Dribs, Drabs & Doggy Tale Rules

[ApolloImperium]

There are two uses for this forum: User posted drabble challenges and AFF's weekly drabble contest.

So here are the basic rules for the AFF weekly challenge!

1. Each week I will post a new writing prompt that needs to be used in some way, shape or form in your story.
2. While the topic will be visible once the weekly news posting goes up, you will not be able to post to the topic until 8am Friday. It will not close at the end of the week, but will stay open in case people decide to take the challenge at a later date.
3. There are now four different word counts to choose from - TwitFic: 140 Characters (Not words, characters ^.^), Drabble: 100 words (No more, no less), FlashFic: Up to 1,000 words, or ShortStory, which is anything over 1000 words.
4. To submit your entry, please post the following information and only this information: Your Pen Name, a link to the story and if it's a TwitFic, Drabble, FlashFic or ShortStory. Also include rating, fandom, pairing and warnings.
5. The Weekly Prompt thread is only to post your story - Any reviews on the stories should be put on the author's stories. Please do not leave commentary in the topic, those posts will be removed.

Basic Rules for User submitted challenges:

1. Please post your prompt in it's own topic
2. Prompts should be applicable to any fandom
3. If you would like to see a specific fandom, pairing, etc, you may place it as a request.
4. As above, please post the following information and only this information: Your Pen Name, a link to the story and if it's a TwitFic, Drabble, FlashFic or ShortStory. Also include rating, fandom, pairing and warnings.

Change for 2013 - word GROUPINGS.

Word groups will be posted, use any or all of them in your submission.

Also, change in time for this. Every two weeks!

Changed for 2014

The weekly challenges are now open ended

There’s now a new forth option for weekly challenges: ShortStory.  Previously, 1000 words was the longest your challenge response could be, but now you can choose “ShortStory” which can be any length you wish over 1000 words.
