Look, Sam, we can write our own!

  The Challenge

The basic premise is to take a phrase, Stargate SG-1, for example and use each letter as the start of consecutive paragraphs. This should be a complete story, wrapped up by the last letter of the word/phrase. 

*example* 

"Sam!" Daniel called, "Can you come over here, please?" 

"Totally!" 

Write ficlets for the team.

Although Sam's demeanor *was* usually quite pleasant, Daniel did a double take at the Valley Girl lilt to her tone. Sam had a goofy grin on her face and there seemed to be no reason for it, at least none that he could devise. It was quite possible he had been a little too absorbed in his work to notice. 

Etc, etc... 

*example over* 

Now, I know this is technically kind of a writing challenge, but I think *anyone* and *everyone* could give it a shot! I don't want anyone who doesn't typically write fic to think they can't respond. In fact, it's encouraged. See what you come up with - you (and we!) could be very pleasantly surprised. :D 

   
  Another Example:
Brynn - Brynn wrote a poem from the original example - Stargate SG-1

Staring at the
Television, week after week,
Absently
Remembering when our team was
Great, when they
All seemed to care about each other, and the
Team was the most important part of the show
Every week.
Sadly, I sometimes miss these aspects of this
Great show, and wonder if we will have just
1 more episode centering on the team, before it changes forever next year.

 

The gate can go other places!

Challenges for all!

 

Please note:  these challenges are designed to spark creativity, not perfection.
