The CM Story Challenge

The Rules of the Challenge!

1. All entries must make use of EVERY word from the CM Dictionary

2. All entries should be around 500 words (give or take 100.. just don't write the Dead Sea Scrolls here..)

3. All entries must be submitted in this thread by midnight on Sunday, April 17th, 2005.

4. One entry per person.


Once April 17th arrives and all the entries are submitted, this first post shall be edited into a poll and the voting on the best story will begin. I will also give the voting one week, making April 24th the end date for voting.

If anyone has any problems or thinks the deadlines should be extended, then speak now or forever hold your peace (or something...)

ok, so, any ideas on some sort of length limit? i don't know what the limit is per post on the CM, but i'd like to have all entries just in one post.

That's a neat idea. I'm going to relocate this to the Undress Your Soul forum where it ties in a little better.
