Thread: Can we please?

    Can we please?

    Make a league for story writing? It would be awesome, and I'm sure quite a few people would participate. I think I could run this and make it successful, I mean, I'll personally recruit people from here and other sites to participate.

    My idea for running this off the top of my head would be to make it a flash fiction competition. Flash fiction can be anywhere from 75 - 1000 words, but it's generally 100 words or less and that is how i'd run the league. I'll make the season length fairly short, more so mini-seasons and take a few months break in between. I'd say 8 weeks then a playoff. But if more people get interested I'd definetly lengthen it.

    Anyway, just an idea, and it'd be awesome if someone would do this.. even as a subforum or something.

    If need be I can ask people who are interested to stop by this thread and say so, but please don't write this idea off immediately because i'm sure there would be alot of people interested in this.

    A story under 100 words really isn't much at all..Pretty short.

    And on the contrary, if it's long then no one will bother reading them

    @ cas - that's the purpose of it though. To see what you can create in as little amount of words as possible.

    @ tim - idk, I suppose starting off as many as possible.

    @ fallen - Let's be honest, the short story forum is stories ranging from 5,000 - 10,000 words. We don't have many writer's here, thus not much activity. Basically everybody on the site would be willing to read a hundred words, and really it wouldn't take much time to write. Idk, just think it would be a good idea, and probally would be active.

    a hundred words isn't even a decently descriptive story. :hosea:

    the theory of cause and effect is flawed,
    we expect the outcome to mirror the struggle, that's wrong.
