The challenge ends November 30th.
There is no word limit for this month's challenge, min or max.
This month there is only one requirement to qualify: somewhere in the story there must be a reference to a gift certificate for sky diving.
All stories for the group are public and will also be seen on the Fn main page.
As per the rules of the group, the winner of the November challenge gets to make the rules for the December challenge, and so it goes, etc, ad infinitum...
Loved your story,John, and I'm not trying to usurp your first place on this--more like I'm trying to ensure it!
The winner of the November Story Challenge is Susan Gibb's "Aliens."
Look for Susan's challenge for December. Thank you to all participants.
Each month a new challenge will be posted to the discussion with rules for the month. This is a public group and all stories written for the challenge will be posted to the Fn main page and then added to the group.
At the end of the month, the story with the most faves wins the challenge.
The winner of the challenge gets to post the rules for the next month's challenge.
In the event of a tie, all tying winners get to post a challenge for the next month, with challenges run simultaneously. The challenger with the most faves, of all the simultaneous challenges for that month, gets to post the rules for the next month's challenge.
And always remember: fiction is not a competitive sport.
