Choice 1: Autumn is a time of the senses. No matter where you live, the seasons change, nature changes, animals change, the clothing changes, decor changes, colors change...etc. It's a feast for all the senses taste, touch, smell, hearing, sight. So the challenge is to write a story incoporating the senses and the season...as many of the senses as you can. It can be any universe you want, gen or slash. However, if it is slash, the more "sense"ual, the better.

Choice 2: I think this one would come off better in a present day or future AU, but that's just me. if someone can see a way to put it in the past that's fine. Although Thanksgiving has been honored since before the USA was the USA, I am not sure when exactly it was declared a national holiday. And yes, I know there is a Canada Thanksgiving as well. This is sort of an anti thanksgiving. What if one (or more) of the seven just doesn't see anything to be thankful about, but because of a tragedy or near tragedy involving another one of the seven, realizes there is something to thankful for. Hurft comfort and angst to abound!

2009

Choice 1: Participate in Mag7WriMo, NaNoWriMo or mini-NaNo

Choice 2: A pouch holding 20 gold Double Eagles ($20 gold pieces) is found. Write a story telling who finds it and what he/she does with it.

2008

Choice 1: Write a "scene you'd like to see" -- In other words, using any episode, rewrite an existing scene the way you would have liked to see it had you had the control.

Choice 2: Write 1,000 words minimum, first person, present tense--and as a tiny bonus challenge add-on (because I chuckled when Charlotte mentioned it and November is Thanksgiving month for some of us), include the words: horn of plenty.
