March Challenge

[tamingmods.livejournal.com]

Hello everyone! *waves*

It’s time for our March monthly challenge!

1000+ word Simile challenge. This should be a complete story, rather than a part of a larger piece, however, it can be original or fan fiction.




This month, you choose a simile and that will be the title and theme of your piece. For Example: if you chose the simile 'As Right as Rain' this would be the title of the piece, and you could write about a woman who is finally coming to grips with the loss of a loved one. Or perhaps she has escaped a terrible situation and ends up in a field during a downpour and suddenly feels euphoric and uplifted by her freedom. Other than the title, you don't have to include the simile in your piece.



Entries will need to be received by midnight 31 March. at GMT -12. We’ll issue a closed post as we do with the weekly prompts.

When you post your entry, please tag it for the challenge.

You do not have to be a regularly contributing member of the community to participate. This challenge is optional and open to everyone.

You are allowed to use the monthly challenge in conjunction with any of the weekly prompts this month as long as you follow all the requirements for both. So, for this month, you would:

• Include the weekly prompt in your story
• It would be a stand-alone, short story of 1000 words or more with a simile as the title, and the same simile used as the theme of the piece
• It would be posted by the earlier of the two deadlines (midnight Saturday, or midnight on the 31st).

Good luck everyone!

February Challenge Closed!

[tamingmods.livejournal.com]

The February Present Tense Challenge is Closed.

Entries can be found here.

One of the reasons we chose the format (one-shot) was to encourage concrit. Since we no longer have voting, this is a chance for authors to grow and learn. If you get a chance, please visit the authors who participated this month and leave some feedback.

Note: If you had a contribution and don't see it on the list, it's likely because of a missing tag.

Thank you to everyone who participated, and we'll post banners shortly.

Title: The Cleansing
Prompt: #137 - Bleach
Fandom: None
Warnings: ?  Pointless meanderings, maybe.
Rating: G
Summary:  He wants it all to end.
Notes:  So, this is a first for me.  Not relying on a fandom to fuel a story, that is.  Can I ask you a question/favor?  Does the ambiguous-ness of this work, or does it need *details*?   Concrit is most sincerely welcomed.  :)
