Cam's Note: I hope it's okay to post this challenge here. If not then my apologies.
Halloween Challenge:
Halloween is a few weeks away and we thought we would kick it off with some awesome stargazer stories. Where do we get these stories from? Well here's where you guys come in. *smiles innocently* We're challenging all of you to participate in our second annual Forget Me Not Halloween challenge.
Instead of one challenge there will be a choice between two so if Halloween isn't your thing then we have something else for you to sink your teeth in. Curious yet? You are? Awesome. All participants will get a siggie and a stargazer wallpaper.
Challenge #1: Around the campfire tales
*Minimum word count: 250
*Rating: No higher than Mature
*Coupling: can include the other characters but must have A/I although the story doesn't necessarily have to heavily focus on them
*AU is welcome
*All stories must be posted by Halloween
*please provide us with a link if you post a story so we can run off and read it (lol)
*Story must include
~someone lost in the woods
~everyone around the campfire
~someone going trick or treating
~one of the humans accidentally eating chocolate candy with Tabasco sauce in it
~someone dressed as the toothfairy
~"take me to your leader"
~"oh look it's wicked witch of the west"
~"Huh? Who goes there?"
~ "Dude, your marshmallow is on fire."
~"Yeah I'll just fly us out of here on my magic carpet."
Challenge #2: Song of my heart
This challenge is a bit different as this time we ask you to choose one of the songs below. Either write a story based on the song or write whatever inspires you b/c of the song. Cool? Interested? Have fun with it and here's a quick rundown of the rules for this challenge.
Minimum words required: 250
Rating: No higher than mature
Can take place whenever…get creative with it (i.e. can take place in a dream if you want)
Remember to have fun and happy writing.
All stories must be posted on Halloween Day and no later. If you participate please post a link so we can all rush over and read. Hey we love stargazers stories just as much as you do if not more.
*If you need the lyrics you can find them in the file section of Forget Me Not or just google it.
