Halloween Fan Fiction Challenge 2005 Edition: Now launched!
by chrisbishop » Thu Jun 16, 2005 4:03 am
'Old time' visitors to the site are familiar with this: The Halloween Challenge is one of the two yearly, regular features on the Spectrum Headquarters Site (the other being the Christmas Challenge).
The Halloween Challenge was the first Challenge I officially launched, three years ago, and because of its success that first time arround, other challenges were created as well (Christmas, End Credits, Multiverses...). The Halloween is still one of the most popular and entertaining challenge, by the amount of writers, who are willing to participate in it every year, and for the quality and originality of the stories that are submitted to the site, and that now grace the pages of the Fan Fiction section.
Now it's this time of the year to officially launched the 2005 Edition of the Halloween Fan Fiction Challenge. Anyone wanting to write a story that fits the theme, can participate and submit his/her tale to the site.
Just check the information and rules on the Halloween Challenge page and contact the webmaster with your project.
Hoping you'll participate in great numbers, and that this year will again be a success!

Wow lauched already.
Oh no wait I understand, it usually takes that long for muse and life to coperate.
Have actually got something pretty much together on the general theme. Shall polish it up and submit ASAP.
Ooh so exciting

Halloween is almost upon us - I'm looking forward to reading some fantastic stories - as Chris says Halloween seems to bring out the best - or is it the worst? - in Captain Scarlet writers 
Bring it on - I say!

The Challenge is in its third week - and we have have had some wonderful stories: from Sage and two from Vicki Lister - both excellent but I liked 'Eternal Relief' best...
So nice to see another cracking story from Sue Stanhope too - Nice one, Sue!
And still more to come!

Well, I have to say that the notebook background was Chris' idea! And what a splendid idea, at that!
You're right though! No shortage of excellent stories this year! I'm REALLY enjoying reading them!

Cerise says:
Chris has created some spectacular backgrounds, graphics and illustrations for the stories this year.
I think we all owe her a 'thank you' - not that we've seen all the stories yet, of course... Halloween often springs a few late surprises...
But, from me at least, Chris - a huge thank you

Well, another Halloween challenge has come to a close 
- but what a challenge!
Well done everyone and thanks for some great stories this year I've had a lot of fun reading them all.
Keryn's story was a shocker and no mistake!
I wonder if we can top that next year?
