    One more question, pertaining specifically to "Hallucinations": Does craziness have to happen? Or can it be a more dramatic piece?

    Wait, I'm still confused. Do we post our story and then send the link by PM or do we PM the story first?

    Post story on Fanfic Boards, PM link!


    EDIT: Drama's fine... it just can't be too long (as per rules!)

    No more than six posts, "pre-saga," a Jedi eats candy and hallucinates. Those are the rules? Done. I'll get to work on that right away.

    Does it have to be candy?

    "pre-saga," a Jedi eats candy

    Doesn't have to be pre-Saga, and doesn't have to be Jedi... ie:Era/Time: (JA, Prequels, InterTrilogy, NJO, etc...)

    and

    (as regards who to PM the link to your story to: The NJO & OT go to InyriForge. I take the JA & PT. Intertrilogy can go to either of us!

    Please correct me if I am wrong on either point, so's I know! THX


    My beta-diva and I are considering entering...

    Nope, Derisa, ur right on both counts.

    If you want, you can use OT era Jedi (Luke, Mara, Corran, etc) or you can use NJO era Jedi (Jaina, Jacen (oooh, that would be so funny), Tahiri, etc) instead of JA/PT characters.

    Post your story on the fanfiction board.

    If your story takes place in the PT/JA, PM a link to it to freak-pudding.

    If it takes place in the OT/Bantam/NJO era, PM a link to me.

    Note to anyone who has sent me a link:

    I am so sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet. I had something come up in RL and things were a little tense this weekend. Now that I'm home, they're going a little better, but I'm not expecting things to go back to normal until Thursday-ish. I haven't forgotten about you. Please forgive the delay. I promise to be caught up with everything by the end of the weekend.

    As of right now, I've received two entries for the non-PT stories. One about Anakin Solo, one about Pash Cracken. Is there anyone who has sent me something I didn't receive?

    If our fic-lets have to be done by the end of March, does that mean a new challenge will be posted... (*checks calendar...*) Tuesday?

    I still have only received two fics:
    -One about Anakin Solo, R2, and 3PO
    -One about Pash Cracken

    If anyone wrote a OT-NJO era fic and I haven't received it, please let me know ASAP, as I will be doing the whole "Read, Review" thing this weekend.

    Are freak-pudding and InyriForge going to post their opinions on the stories themselves, or just a link here on this thread??

    *hopes that they post on the stories...*

    I'm joining. Also, does the quote have to be just a couple lines? I'm thinking of using Sam's speech at the end of TTT.

    If you keep them short, is there a limit to how many quotes you can use? I'm up to three... Shakespeare, C.S. Lewis, and Fox Mulder... ;)

    freak-pudding: Hey! Are you feeling any better? :)
    That was a really cool little challenge!! :D
    Okay, I've already got my quotes decided. Now I just have a little question, we can use any genre we want, right? So is this is kind of a free challenge, right? We can pick the character we want, timeframe, genre, and quote. Am I correct on this? Just checking. ;)

    All I have to say to the replies is:

    YES YES YES YES!!!





    This is a completely free challenge. You may use whatever dialog you want and how much you want, just make sure to tell me what it is & where it is, okay? The piece still has to be Star Wars & your own creation. Must also follow the other rules as well. I've decided to make this one fun & easy in hopes that it'll attract more people...



    Hey, tell all of your ff writer friends about this. I want to have a lot of stories entered!
