Short story clutches/contests!

Silver Midnight · Post by **Silver Midnight** » Sat Oct 13, 2007 7:52 pm

If I ran a few clutches, quick like, in the form of a sort of contest, would anyone be interested? It's supposed to be a hint of a challenge, such as "Ten word story" or "Five-hundred word story" according to a given theme.

I promise all the images will be nice. And it will be low focus for me, but I can give out some of the critters I've been doodling.

Now that, I'd be interested in. sometimes it's easier to write with a theme or prompt like that. (And, well, dragons! Sil-dragons! Can't go wrong. ^^)

If I can keep my inspiration level up I'd be interested...

*agrees with Kitsuneko* Sil-dragons!

Yes please

I'm being very wordy in my RPG book right now. Words = good

Sildragons = better!

I'd be interested myself and it is better to write out a story with a theme in mind. ^_^

The trick is that it won't be allowed to be any longer than the specified amount of words, if that round has a specified amount.

Could it be less? Or does it have to hit the mark on the dot?

It can be less.

Just not over the limit. Some of these may be difficult! Depends on what you dream up. *laughs*

I'm good to go on that

I've actually been doing haiku on the City of Heroes forums heh.

I like shortness. The muses only try to go long anymore. Restricting them is good. XD

I'm liking the sound of that, too! :D

Count me in!

Alright, once I get a fully usable copy of Photoshop I'll do up the first clutch. Something I've been wanting to do for a while, at least as far as the dragon type.

I don't think I've ever had problems with stories getting too long :p Or I can just do what Cyan does: *wham* magically they were transported to ... lol ^^

This is now up in the "Giveaways" forum as round one.

Trust me, guys. The first round dragons are really cool.
