Don't miss your chance to 'Challenge Me'...

This is the last call for 'Challenge me' suggestions!!

I'm running a bit of a competition - the winner will receive a warm fuzzy glow and the kudos associated with the fact that their three unrelated objects were chosen to be included in a unique piece of flash fiction, written by ME and posted here, on Squidge's Scribbles!

I'm going to post all the suggestions received so far in this thread so they're all in one place...you, blog reader, have until midnight GMT today to add your own. Please bear in mind I reserve the right to delete what I deem to be unsuitable suggestions - remember I write mostly for kids.

My family will be asked to choose their favourite combo from all those received, and I'll write the story to include them and post it on the 31st October.

It was great fun last time; I wrote two stories in the end, because I promised to create something unique for the only child who joined in - and I am a children's author after all. Check out Arnie's Aerial Adventure and The Ride to Heaven Retirement Ranch to see what I made of a kiwi, flying elephant and snowman, plus a cowboy hat, rocking horse and zimmer frame...

Let's see what you can come up with this time round - over to you!

  4. This sounds like Mark Twain's game he would play with his family. Let's see, a Christmas tree, a cardinal and a cat.
