Single Sentence Challenge Promptfest is BACK
Think you can’t write fanfic? Think again, because Sentence!Fest is a fun way to get your feet wet. Basically, the challenge is to tell a complete story using one sentence only.
Sounds easy, but perhaps it is not. How would you tell your story if you only had the space of one sentence? Would you use dialogue? Action? Emotion? Observation? Would it be haunting? Poetic? Sexy? Tragic?
The rules are simple: Tell a story using one sentence. It can be as long as you want it to be, but it must make sense (imaginary points will be deducted). It can be as short as you want it to be, but make those words count. Tell a story that will provoke the imagination of your readers – one they will demand to have the beginning, middle and end of from you – that is the ultimate goal. Here is an example:
Neal and Peter have the sex.
Here is a better one:
When Peter finally opened his eyes, it was to see his lover's rapt face as Neal rode him, the rising sun forming a perfect golden halo around his dark head; his savior, his angel.
Capice?
This particular ‘fest will operate like any other. Take a prompt, fill a prompt, leave a prompt. There are no limits – multiple folks can fill any and all prompts. Use them to craft a narrative if you like, but each entry must convey an entire scene within that narrative. All subject matter is fair game, so RPF/RPS is allowed. This fest is unlocked and opened to everyone who would like to write.
Cuz Sentencefest can be a little overwhelming, it will be co-moderated by myself,
coffeethyme4me and
rabidchild67 .
Prompts will be found in the first comments below - let the games begin.

Date: 2011-11-09 06:19 pm (UTC)"So should I be looking for your cache in a cave somewhere?" Peter asked, as lightly as he could manage, but Neal favored him with a black look.
Peter and Neal - Shine
Date: 2011-11-09 06:39 pm (UTC)Peter watched him put on his hat and fasten the buttons on his jacket, putting that shiny, reflective veneer on, he one that said, "see, this is why I don't seem quite real, I'm not."
Neal/Keller -- Obsession
Date: 2011-11-09 07:05 pm (UTC)The question wasn't how could he -- with Neal there prone, the ropes biting into his wrists, his thighs, his cock -- it was really more how could he not, because when he knelt down and traced Neal's throat with his gun and that long beautiful cock wept at his cold touch, Keller understood that Neal would never surrender, but that he might always, for the rest of their pathetic days, wish that he could.
El/Sara -- after dinner
Neal (P/E/N) – He maybe should’ve rubbed one out in the bathroom first
