This is a bit late, but we finally bring you the challenge for the month of August! ^_^
The challenge is actually
riisha and
cea_chan's idea (the title is also
riisha's idea), as mentioned
here. Their story (
Conversations in Idleness) is also a pretty good example for this particular challenge.
So on to the rules!
1. Write a story made up of dialogue only.
No descriptions, narrations, or anything else. Just dialogue. Script-type stories also do not count, because showing who is talking without saying it outright is part of the
challenge, actually. ^^
2. Extra credit goes to those who will be able to write a story for the challenge involving more than two people talking.
3. Extra credit also goes to those who will be able to write a story with scenes that are really hard to do if you have to do it entirely in dialogue.
For example, a fight scene...or a lemon scene. XD (Or if you have any other suggestions for scenes like that, just say so.)
4. The usual word minimum for the community applies: 500 words.
If you're going to find that difficult because of the different format for the challenge, post a comment again and maybe we can work something out as a compromise. ^_^
*I have decided that "extra credit" will be awarded sometime in December, as part of the community's holiday activity. So wait for that. ^_^ For now, though, you will all have a special mention in the review after the challenge is done.
And that's it!
Comment now to sign up. ^_^
Deadline: September 6, 2008.
And as usual, the challenge is open to non-members, so keep shamelessly plugging, hehe!
