"Monthly Challenge: September Blues" by FatiferousPoet
Started 04 Sep 2008: Ended Fri Oct 03, 2008 11:00 pm
Getting depressed after a sunny summer and having to face the autumn season? What is actually bringing you down? Some would argue that the cooler weather helps them sleep, that the landscape dotted with bright, flame-coloured trees is a Kodak moment not to be missed. So what is having you singing the blues?
Note that this is not a drabble challenge. There is no word limit.
End date is 04/10/08.Challengees: None.
"Monthly Challenge: Back to School/Work" by Rhapsody
Started 18 Aug 2008: Ended Wed Sep 17, 2008 11:00 pm
As the title suggests, it's back to reality time. The Long Holiday is over and our characters have to go back to work/school. It'll be a blessing for the workaholic among them maybe but could be hell for others. How do they deal with it?
As we're late issuing this challenge, we've pushed the deadline to give you a full month to answer anyway.
End date is 18/09/08.Challengees: None.
"Monthly Challenge: The long holiday" by FatiferousPoet
Started 01 Jul 2008: Ended Sat Aug 02, 2008 5:59 pm
Summer (or winter) is here; many schools or colleges are closed for business. Ever wondered what your character might do on a vacation? Would some workaholics be forced like Bones or Bruce Wayne, or would some just simply revel in absolutely doing nothing (think of Hoban 'Wash' Washburne or Fox Mulder)? This challenge is just made for that, to explore how your chosen characters would entertain themselves during a holiday. Are your muses already nibbling? Feel free to participate!
The deadline passes at the 2nd of August 2008 at midnight (although if you are just running out of time, contact us!).

"Monthly Challenge: Midsummer Magic" by Rhapsody
Started 31 May 2008: Ended Wed Jul 02, 2008 5:59 pm
June is here and Midsummer is approaching fast. In the spirit of Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' we would like to challenge you to either write a work which is about a solstice event where the gates to an parallel/ alternative universe are opened or write a story set in a so-called parallel/alternate/mirror verse with all its facets (it might be mischievous, joyous or all about love). So yes, if you always wanted to write Willow in black leather again or your favourite character in the Terran Empire or Mirror Universe, or wanted to try and write the Firefly crew as its exact opposites (or any other crew or favourite tv/movie characters for that matter)... feel free to participate in this challenge.

Monthly Challenge for May 2008: All Things
Things we keep
Things we give away
Things we hide
Things we reveal

"OSA Poetry Challenge #4: Anaphora" by Viv
Started 01 May 2008: Ended Sat Nov 01, 2008 7:00 am
Anaphora
Write an Anaphora poem. An Anaphora is "the repetition of a word or expression several times within a clause or within a paragraph". In poetry the repetition of the phrase can be just at the beginning of each line, setting the tone as a meditation or a mantra, or it can be utilized more subtlety within the poem. The poem can be free verse or prose style.
New OSA Poetry Challenges will appear on the first day of each month and will have 6-month deadlines (which should allow for epic tales as well as shorter verse). Please feel free to suggest Poetry Challenge topics on the OSA Poetry Challenges thread in the Forum.Challengees: None.
