Coming soon …

The first ever “Fox-y-redEva Story Challenge”.

Here’s what I propose.

The one and only ravishing redhead redEva will post a single picture in this thread.

Authors will “sign up” to write a story based on the picture, by answering this thread with a “count me in” message – (Please, save the story for your entry.)

There are only 3 rules:

1. The story MUST be based on the picture.
2. The story MUST have as its title: “The Picture: <<your title goes here>>”
3. ALL entries MUST be submitted to Jinn no later than October 31, 2003.

I will ask three others to join me as “judges” – we will each review the entries, and post our reviews.

The prize: well, I guess it’s the everlasting admiration of your peers …

Whaddya think, everyone? Are you up to the challenge?


The idea stems from an exercise I had to do way back in the seventh decade of the last century ... while working toward a University degree I took a creative writing course, just for fun. Easy credit, right? LOL. Anyway, one of the exercises was just this: the entire class was given a picture and a deadline. We had to write a story based on that picture. It was a challenging and fascinating experience, which contributed to my pursuing a career as a word prostitute, uh, commercial writer.

So sharpen up your keyboards, boys and girls, this could be fun!
