Challenge #4

The Rules: *please see the site main page for any extra information on rules.*

1.Everyone is allowed to participate.
2.You will have until Saturday to write your piece.
3.IF you write a piece and submit it to me you MUST critique next week. No exceptions.
4.When you've written your piece please PM me a link to it.
5.Next week I'll assign everyone who has written a piece someone else's to critique.
6.Have fun!
7.No challenge element is set in stone, but don't bend it TOO much.
8. Can be written for ANY fandom you so choose, so have fun with it!

The Challenge: (My roommate came up with it and she doesn't even write fanfiction. Be warned.)
1.Topic: Must be some sort of x-over. (Interpret as you will.)
2.Must be: 3,500 words or fewer.
3.Must include: music by Phoebe Buffay.
4.Must be rated MA or lower. *This is a dramatic change from the rules of the last challenge. Please include a warning with the PM if you write MA material.
5.Must include the line “there's a bumble bee in my jacket [coat, shirt, shorts, shoe, sock etc].”

Alternate Challenge:
1.Topic: Summertime.
2.Must be: 1,000-8,000 words in length (can be multiple chapters).
3.Must Include: The film “Iron Man” that's still in theatres now.
4.Must be rated: MA or lower. Please PM a warning to me if it is MA.
5.Must Include the line: “I'm really starting to adjust to...”

Please everyone remember that you only have a week to write your piece. I personally think this is the hardest challenge we've had to date, buuut it could be fun. That's why I've offered the alternate challenge not that it's any easier.. Please only pick one to write for.

LOL. Tell your roommate she's awesome. :lol:

It is very challenging (both of them) which is going to be quite interesting. I'm definitely in--although I'll probably be more inclined to utilize the second challenge. Just because I don't have any ideas using that line from the first challenge that has to be put in. :p And I love 'Iron Man'. ;)

I think I'm doing the 2nd challenge too. The only problem is with the "Summertime" theme. Ugh. I suck.

Brittney's is suuuuuper hard.

I just saw your post about Iron Man Geni, I happen to have loved that movie too!

It was a super neat one.

I love challenge time, too! But I don't know if I'm going to make it for this one--other obigations have me pretty busy this week. Then again, I think that every time we have a challenge and I usually end up with something, so I guess we'll see.

I'm really going to try and write something this week. I really want to. But my job has me working 12 to 8, and I usually sleep until 10. And go to bed late, as usual. But I have so much to do. And I actually have a life, unfortunately! Maybe y'all will get a Gilmore Girls fic, but I'm highly doubting it. Sorry.

I'm going to double post now because I can.


How's everyone doing? So far I know of only two stories that have been finished.

I'm just interested in an update.

I feel so darn bad that I can't write at the moment, but since I got off work early, I'll work my butt off to try and write something, since I've got, like, a bajillion ideas rolling around in my head. What I need from y'all is help on which fandom I'm writing for:

Gilmore Girls
Bones

I have part of a GG fic started, so be mindful of that little fact. And the one where I've got a Bones... you know what, I'm writing Gilmore Girls. If y'all have something to say, PM me, k? BYE!

I've got a plot down and I'm three pages into my story. However, I have some things to get done today so I'll probably finish it later tonight.

And it's Supernatural so a clip from the show for the person who has to critique might be a good idea to include. I'm not sure if everyone is familiar with it. (I can provide the clip. Actually, maybe two small clips. LOL)

I'm *nearly* done. Bearing in mind I wrote most of mine whilst under the influence of copius amounts of tequila (I was editing it this morning and the spelling was atrocious), I feel quite sorry for the person who has to critique it. It's NCIS though, again, it's all I can seem to write :S

Edit- I'm still nearly done, but I will have it to you by the end of Saturday, I can't work out how to end it :S
