Here's where you can ask any questions, make suggestions for future prompts, request community affiliation or ask to pimp your community or fest.

Please be patient if you don't get an immediate reply - I'm sole owner and mod at present, and I'm taking part in a lot of other writing challenges, plus I do need to sleep occasionally ;)

Anyone interested in becoming a co-mod, please leave a comment below.

Also, anyone who would be interested in creating a community icon or two, please reply below, because I really do need something to pretty the place up! I'd like a general community icon and a community mod icon, I think.

Tag requests should go on the Tag Requests post.

continuous story through drabble challenges?

[squelettique]

I get the feeling that this might not be possible but I figured I'd ask anyway.

I just had the idea of writing multiple drabbles for multiple challenges as one continuous story? For example I'm doing some of the prompts for amnesty week and the first drabble I wrote is 100 words long and horrifically incomplete theme/plot-wise.

Aka: I would write a drabble for one prompt, 100 words, then move onto another prompt and another 100 words but 'continue on' the plot or from even the same scene so to speak. That's probably getting outside of the spirit of a drabble but again, I thought I'd ask what you thought just in case haha. Even if this might only be a thing for amnesty or for a different challenge community altogether.

I don't even know if I'd post one of these, if I even did it, but again, thought I'd ask. <3

Sounds like an awesome idea to me! Go ahead, although you might like to put links in pointing the way to the next 'chapter' so people can follow the story along and not have to go searching for the next part. Double drabbles (200 words) are also allowed, so you can write longer chapters if you want.

I believe there's one author who's been doing something similar from the start, continuing her story with each new prompt.

I just post the prompts, how people use them is up to each writer to decide.

Have fun!

You're welcome! I want everybody to have fun writing here, so I try to keep things as relaxed as possible, and provide plenty of leeway for creativity. Telling stories is what this community, and my other one, are all about.

Go forth and write!
