A Picture is Worth a Thousand FAWCs

[TxRad]

Nope, it's the same picture guys for any late to the party.

Thanks for posting the pic, Tx. It is indeed a challenge. I'll make sure to update the first post.

 

[FAWCker]

I'm not a participant but have some plot bunnies, free to a good home. PM me.

Come on, JBJ. Give it a shot.

First post updated.

Maybe. I have some ideas that might work out well.

What better for a fall vacation than someplace warm and exotic.

But I like fall. I like cold mornings and frost glittering in the sunshine and the sound of leaves crunching under my boots.

Well, that's why this is a challenge.

I like challenges.

SciFi approach: After a lovely stay in tropical Wherever, a climate change catastrophe occurs, freezing the lagoon. People huddle in the thatched-roof huts to keep warm. Lots of things crunch underfoot.

(Yes, I know. The Day After Tomorrow.)

Prefers Fall foliage approach: "Why has my boyfriend dragged me to this tropical paradise when he knows I wanted to go to Vermont instead . . . hey, wait a minute, that looks like fun."

I don't know sci-fi or your reference but thanks.

But, but, but... You were the one complaining about the "S" word last week.

It's too early in the season.

 

[Tx Tall Tales]

I'm thinking flash story. No more epics for a while.

Got a couple of ideas percolating. Nothing that really grabs me yet.

Exactly what is the fall foliage in a place like Fiji?

 

[PennLady]

No idea here yet either beyond some that are pretty ... predictable or average or something. Maybe something else will strike.

grass skirts. And since autumn is when the leaves fall . . .

OK, what are the predictable and/or average scenarios? (And are you going to burst my balloon on my idea?)

No, your idea is fine. And I suppose it's not the idea so much, it's what you do with it. Any "ordinary" idea can have a little twist put to it and then it's not so ordinary anymore. I'm just not seeing any twists for me. Or perhaps I'm just drawing a blank.

But you don't know my idea--unless you've been peeking. The autumn idea was for ML.

I think I gots my twist.

Nope, not peeking. And with my cough, I could hardly be doing anything in secret.

 

[slyc_willie]

Just reading all the banter so far has given me an idea or two. But I need to finish my final exam for one of my classes, first.

Due at midnight!

Got any others? You know, so I can take pieces from each idea, mix them up, and write something that doesn't resemble any of them.

 

[sheablue]

Oh oh oh! I think I've got a really interesting idea!

Maybe.

Not to share, no.

JBJ claims to have a bunch to give away--unless, of course, you want to write erotica.
