Soap Opera Sunday Rules!

Published by Brillig

Here are the rules:

1. Anyone can play SOS–the more the merrier.

2. Link back to whoever is hosting for the week and then enter your post in their link-list. They will turn these links into permanent links when the list is complete.
3. The story can be about ANYTHING–typically, they are about past romances, but they don’t have to be. Think melodrama. Happy, silly, funny, or serious, sad, painful. It’s all good.

4. Generally the stories are TRUE stories. If yours is NOT a true story, but an exercise in creative writing, that’s fine. Just be sure you let us know it’s not true. We don’t want people calling the cops on your ex or anything…

5. Keep it clean. I don’t mean it has to be rated G. But if your writing typically uses phrases like “throbbing member” then this probably isn’t the game for you. Kate and I, your SOS hosts, reserve the right to delete your link if your subject material is too racy. So aim for the DRAMA of the story, rather than the, uh, gruesome details.

6. This one isn’t a rule, but it’s good Karma. Go around and read the other participants’ stories and leave them comments. This will help everyone have a good SOS experience, and it will increase your own traffic. Obviously, life gets in the way, or sometimes a certain post just doesn’t speak to you, and that’s okay. As I said, this isn’t a rule.

    I have my story written for this Sunday and I totally want in! I do have a question though. There’s a monthly topic. Does that mean we only write one SOS a month? Or do we write every week a different story about the same subject? Or can we write whatever after our one story on the monthly theme? I want to make sure I do it right…
