An interesting challenge I was posed on another forums a while back. It goes: Write a fanfic, word limit 10, no abverations or MSN speak. Apparently something called nanofiction. Let's see what what we come up with here.

I'll give you some mercy and raise it to fifteen.

I'll start:

For sale. Baby slippers. Never worn.

Why were you calling for me specifically?

Question: Are you continuing it from the poster above you, or do you just write your own? I assume it's the latter, because you'd probably would have said so if that's what you wanted.

Well, whatever.

Mandrake smirked and Jane scowled. Apparently she'd need a better plan than seducing him.

Forget it, this was doomed from the start.

Meh.

I swear I've seen that somewhere. They got a bunch of famous sci-fi and fantasy writers to do this.

Bartimaeus pops into the Void. "Who's been eating my porridge?"

edit: by the void, i actually meant the other place. Whoops. Haven't read Barti in a long time and i forgot most of the technical terms.

Post stole that from Hemingway with basically a word changed.

Newbie post!

In fourteen words:
Jane looked at her hair, in his hand. Nathaniel looked at her. “You’re… bald?”

In ten words:
Jane tugged at the hat furiously. Nathaniel cackled. “You’re Bald!”

Princess Bride (the book) reference. :D

Jabor rose out of Void. Detonation- Bartimaeus' essence- ripped. Eats him. Arg. Squelch. Help! Grar!

Want an even worse one?

Jabor fires. Barty- he died.
