Welcome to week sixty-three of our quest. You know what's special about this week? Er...neither do I. Carry on.

Your challenge this week is to put a fantasy or historical fiction character in a present-day setting (500+ word short story/excerpt). Bonus of two points if you make a new character to do it with.

As always...



If this is your first time on one of these quests, you'll need to see the initiation pamphlet.

Also, I would like to remind everyone that any weekly challenge pieces that are posted on the forum will be eligible to be featured in our newsletter. Please post a link in this thread if you would like it to be considered.

*wants to do weekly challenge, but has no personal goal *

I'm pretty sure you can do just the weekly challenge. I don't think you need to do a personal goal.

Yup.

Well, if it is allowed I will do the challenge.

Of course it's allowed. You can just do the challenge, or do the challenge and a personal goal, or just a personal goal.

This might force me to write a story. I need to write a short story for my collection and Eleutheria's contest; and it has to have a female character. I need motivation... maybe I'll actually succeed this week...

Weekly Challenge Completed with a New Character for the Bonus Points. To do this multiple times, do you only get points if you do it with three different people, or does writing a story three times the wordcount count as well? (I got carried away. ) If the latter counts, mine was over 1,500 words, but if not that's okay.

I posted what I wrote for the weekly challenge here if anyone's interested.

Oh, right...I did a new character as well. But I suppose it's too late to report that.

Oops. Me, too, Juliet.

Aratrea, the post says 500+ words. I know mine is quite a bit longer than 500 words, too.

*facepalm* I forgot as well! I made a new character. And mine is around 1,000 words.

And look who forgot to make the new thread... =P

I'd like if you did post it.


Katharina is correct that it only counts for doing it once--still, great job! You got lots of writing done.

Awesome! *opens to read later*




Great job everyone. I'm sorry I forgot to do this yesterday... You have until midnight Tuesday to make your goals--you'll just have less time to do them in if you wait that long to make them.

Scoreboard.
