I have more points than I'll ever know what to do with and I love running contests/inspiring people to write.

One of the things I love about The Beatles is their ability to tell stories through their music. I've picked out ten songs (if more people are interested, I will add more). If you are interested, reply to this thread and I'll assign you a song via PM. Let it inspire you however it inspires you. If the lyrics and music make you think of something completely unrelated to what the song is actually about, awesome! Write a piece of flash fiction (no more than 1000 words) and post the link here. Keep it PG13.

Let's put the deadline a month from now, January 12th.

1st place: 5000 points and 3 reviews
2nd place: 2500 points and 2 reviews
3rd place: 1000 points and 1 reviews

Slots (subject to add more pending interest)

1. LadyLizz
2. Flumadiddle
3. Wolfical
4. Holysocks
5. DarkPandemonium
6. DemonGoddess
7. Wisteria

If there are any questions, let me know!

Songs have been assigned! I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. There's still plenty of spots available for anyone else that's interested too :)

How's everyone's story coming along? Does anyone need an extension, or does the 12th still work as a deadline?
