Welcome! This week’s challenge is:
Quote Challenge: “Are you familiar with the phrase, ‘famous last words’?"
Looking for that one line that pulls the story together? Look no further! For this challenge, the quote prompt should appear in your story. Easy, right?
(For the art/vid folks, if you can't work in the text and/or the exact line, we'd love to see your interpretation of that quote!)
How does it work?
- A new challenge/prompt will be posted on Wednesday
- Responses should be self-contained stories (no word minimum or limit unless length was specified as part of the challenge) that take place in one chapter (or art/vid if that’s what strikes your fancy). Works can be shared as soon as they’re ready. Post your work at your archive of choice, website, journal, etc. or behind spoiler tags within the thread. (If you want to hold your submission back until the master post, that’s fine too.)
- The challenge closes the following Tuesday at 2100 GMT (that’s 5:00p EDT)
- PM a link to your challenge response to Amara D’Angeli. Tuesday evenings, links to all the responses for each challenge will be collected together into one post for easy navigation.
- OPTIONAL: Post your submission to the AO3 Collection. Here’s the Safe-Link to this week’s challenge (Safe-Links will ensure you’re not spoiled for future challenges).
So…
What do you do if you break the “rules”?
So you didn’t quite hit a word count or you didn’t adhere on a structure challenge. Maybe a setting challenge worked better for you if you interpreted it loosely. Don’t worry! It’s all good. Submit your response anyway. (We totally want to see it!)
Have an idea for a WOS prompt?
Let us know and we’ll put it in the rotation.
