Wonderland

by iKïyå§amhain

Rated: 13+ · Message Forum · Activity · #2212324

a "nonsensical" writing activity.

Based off the beloved children's literature "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking Glass" by Lewis Caroll, this is an activity designed to get you - sometimes - thinking out of your comfort zone.
You will experience the 'sensical' and 'nonsensical'; going through each adventure just as Alice did!
Only when you complete all the challenges, can you claim your rightful crown as Queen (or King)!

You must create a blog/book item to keep all entries for this activity.
Any and all challenges requesting you to post links to your entries must lead directly to said book/blog.
You must also enable comments for your item.

All entries can be no higher than the 18+ rating.
Please keep to word or line count and place those within your written items. No exceptions. Any item without this is automatically eliminated from consideration.

Stories and poems can be connected to each other or can stand alone.

Judging will be based on overall quality of stories/poems/tasks and not just on any particular one.

Judges can either review and rate every item they read or simply give a general comment/rating. Since we might have a lot to read, please do not expect as many detailed reviews.

Entries will be judged on creativity - how well the challenges were carried out - how cohesive the stories (if all are connected) are or how well-rounded each one is, as well as spelling/grammar - please be sure to keep this in mind while editing your stories.

You must post each adventure in order. You cannot skip or move ahead. Once you complete each adventure, you submit your completed responses in a post. For example, if you have completed the section "A. Down the Rabbit Hole", create a new forum post with that header to alert the judges.

With each post, you will be checked off as having passed that stage.

You cannot post a new section until previous has been noted by judge(s).

You can continue to work on the other sections, while waiting for approval in this forum. Remember the key is to post IN ORDER.

Note that once final judging commences you cannot edit your story. If we notice a modification date after the deadline (the 31st of March), it will be disqualified.

Sign ups begin February 1st, 2024 and ends February 25th, 2024. No more participants will be accepted after deadline.

Activity officially begins February 27th, 2024 and ends March 31st, 2024; 11:59 p.m. Writing.com Time.
