What's My LIne?

Introducing something new: What's My Line?


Section VII is a writing site, and so our challenge here is to find prompts and subject matter that jumpstart the process.  Song Stories have been interesting and fun, but perhaps not universally favored as a prompt, so here's something a little different.
Every other week there will be a scenario prompt, the suggestion of a situation for which a story needs to be told.  It should be interesting to see how people do this, the contrasts and similarities that emerge.

This week the prompt is:
The men from UNCLE need to find transportation because...

Posting will be on Sundays, and will also be the new posting day for Song Stories.  As in all things Section VII, gen is the rule of thumb with consideration for content and suitability for all readers of all ages.  Please use tags to help identify the writer, the content and challenge being written for.

Feedback is welcome, so please let me know if this will be of interest to you.

Great idea.

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

Glad you think so :D Of course now I'll be expecting some stories from you.

[avery11.livejournal.com]

I'll do my best.

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

Awesome :D

Are you going to be generating all the promps yourself? Or should other people pm promps to you so that you can build up a library of them to save you some of the work?

My original idea for this was to have prompts submitted, so yes by all means you should send us some one liners that will lead into a story scenario.

I was very inspired and finished my story...I hope it's what you have in minds. We're not supposed to finish the sentence anywhere in the fic are we? Exuse my for having a duh? moment.

Wow!

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

You are a shining example :D I look forward to a good read on Sunday.

Re: Wow!

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

not really, it's only because I have a lot of time on my hands....

Sounds like a neat idea though I like the other prompts too. Are there rules like min./max. word count?

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

Nothing is being eliminated, just adding this on a rotation with song story. We'll stick with the basic criteria on these challenge stories:
Minimum 500 words
Gen, content should be appropriate for all readers.
Closely related to the show's premise with the characters and circumstances primarily as they were depicted.
I hope your inquiries mean that you'll be writing :D

I hope to. It is certainly harder than it looks but enjoyable! i am willing to try.
