1. We're going to write a story together! I will create one with several blanks that other forumites are going to help fill in, which will hopefully create beautiful chaos because you don't know where your word is going or the context around it.

2. Say you're in if you want to contribute.

3. I will allow 2 days for sign-ups, so will start assignments at 1pm on Wednesday. This week's story has 28 blanks, so if I hit 28 participants before then I'll start immediately. I'll bump the topic if it falls off the first 2 pages to maintain visibility.

4. If signed up, I will DM you a type of word or list of types of words that I need you to provide to the story, so please make sure that either your filters allow for me to send you a message, or that you message me first so that I'm able to send you mail. It hopefully goes without saying, but I won't use this for any other purpose than sending your prompts.

5. I will allow another 2 days for people to see their messages and send me their words, in case anyone is busy. If you're unable to send your words by 1pm on Friday, I'll try to assign them to someone I know is online.

6. I will post the full story as soon as all blanks are filled in.

So who's ready to create wonderful nonsense? :D

Allow me to clarify, then. :D

So I've written a story that has several blanks in it. I'm going to send the participants a list of words, like

2 nouns

adjective

past tense verb

And then you just submit any word you want of that type, like "domino, xylophone, pretty, ran"

I'll then slot your words into the blanks, but you won't know what the story is or where your words are going until I post the finished story.

Just one participant who hasn't submitted yet. As soon as he's in your story will come on wings of delicious randomness!

And we're done! Here's your completed story:

---

General Octavius Bertrand Proximo CBE's Trip to the Petting Zoo

---

One fabulous Wednesday early evening, General Octavius Bertrand Proximo CBE went to the local petting zoo. It had a magnificent aardvark, a dazzling cerulean Honey Badger, and even a minuscule bootylicious giraffe! Octavius was so deadly to see them all.

When he went to the Dik-Dik enclosure, he was optimistic to see that they had all shat! The zookeeper was too busy cracking to help, so he slapped a high chair. That got all of the Dik-Diks humping again!

He had lunch at a small nearby cafe, having porridge and clam chowder with a side of lobster thermidor. To drink was obviously Whisky Mac, his favourite.

All too soon, it was time to go home, but first Octavius had a special jizz of the great white shark. What a teeny weeny day!
