Challenges, Challenges Everywhere!



In the comments of another post, Zolo77 issued a challenge.  Just to make sure that all of our expansive list of readers didn't miss it, I wanted to repost the challenge here.  I also thought I'd throw in another challenge, albeit a little bit of a different one, just so we could have lots of ideas to choose from.

Okay?

So, Zolo77's Challenge went like this:

1. Must be centralized around Han and Leia (duh)
2. Include a confession from either.
3. Timeline: from post Truce at Bakura to beginning of Courtship of Leia.

My new challenge was maybe not a story, but it could be depending on what inspires you.  My challenge is to write up what the New Year's Resolutions of your favorite characters would be.  It kinda goes with the poll that just closed.  Just to recap, topping our polls were:  Han Solo in 1st place, Darth Vader in 2nd place and Leia and Lando tied for third.  This could just be a list or, as I said, perhaps a short story.  Just wondering what some of those ideas were that went along with those votes.

Lastly, don't forget that we have the call out for Valentine's Day mushy stories.  So, THREE challenges in all.  Surely one of those should inspire you.  Am I right?

Good Luck and Happy Writing.  And remember, it goes like this:  We set the challenge, you write something down and send it to us and then we publish...  Easy, cheesy, lemon squeezy.  :-)

P.S.  We haven't done this in awhile, but remember how we used to assign quotes to some of the pictures we posted?  Well, when I was picking this one out (at top) I thought of this quote:

Han:  "See, Leia?  They're out there, writing stories about us and talking about us."

  1. Are you sure he's not saying "See, Leia, that bikini wasn't all that bad. They could make you wear some homemade dress instead."

    1. Lol Amara. :) Good one.

      But I think he's saying, "Hey, fancy a quickie behind that bush over there?" ;)

    2. Lol! He probably did. Of course her response is "Heck yeah!" ;)

    4. Love this. Hey, maybe you should do regular caption competitions? It would be a good laugh.

    5. It is fun. Of course I still think the missing moment they should have included in ROTJ was Han and Leia getting in a quickie behind the bunker. :)

  2. Caption competitions? That would be awesome! I was thinking this for the above pic.
    Leia: "We have to distract the stormtrooper. Any ideas?"
    Han: "Still got that bikini?"

    1. Lol. Nice one. I can hear her comeback - "One more comment like that from you, flyboy, and you'll be streaking to distract them."

    2. Very Funny. :-)

      I'll add Caption Competitions to the to-do list!

    3. And can't believe I didn't comment on Amara's idea of Han streaking....that is exactly what SW is lacking, don't you think? ;)

    4. Most definitely. Streaking or stripping. Either works for me. :)

    5. Leia: "Why? You want to wear it? That would be a distraction!"

      ;)

    6. Lol! Luckily I did not see any guys in her bikini at Celebration.
