Weekly Challenge #248: Write a scene in a story that includes the best possible thing that could happen.

Directions:
1. Post on the challenge thread, declaring the goals you have committed to. This must be done before midnight on Monday.
2. When you have finished your goals, post on the challenge thread again, stating what goals you have completed, how many times you have completed them, and whether any of them were combined.
3. At midnight on Saturday you are not allowed to report any more finished goals, and the challenge is over.


Rules:
1. You can repeat the weekly challenges, and get more points, but if you repeat your own personal goal, you will not get extra points.
2. The organizer has the right to veto any personal goal that seems too easy (i.e. writing a sentence).


Points:
You can earn points in these ways:
1. completing the weekly challenge
2. repeating the weekly challenge
3. completing your personal goal
4. combining your personal goal and the weekly challenge

Side note, every time I look at the scoreboard, I still get a kick out of Wolf's first comment. And neck and neck and neck... :rofl:

...the best thing? D: Somehow that sounds harder than last week's goal. *frowns and drums fingers slowly in a contemplating manner* However, if a challenge weren't a challenge, what would it be? *grasps the hilt of sword with one hand while saluting Miss Elizabeth with the other* I accept the challenge, m'lady.

Personal goal #1: 2,000 words

Personal goal #2: Write two pages of "A Plea from Bangkok." (Short story that's probably going to be less than five pages.)

Timezone: EST

I'm tempted to do the weekly challenge, but I'm starting a new book and have no idea what the best thing is. And I have a super busy week because we're preparing for a two week holiday.

Personal Goal: Get my 'session' for the Indie E-Con done and write another blogpost or three.

Isn't "Bruce Almighty" all about getting everything you want?
I also remember an episode of the Twilight Zone about a man who just wanted to read books, and suddenly finds himself the only person on the earth (no spoilers).

Personal goal finished! It didn't need a lot of edits from the original draft, but I managed to cut about 1,000 words from it, and spent several hours figuring out realistic titles and peerage. >.>
