Pandora: Greetings, fellow citizens of Mir. As an experienced writer and bookshop owner, I must say that writing is perhaps the most joyful activity anyone can do. But orders for publishing and the number of books being sold have died down. This is not a good sign.
Nicola: In order to kickstart the activity in the writing community, we’ve put our heads together and have come up with an idea.
El Pandoro: Si, my girls. It is a contest. Unfortunately not a wrestling contest, but a writing one. We challenge YOU, citizens of Mir, to create a 40, 000 word novel about school drama. It must incorporate a touch of fantasy. Also, the story has to include these extra, small things: a Chilean concert pianist, a bad croissant and a meeting in the middle of the night.
Pandora: Grab a flyer – it has all the information. If you’d like to sign up for this challenge, just comment.
Nicola: And one more thing – every time you finish a chapter, it must be posted on this billboard here, the one that says “Where Thunder Roars.” Now, take a flyer, everyone!
*everyone rushes to get a flyer*
Citizen 1: My, this sounds quite interesting! I think I shall go home now and start work with my new typewriter. The very latest technology. Do you have one?
Citizen 2: Oh, uh, yeah, um, sure. I’ve… always got the latest… technology.

Where Thunder Roars 
Whoah! Sounds interesting I must think up a title and stuff like that!
A Life of Lies
Cain Lawrence.
Do we start today?
Sure! 😀 Start whenever.
Yaay.
I might want to write a story for this, but can it be Poptropica releated?
Title: Poptropica High
Main Characters: Fast Singer, etc. (I don’t have main characters yet.)
Me! Me!
Only, I’m not gonna start it for a while… HG fanfic and all that. I’ll think of a name someday, too.
I’m starting a story. It’s called “Only Fair”. I hope I actually keep it going, though 😛
I might post it later.
Ps: Main character’s name: Oliver Sanders
(I wanted to have a male protagonist in my story for a change.)
Okay, so the title is still undecided, but my main character will PROBABLY be Jenna Clark.
Haha, first time I saw that I thought you wrote Jeremy Clarkson.
xD
xD
Actually, is it okay if I wrote it in multiple points of view? ‘Cause I really cant stick with a character for a long time, they start to bother me.
It’s your story. :3
Trololol. This prompt would work for most of my stories.
I’ll add a midnight meetings + a bad croissant just for the lulz. :3
I should probably start this now. Lol.
Yeah, I reckon it’ll work. No, I should take the high school rule out because it restricts the writer too much. Set your story wherever.
Hurrah! Finally I got a blog from where I can truly get useful information regarding my study and knowledge.
