LIFECYCLE: Awakening -- GUIDELINES

[carabele.livejournal.com]

With our first LIFECYCLE Challenge now history (and a big thank you to those who participated), time to set the guidelines for the second LIFECYCLE Challenge, which has a theme of AWAKENING.

Through we have just awakened into the spring season, the second challenge in this 2017 LIFECYCLE series won't awake until the summer season begins its reign. So you have lots of time to consider the particular turns and twists of this writing challenge. ;-)

The theme of AWAKENING can refer to a physical awakening, such as one or both of the guys returning from the realm of near-death to the realm of life. Or alternatively it could bespeak a more philosophical mental or emotional awakening of some type.

With that in mind, here are the guidelines for the LIFECYCLE: Awakening seasonal challenge.

CHALLENGE: Write an MFU fanfic story regarding the idea of AWAKENING. The story doesn't have to necessarily mention or include the actual term; just embody a scenario that fits the concept behind it. Do, however, place the term AWAKENING in a comment at the start of the story for clarity.

STATISTICAL STUFF: Minimum of 500 words with no set maximum. (Drabbles are not incorporated in this particular challenge.) Must fit into the overall concepts of this community, i.e., contain no explicit adult material and reflect the 1960s series in style and content. Please tag your story with the lifecycle tag.

POSTING: To this forum starting on Saturday, June 17th, and ending on Saturday, June 24th.
