ADMIN: Genre Redux Challenge
This one comes from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pearl_o who notes that:
Today's October 27th; stories are due November 10th at midnight.
Edited to add: I'm editing the title of this challenge to make it "genre redux"; yes, we did a genre challenge last year, but I thought it would be better to open us up to multiple genres than just to do a horror/Halloween story challenge. So use any alternative genre that you like.
pearl_o who notes that: "our stories have a lot of variation, but there's still mostly a common genre we all stick to in writing our fanfiction. So what I think would be really cool would be a Genre Challenge -- for all of us to pick a specific genre of writing and write our fanfiction in that, with its style and rules.So switch that story into a different key: set your DS in a genre you normally don't write in.
An incomplete of possible genres: mystery, detective story, thriller, horror, ghost story, historical fiction, harlequin or regency romance, sf, fantasy, western, drama, children's book, Platonic dialogue, memoir/biography, academic paper, newspaper or magazine article, textbook, religious text, chronicle, guidebook, reference book."
