  • "Something Itchy This Way Comes" by LuthienTinuviel

    Started 18 Jan 2008: Ended Sat Mar 01, 2008 6:00 pm

    A humour challenge. Write something, (e.g., ranger Aragorn learning how to do his laundry in the middle of the forest; Elros discovering he has allergies after he makes his choice and becomes human; Legolas watching Gimli scratch his ears raw when they can't find a clean waterspot to wash off ).

    Regardless, itchiness is the main theme. Can be drabble, poetry, short story, whatever. There is no word limit. There is a deadline, however: All itchiness must be resolved (that is, the story must be posted) by the end of March, 2008.

    Have fun!
