Many fandoms have challenges with fan fics so why not one here.
In fan fiction there is a form of a fic called a drabble. A drabble is a 100 word fic, no more and no less. Might sound easy but when you start to write one it's not as easy as it seems.
So the challenge would be to write a drabble (100 words), a drabble and a half (150 words) or a double drabble (200 words).
Here's an example of a "Prison Break" drabble that I wrote with the prompt of: promise to use it if I buy it.
Shampoo
“Shampoo? Michael, have you gone crazy?” With that Abruzzi turned quickly around and started to walk away.
Pointing in the direction of the others waiting outside Michael explained, “It’s not me, it’s them. If the plane had been waiting….”
“This is all over the plane. ALL of you have gone mad.” Mumbling Abruzzi continued, “Freedom and they go batty and I’m stuck with them or no info on Fibonacci.”
“What’s the big deal? You use it, they’ll be happy and we can keep running. Don’t use it …..”
“Fine, get it”
“You promise to use it if I buy it?”
So anyone up for a challenge? If you use Microsoft Word it does all the counting for you.

Was thinking maybe this time no prompts. Or the other idea is for someone who has no plan on writing to come with a few prompts. The fic that I listed there had been about 8 or 9 different prompts to choose from.
I plan on challenging myself and if I come up with the prompts don't feel that's fair.
If anyone comes up with prompts (they can be just a few words) you need to be able to use them with all of the characters from the show and not just one character.
