White Collar Single Sentence Challenge II is Now Opened

[elrhiarhodan]

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.

Re: 10 sentences more dragon!Neal sentences, and I think this verse needs a name

I like my wild fantasy AUs, but I know they aren't everybody's cup of tea. I'm glad you stuck with it, though. (I'm always worried when I put Kate into something that I'm going to get swarmed by the Kate-hate brigade. elrhiarhodan's journal is safer in that regard) I at least need to write Moz and probably El finding out, so there will be more.

You know, I really don't get where all this "Kate Hate" comes from. I mean, I don't really care for her that much, since we don't really know her, but what has she actually done? We will probably never know how much of her feelings for Neal were genuine, but, since she willingly visited him for four years in prison... I think I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.
And if her love was genuine, then she basically got killed because she became involved with Neal. Not that I would blame Neal for that, but still, it's kind of sad.

I'm really looking forward to Mozzie finding out :D

Seriously, Kate is a MacGuffin. There isn't a whole lot there to feel one way or the other about, which makes the Kate hate just plain baffling.

Prisons make it miserable on anybody trying to visit, that visiting once a week alone, like you, makes me want to give her the benefit of the doubt. But Peter doesn't like her, she gets in the way of OT3, and Neal does stupid things for her. Therefore she must be eeeevil. *sigh*

It's probably going to be a bit... explosive? Moz doesn't like finding out about conspiracy theories he had no contingency plans for.
