That 15 Characters meme
Jun. 12th, 2011 09:44 pmI've so enjoyed the results that I've seen with others, and I really could use something to help me get back in the groove of short-term writing blurblets - hence, here we go.... with fair warning that my characters are all over the map, but I don't think they should be too obscure for most of my flist. And, as lost_spook said, "it's never not fun"!
1) Make a list of fifteen characters first, and keep it to yourself for the moment.
2) Ask your flist to post questions in the comments. For example: 'One, nine and fifteen are chosen by a prophecy to save the world from four. Do they succeed?', 'Under what circumstances might five and fourteen fall in love?', 'Which character on the list would you most want on your side in a zombie invasion?'
3) After your flist has asked enough questions, round them up and answer them using the fifteen characters you selected beforehand, then post them.
I have my 15 - ask, ask away!
