Write it Wrong March Challenge. Rules? Okay maybe Anti-rules? Can be found: here. (password: vista)
example of some of the 'rules'
1) Pieces must be no more than 1k words.
2) Submit your pieces to me via PM by March 31 and I'll post them all in one big fat thread on April 1, with author names removed. You can vote for winners, or not, who cares, it's the 90s.
And here are the anti-rules for this challenge:
1) Write what you don't know. Write about something you're embarrassingly ignorant about and make up the details. No research. Just make shit up.
2) You may use 5 periods. Use them wisely. There are no restrictions on any other marks of punctuation.
3) Open with weather.
4) You may not use "said" as a dialogue tag- you must use adverbs.
....If any 1 of the 4 anti-rules prove too difficult, you may skip that one rule, but please put a little note at the beginning of your piece to tell us which rule you've decided to ignore. Invite others, share this around, and have fun!
