[seleneheart]

To quote from cesperanza, the founder of the comm, regarding this challenge:

"pearl_o suggested this a several years back, and it's become our standing Halloween challenge:

"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.

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."

Dress your fic up in its Halloween costume -- so much scope to choose from! What sparks your fancy?"

Traditionally, this challenge ran four weeks, so we will keep this open until November 17, 2019 at midnight, Chicago time (CDT, UTC-6). Please tag your entries with 'challenge: genre: 2019’. Have fun, everyone!
