Description:

This is a challenge for all of the creative writers on Swap-bot. It’s the second of several writer’s challenges that I’ll post.

For this challenge, write a short story that contains words that begin with each letter of the alphabet (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z). At least one word in the story needs to start with each letter. Articles (the words A, AND, & THE) are excluded.

Be sure to put your byline and contact info on the story. Give your story a title, print two copies and send a copy to each of your partners.

Tips:

You can bold the 26 words so your partners can easily find them.

The story can be any length, shorter (1-5 pages) is probably best though.

The fine print:

This swap is international.

Your story should be mailed via snail mail (on paper and in an envelope, not via e-mail).

You don't need to wait for a partner assignment. Start thinking and writing as soon as you join so you'll be ready to mail when partners are assigned.

Rated players must have a 4.5 or higher to participate. Newbies welcome. ALL players must have a completed profile. I review the participants list after the signup deadline

Have fun!

Just a note to those who love wordplay... if you haven't read Ella Minnow Pea by Mark Dunn, go to your local independent bookshop and buy it. Or head to your library and take it out on loan.

Hi all: Something has come up that I have to deal with so I've backed up the deadline for all swaps I'm hosting by two weeks. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Short stories are en route to my partners. Enjoy!
