elrhiarhodan

We're at the Start of Week Two, and over the last 7 days, you've added 153 more sentences to the fest.

I must that I am very proud of everyone who's participated over the last week - I've been an absentee landlord for a few reasons - most of which is that I've been consumed by work and a new fic that's been eating at my brain, leaving no room for much of anything else.  But everyone's played so nicely, and the contributions are terrific. 

Thank you!

We'll try and add all of the prompts that were given in the sentences to the master prompt list today, but I'm adding a bunch of fresh new prompts.  46, to be precise.  Why 46?  Well, you'll see as soon as you check them out.

A few bits of housekeeping:

• The Fest will run as long as you are having fun writing...last time, we went for a full month, and I hope that interest will continue for that long, too.
• Like last time, I will open a new journal entry for the Fest when there are over 10 pages of comments.  It just makes it easier to track and manage.  Of course, there will be internal links and all the prompts will be forwarded to the new pages.
• I hope to do daily updates, but I suspect that there will be days when that isn't possible.  I also hope to be able to comment on all of the fills, too.  If I don't comment, it's because time is a finite quantity, not because I don't love and appreciate each and every gem (and they are).
• If you're keeping track of your own counts and they differ from mine, yours are probably more accurate.  Just let me know, and I'll fix them.

YOU ARE ALL AWESOME.

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.
