BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Journal Entry: Fri Nov 17, 2006, 9:53 AM
Hello lovlies. ~TwoSteps-FourLetters taking a break from TWL so the reigns have been handed back to little ol' me (i.e. ~Trouserpress).

Firstly, let's take a look at the residue left on the windowsill of the last task. We got a whole three submissions for it! Find them here: [link] here: [link] and here: [link]

Kudos to ~FRBRkitty for being the only "non-management" member to get off their arse and submit something.

Beeeeearing that in mind, here's what I want you all to do next. It ought to take you no time at all. DO IT.


1. Get a dictionary.
2. Flip it open and find a word at random.
3. Write down its definition.
4. Flip to another page and find a new word.
5. Write down the WORD at the top of the definition you found beforehand.
6. Repeat this process at least five times.
7. Write a short prose piece or poem (no more than 836 words) which uses ALL the newly-defined words you've generated and submit it alongside your remixed dictionary.
8. Send me the results in a note.


I hope we get at least five submissions for this one. I'm suuuure we will, won't we?

Hooray for words! Hooray for you lot! Hooray for That Writing Lark!

Yours etc,

This sounds like a wonderfully odd writing challenge group, and I'd be interested in taking part! Expect a few things... at some point... eventually.

i'd say we've gone past mid-march...any more submissions? My piece, when submitted, got a spectacular 1 comment, even though i thought it was good, so i'd really like to see what everyone else has done (and, of course, have people see what i've done). But if there's only been two submissions....

Ooh, another contest! I wrote a piece for the first one but submitted it too late; I'll see if I can overcome my procrastination to make it on time for this one.

To join, all you have to do is add the group to your friends list :+devwatch: and submit your piece before the deadline (which is roughly 2 weeks today).

You're more than welcome to join! As long as you can put one word next to another you're qualified to take part IMO.

Hey, can I join? My writing skills are at 0 but I think this could help me improve, and be a lot of fun, although even ths 1st task looks hard!
