ATTENTION! Calling all Writers! - A 100 Theme Writing Challenge interest thread

[x]  
:icondarknessversuslight:
Well, there's a lot of theme challenges around for artists, and I noticed a lack of anything similiar for the writing community - so I've started my own.

As a challenge, there are no time limits - you can take as long as you want to try and complete it. There's no prizes either, just the satisfaction of knowing you completed the challenge.

If you're interested, please read on - If not, well, thanks for checking this out anyway.

The Rules
1. Write 100 pieces of prose and/or poetry using each of the themes below.
2. For each piece to count, there must be ONE theme that is focused upon in each piece.
3. The writing can be of any style - fanfiction, drabble, poetry, song, etc - doesn't matter, so long as it's written.
4. It MUST be your own work - No plagiarism. Where's the fun in copying from others?
5. Your work must be RECENT - please don't use something you wrote ages ago.
6. When each piece is posted, please mention that it has been written for this challenge in your comments section.
7. This challenge isn't only for deviantart - Post it anywhere! Please, just mention who you got the idea from, especially if you wish to use the themes listed below.

Although it isn't necessary, I recommend having a journal post reserved to keep track of your progress. Also, if you decide to try this challenge, please let me know in a note or comment. I'd love to be able to have links to all the challengers!

As mentioned, I want to keep a progress report on all challengers, so if you decide to do this challenge, and your friends get interested, please don't forget to direct them to me, :icondarknessversuslight:, so I can add them to the progress list. Also, watching my journal is a very good idea, as I will post any updates there.

Questions? Comments? Drop me a note or comment, and I'll do my best to answer! Now, on to the list!

Some people cal me crazy, I prefer the term sanity challenged.

To dream a dream, to make a wish, to hold a star in the palm of your hand, to be able to fall asleep inches away from the moon, to be able to have all this for real is simple. Just believe.
:iconschroeder98:
I would love to take a shot at this. I'm going to wait until my current work schedule calms down, decide what I want to write and then revisit this post.
:icondarknessversuslight:
Great! ^^ I'll add you to the Progress list during my next update.

New account to anyone.
:icondarknessversuslight:
I am aware of this, but after having viewed a couple of these lists, I decided I'd try and make one that's more specifically directed to writers.

Despite this, I seem to be getting the attention of some visual artists as well - they seem to like my themes better. I'm certainly not going to complain. ^^ It's great that people are interested in giving this ago.
