Pam's Prison Break Challenges and Chat

Six months with no challenges was a long time.
Sorry but it just couldn't be helped when it came to matters of strikes and poor health.

All that is over now so let's get back to fan fic'n

May 2008's monthly challenge is called:

Listen to the Music

This one is real simple...
Inspiration from the words to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody
** So many of these lines fit the PB characters so very well**

Choose one or two lines that inspire you and give us those lines and the name of one main character ( you can use others but you must name at least one) you will use in the comments.

Each line can only be used by one person. I will bold each line when it has been taken. While there is no restrictions on how many people can write a given character each line may only be used by one writer.

Take your lyrics... take the month... fic it out!.

Long or short, feel free to drabble...
You in?

Lyrics under the cut.
Bolded ones with a name are already taken.
( Read more... )

EVERYONE is welcome to play along.

As is the custom here the 4th person to comment on this thread picks my prompt for the month.

** Special note: While these are issued monthly there is no deadline. ALSO don't feel bad if you don't EVER get to one you that take as this is about inspiring more fic, fan fic variety, making 4 out of 10 taken prompts written in a month a whole lot better than none taken and done at all for fear of dropping a prompt.


That's it for this month.
I know its been a LONG time between these challenges so feel free to put any questions you may have about how it all works in the comments and I'll get back to you ASAP!

This months challenge is called:

Snapshot

This one is real simple...
Under the cut are 5 screencaps from episodes 1-4 of season three

Choose your episode and pick any snapshot of the five that inspires you.

** Fic can be set within or post episode OR you can use the picture you choose to inspire something completely new **

Put the episode name and picture number you want in the comments when you have chosen.

Once you know it is your pic for the challenge BE SURE to save it so you can post it with you finished fic.

Long or short, feel free to drabble...
You in?

* All the snapshots you want tucked under the cut *
Bolded ones with a name are already taken

EVERYONE is welcome to play along.
** And remember while these are issued as monthly challenges there is no fixed deadline so take all the time you need. **

As usual the 4th person to comment on this thread picks my prompt for the month.

** Special note: While these are issued monthly there is no deadline at all. ALSO don't feel bad if you don't ever get to one you take as this is about inspiring more fic and 4 out of 10 beats none any old day of the week.

Please post a link to your * For the love of October * October fic challenge in this thread.

Thanks for playing along and be sure to check back in Nov for next months challenge.

This months challenge is called:

For the love of October
For those of you down under think of it as say... April ( is that fall? ) instead of Oct.

This one is a little different.

Thanks for playing along and be sure to check back in Oct for next months challenge.

This months challenge is called:

Time Warp

This one is pretty simple.

You're gonna take us on a time warp into your given characters future.

You have to make TWO CHOICES for this challenge.
Choose your characters and then choose the - 5 , 10 or 15 years - point in the future you intend to show us.

** Remember one of each ... the character AND the time **

While this would be seem to be a challenge destine to be loaded with happily ever after fics PLEASE don't be afraid to go the other way. All sorts of future, the good and the bad, are possible and make for fantastic fic!

Long or short, feel free to drabble...

Please post a link to your * Under there... Underwear * August fic challenge in this thread.

Thanks for playing along and be sure to check back in Sept for next months challenge.

This months challenge is called:

Under there? ...Underwear!

Since I'm traveling nearly the entire month of Aug I'm going back to * the basics * offering the good old underwear challenge.
I LOVE this one because it always seems to breed all kinds of fun fic fast.

It's all about the underwear people!

No matter what else you weave into the fic somehow... some way... you have to work in what they got on underneath it all.

Sexy... unusual... flat out boring?
Put em on... take em off.
Comfortable... uncomfortable... maybe missing altogether?

Long or short, feel free to drabble... historically this challenge breeds loads of drabbles and ficlets, serious or silly... don't matter as long as there are under garments thrown in the mix!

You in?

You have to choose one character but are free to write that one character in any way or with anyone you like. I'm putting two Michael and two Linc on the list just in case more than one of you wants them.

Better fix that ;o)

Please post a link to your * One Song * May fic challenge in this thread.

Thanks for playing along and be sure to check back in June for next months challenge.

This months challenge is called:

ONE SONG

May is for the writing of many diffrent fan fics inspired by the same ONE SONG!!

I've done this one with every fandom and the results are always VERY COOL..

Use the whole song... just a portion... or even one single line as inpsiration.

Here is the ONE SONG...
" Let Me Go " By: 3 Doors Down
http://www.sendspace.com/file/tmgu4n

And here are the lyrics if you want to pull out just a line or two.
While the song would seem to promote strictly romance fics I have no doubt as you listen too and read the lyrics you see that many lines in this song may prompt all kinds of different fics.

All responses to the:

Season Two finale fic - " Sonafest "

I know I'm late with this months challenge but I wanted to wait the few extra days it took so that the season two finale would have aired before issuing the challenge for the month.

This month's challenge:

Sonafest

Is all about writing finale fan fic.

As usual you will have to choose a main character for your fic from the list but after that one lil part what you write, be it after the episode or during the ep itself, is all up to you.

Include your character and work " Sona " into the story in some fashion and you will have met the April finale challenge.

Pick your character

Michael - gatheringlight
Lincoln - domfangirl
Sara - nnaylime
Kellerman - bluedelft
Mahone - tearcreek
Pam Mahone
Mr. Kim
Sucre
T bag
Bellick
Padman

Feel free to choose a character not in the ep too because the news of Linc's innocence would surely spread fast.

As always the fourth person to comment gets to choose my prompt.

This month's challenge, in honor of Valentines Day, is called:

AS BAD AS WE WANT TO BE!

Pair the hearts and flowers holiday with the fact that we just got done nominating the best of the best Prison Break fan fiction and I think its time for some spectacularly BAD FIC!

Pick your pair... pick a style.. and load us up with every cliche imaginable in one fan fic.

Here are your three styles - You must pick one along with you pair

1. HFR ( Hearts and flowers Romance ) - I'm talking sappy declarations of undying love. Candles, roses, tuxedo's, bended knees and velevt ring boxes. WORK IT!

2. SS ( Silly Smut ) - This on is all about the cliches. Tight curls... straining erections... wet and weeping EVERYTHING. Pulsing this... twitching that... throbbing? OH YEAH plenty of throbbing all the way around. Toss in every smut cliche you can think of and you're golden.

3. BOC ( Both of Course ) - Follow the sappy hearts and flowers romance with some world class silly smut. Do you DARE go BOC?

Poking fun at ourselves is, healthy - we don't want to take ourselves too seriously do we? - fun for all and takes talent just like any other kind of fic so don't write this challenge off too quickly.

We are gonna be howling with laughter with these all over the PBfic community as the month goes by and you will, if you don't sign up now, be wishing you were playing along.

Come on... COWARD!

Here are the available pairs
I'm putting a few spots for some pairs so everyone who really wants them can have them.
Claim your pair and state your style in the comments.

Michael & Sara HFR - gatheringlight
Michael & Sara -
Michael & Sara -
