Goldenlake Drabble Tournament
The Prompts[/center][/u][/b] The Drabble Prompts for the Goldenlake Drabble Tournament:1. SwitchThe first drabble prompt is “switch”. Chose a character, an event, a relationship, a decision, or so on – and switch it. It could be as fundamental or as insignificant as you like. Take one person and replace them with another. Take a good person and make them evil. Take a success and make it a failure. Take lovers and make them enemies. Take a question and change its answer. Pick something, or someone – and switch it. 2. NumbersThe second drabble prompt is “numbers”. Numbers can represent a lot of things. The time of day something happened. The amount of money you owe someone. The decrease in your fortune. The age of your child. The years that have passed. The lovers you’ve had. The lives you’ve taken. Pick a number, and explore its hidden meaning. 3. VillainThe final drabble prompt is “villain”. The villains in both Tortall and Emelan are very clear – or are they? Take a villain, and give them shades of grey. Expose something about them. Did we realise they were bad? What motivates them? What are their weaknesses? Give them some depth and humanity. Maybe we’ll like them – or maybe we’ll fear them even more. And don’t forget – one person’s hero can be another person’s villain. PLEASE NOTE: Entries CANNOT be submitted before May 1st or after May 31st.

I'm sorry to bring up an old topic, but I've been absent from here for a while-- what did we decide a 'drabble' consisted of? Is it still 100 words?
