here and telling me i'm a genius for coming up with this challenge? I'm waiting! :shrug:
-
i think you are made of win :-*
and don't feel so bad, i think everyone's still hyped up at the Felix Awards thread, which is way better than the Oscars, seriously. I was very entertained! ;D
And I'm hoping to write this challenge.
-
hrmm I didn't hear the word genius in there...but i'll take it! lol
I hope you write the challenge too! :)
-
Mersey! :)
-
genius!
-
Is that better? Of course, I may have been referring to Mersey... :P
-
Well even if you are referring to Mersey, since she's my doppleganger it's just as good! lol
-
This sounds like an interesting challenge... I may have to try it! Not having a working computer at home really blows, though. :'(
-
Mersey! :)
crap. im always here when there's no one around :(
Julie! :) i love your icon :D
MARE'S A GENIUS!! haha...
-

LMAO!!!! :-*
i have a very legit question, so really, im not spamming this thread...much. This challenge...mu st the fic be me as an author and talking to our character or do i write a whole new fic with that character and myself in it? And when i said myself, do i get to be myself or do i get to fictionalize me? i wrote 3 pages worth before i realized i might have totally misinterpreted the challenge.
i should say im sorry if this is confusing you, mare, but im not going to, because you're a genius and therefore, rule of the universe says you are confuse-free.

You should write you as you, but you don't have to be a fanfic author. For instance, if you do the interrogation room you can be a lawyer but it should still be you.
Yay for you writing to your 3rd page. Watch your word count! lol
holy typos! I am really getting bad with those again. Mareish is resurfacing.
-
Julie! :) i love your icon :D
Thanks! :)

yay im on the right track, thank you genius :) 3 pages in and im nowhere near 1000 words. im quite upset with myself!
i miss mareish :(
-
It wouldn't fit the challenge, but it's up to you. lol
-
Okay, got a question! When you say a character from one of your stories along with yourself... do you mean an original character you personally created? It's almost 3am, so please give a little break, LOL.
-
as long as it's a character in your story it doesn't matter. It can be one of the boys for instance.
-
love the new avi mare!
-
me too mare lol
-
Thanks lol
-
I like it too, but I like your new siggy quote even better LOL.
-
Great challenge! I'm not promising to write it though ;)
-
I like it too, but I like your new siggy quote even better LOL.
LOL thanks, I had a good chuckle when I found that one.

-
Awwww I'd say I'd do it but then I'd feel bad when it didn't happen lol.
But I still love you Mare!
-

You got my hopes up for nothing, Mare! :'(
But you reviewed, so there's only one crying smiley instead of a million.

"tumbleweeds"? are you watching Handy Manny too... lol
I started one but then found that 1500 words was a bit of a stretch for my scenario so now I don't think I will have one :(
-
OK, I've just got my internet back after weeks of being without it, so I'm going to attempt to get this done before the end of the month. I've made a start and will see how it goes :)
-
Got 1000 words approx so far, so will hopefully have it posted tomorrow or later on tonight depending on whether I can tear my eyes away from 'How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days' which is on TV right now :)

Here's the link, hope the story isn't too bad!
