ADMIN POST: The Documentation Challenge.

The Documentation Challenge.
This one comes to us from LauraKaye. Write a story that is either in the form of or prominantly features some kind of document (e.g. case report, traffic ticket, personnel evaluation, pizza delivery log, diary or journal, letter, phone bill, deposition or transcript...)

It's Monday by my watch--stories are due next Monday before midnight.

(And while I have your attention--I need more challenges, people! Submit those challenges! Put 'em in the comments, send me an email, buttonhole me at the bar and say, "Ces, ol' buddy, ol' pal--I'm picturing a challenge with a leather harness, an egg time, and a kazoo...." Put all these great minds to work for YOU!)

Tea--check! Or we could broaden it to The Coffee, Tea, or Me Challenge. *g* Hee, I like that. The beverage challenge.

Passing is brilliant but tough--it's a very specific kind of fabrication. Hmm. Might blur interestingly with undercover. Passing, undercover, trying to be what you're not, trying to fool somebody...

Poetry, man--I suppose we could broaden it to include lines of poetry--like, that every story has to be prefaced by a few lines of poetry, and maybe named for that poetry. Rather than everyone having to write poetry themselves. Which I frankly fear. (Not least of all my own poetry.)

LOVE the letter challenge--we must do that, absolutely! George Perec wrote a novel using only the letters A-H, so this should be doable, really.

Drunk and disorderly is just a given, too. *g* As is the porn challenge. Done.
