Challengers of the Unknown

Yes, I stole the title from a song. I couldn’t help it. I love it. It reminds me of days spent with my little brother pretending a refrigerator box was a rocket, pirate ship, raft… whatever.

Sorry, flashback… On to the challenges you guys have posted in the last week!

  • A Unique Love Story: Write a love story about a couple not commonly accepted by society. I highly recommend you go rent Love Actually for inspiration. I know, it’s a romantic comedy, but beneath the usual trappings, it’s a really beautiful examination of the different kinds of love we experience in our lives.
  • The Stovohobo Inspirer: Take the Amazing Stovohobo’s story starters and build something new.
  • The 116 Ficlets Challenge: Write about dalmatians or change… or both. Personally, I think dalmatians that turn into firefighters would be cool. Also, a film noir starring them would be funny…

Those are the new ones since I posted my original blog entry. Now, remember, kids, if you want me to blog about your challenge, you need to tag it with “newchallenge” so I can find it.

Oh, and if you want to make me cry, here are a couple good ways to do it:

    But the Amazing Kevin Lawver using “Stovohobo” and “Amazing” in the same sentence? Someone’s been losing sleep.

    Why would we make you want to cry? That seems cruel, like a real fur coat. Yeah, that’s cruel.
