Hello, Dokuga!
In a fit of pure genius, I have thought of a fun little challenge that I think many of us will like.
So, meet Sandreline's Musical Challenge!
The object of this challenge is to create a story based off of a song - but not just any song! It has to be from a musical, and yes- Disney
does count.
For example, I am writing one based on "What is the Feeling?" from
Wicked.
The requirements are as follows:
1) It needs to be at least 1,000 words. If you are doing a series of one-shots, then each one shot needs to be a thousand. The reason for this is because of reason 2:
2) The lyrics for the song must be included in the story. Ergo why the length limit is a little longer than other challenges.
3) The theme of the story must be parallel to the song. You can't just randomly insert a song into a one-shot.
4) You must make a reply with a link to your story here, so I can give you kudos!
If you need a few musicals to get ideas from, here you go!
