I've seen this idea on other writing forums and they can be rather popular.
the idea is that someone suggests a theme then everyone submits a short story based on the suggested theme. All members vote on the best story and the winner gets to suggest the next idea or gets a million pounds from Steppedonwolf. Either idea is fine by me.
So, Anyone wishing to suggest the first theme?

Hmm. Nice idea, Ian.
Couple of themes I'd like to see: a medieval themed horror tale, or a science fiction themed one. What word limit should we have?

Across the street from me there's an old peoples' home being torn down, I'd like to think there's nobody left inside but there's no way I can be certain.
The Demolition Site could make a very interesting premise for a story.

Ahem, apologies, Ian. I asked the question on the other thread - didn't even see this one. >< Ahem, so there goes my argument for trawling the forums in the wee hours of the morning.
Hmm, is there a word limit or it is so long as the story isn't of an excessive length? ^^ KC

Doesn't matter KC. Whatever the story warrants I suppose. While I'm here, isn't anybody else gonna have a go?
