100 Words from a Picture
Overview
This will be a “simple” writing competition to get everyone’s creative juices flowing. Over the course of the competition, everyone will submit drabbles to best represent the picture prompts given. A drabble for this competition will be limited to 100 words not including the title.
This competition will run for 10 weeks with a single deadline at the end. Judging will be on the entire body of work submitted. Every other week one picture will be posted. For each picture, submit an original drabble. Be creative; what does the picture make you think?
100 words is a hard limit – do not go over. This is a competition designed to encourage brevity. There will be a total of 5 pictures for a total of 5 stories. All stories must be submitted by the deadline of October 3rd. Judging will begin on October 4th and results will be posted by October 17th. Each story will be worth up to 20 points for a max total score possible of 100. By setting one deadline and judging on the entire submission of 5 stories, participants will have flexibility to work around school, work, and real life. As an option, you may include an image with the story; however, this will not count in judging. If you include an image, it must be taken in game.

• Week 1 // Post July 25th
• Week 3 // Post August 8th
• Week 5 // Post August 22nd
• Week 7 // Post September 5th

Re: 100 Words from a Picture
I'm not quite sure i get it, so from this first prompt, 5 different stories will emerge? Then following the next prompt, the next 5 stories will continue using the same plot as before?
Thanks for the Siggy Thai!

Re: 100 Words from a Picture
For each prompt write a 100 word story. There will be 5 prompts so when it is over, you will have written 5 stories - 1 for each prompt. The prompts are not connected to each other.

Summer Afternoon
I didn't participate in the previous rounds, but I'm just doing this for fun and inspiration. Is that alright?

Re: 100 Words from a Picture
Absolutely. And it is still possible to do the earlier rounds. There isn't a deadline for the rounds. So jump right on in.
Re: 100 Words from a Picture
Oh, wonderful! I'll get cracking on the other rounds then. Maybe I'll hack out something of worth!Teresa wrote:Absolutely. And it is still possible to do the earlier rounds. There isn't a deadline for the rounds. So jump right on in.

Re: 100 Words from a Picture
It is, and I apologize. School started and six writing classes have fried my brain. I will get the rest of the prompts posted this afternoon.
