I miss the days when I used to host writing challenges right here in this very journal.
So. Now that the seventh Harry Potter book has been written... I think it's time for a different kind of writing challenge. I used to host the short-short ficlets, 300 words or less, open fandom.
Today, I'm going OC. And that doesn't stand for Orange County: it stands for original character.
Ready? 3, 2, 1, let's... get inspired to write original fiction, folks. The theme for the challenge is change: take 500 words to introduce an original character and demonstrate some measure of change for him, for her, for it.
Rules:
