EDITED 31 March 2010 by MMADfan (with Sprinkles blessing!)
I just wanted to take the time to explain my concept for this challenge and I hope you all will read!
The Flash Fic Challenge will consist of a theme and an item that must be included. For example: Someone is moving, include a pin or It's Valentine's Day, include a cucumber. The idea is to take the challenge, write a Charming Roots story between 100 and 300 words in length and post it in the appropriate thread, then post a link to it in a new post here under the Flash Fic Challenge area.
Please note the following changes: The Filius & Pomona FlashFic Challenge is now a relay-race-type challenge. Whoever responds to the challenge first gets to pick up the challenge and run with it -- in other words, post the response and then post a new challenge. After that, anyone, of course, may still write a story in response to an old challenge, but only by picking up the new challenge can they "pass the baton" by posting the next challenge.
Also, please post your story to the appropriate area of the board (Fluff, Drama, Angst, Romance, etc.), and post a link to the story in the challenge subboard.
If after a certain amount of time (yet to be determined!), a challenge has not been picked up, a new challenge will be issued, but the old one will remain open, so the next responder has two challenges to choose from. (That's the plan now. :-) ) We'd like to keep things fresh and moving along!
[end edit! ]
Please post a comment here letting me know you read this, before entering a challenge, and also if you have any questions. I hope this made sense. it's all rumbling about in my head at the moment, but once we play a round we will figure out how it works, I hope!
