Challenge #6

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:

1. Must appeal to one of the five senses. Pick one and cater to it while you write.

2. It must be about the end of any type of relationship.

3. Must follow the theme of passion (interpret as you will).

4. Must be a minimum rating of PG 13.

5. Must be Between 500 and 2,500 words.

Haha... with that picture, I think the PG rating is necessary.

Okay, well, you already know I'm in. Although, no doubt I'll complain a lot and moan about not being able to do it, finally getting something out to you like 5 minutes before you assign pieces to critique. Meh, what's new?
Proof-read carefully to see if you any words out.

I'll try to do something for this, but it's less than a fifty fifty chance I'll be able to. Sorry if I don't.

Seriously, I'm finished.

I am not kidding you, and do not hate me for this, but... I'm done. I had a spurt of random inspiration, and this ensued.

My first Law & Order: Special Victims Unit story!

Ho-ly Crap.

Anyway, here is the xxx

Thanks, LLK, for making this such a difficult challenge, because it made it impossible to do something I was used to, and I expanded my horizons to a sixth fandom. WOOO!


Edit: By LLK- Please don't link to challenge fics before the assignment day. Thank you.

I'll give this a shot, but RL has been a bitch the last couple of weeks. We'll see...

I'm back, I'm back, I'm back, I'm back!!

I can do challenge week! Yay!

Uh oh. Now all I have to do is write a story. Eek.

Tehe, should be good fun. And I have to agree with Kazalene: PG with that picture as a max, but the challenge says "minimum rating".

Hm... The places that one could go...

Anyway, I'm back and I'm in.

I forgot to mention, I finished this on Monday. :D

LLK, I emailed you the link. ;)

Just a refresher:



Challenge Week Rules:

1. If you write a fic for the challenge you are obligated to write a critique for the fic you're assigned next week.

2. All challenge fics are due by the Saturday following the day the challenge was posted.

3. Do not post any links to your challenge stories anywhere in the FCG.

4. Private Message or email me a link to your story.

5. You must be an active participant in critique weeks to be allowed to take part in challenges.

Yay! I'm finished. Well, I lie, really. I actually wrote this piece ages ago, but it fit so well, and there's no way I'm going to be able to write a piece that's any good within the next 24 hours, because I'm rather busy, so I apologise for the lack of original story...

But I'll PM it to LLK within the hour!

Looking at LLK's reminder above, I hope you'll let me take part in this challenge even though I haven't critiqued for a couple of weeks due to circumstances beyond my control (i.e. it's not my fault there aren't enough hours in the day! :D )

Anyway, I'm done - last minute as usual! But I'm having trouble posting it onto ff.net. Whenever I try to upload it into document manager a message comes up "an error has occured while processing your request". (Also, last night when I tried to post a new chapter to a fic, it kep telling me that "the webpage cannot be accessed" or something like that.

So... any ideas for what to do with my fic for the challenge if I can't get it posted anywhere? :cry:

Thanks, Jodie.

I guess if all else fails, I can email it to whoever gets "me" to critique, then post it properly when either
a. things start behaving :x or
b. I learn how to do it properly!! :roll:

I too an nearly finished. Expect a PM.
