[#131 | Nostalgia] Challenge Post

[fanweeklymod]

Challenge 131: NOSTALGIA

n. a wistful or excessively sentimental yearning for return to or of some past period or irrecoverable condition; the state of being homesick Pretty much everyone has experienced nostalgia at some point. Maybe it’s a return to an old favorite place, activity, or story, or maybe it’s just fond memories of childhood, college, before the war, or any other time in the past. Nostalgia is often bittersweet, longing for something or somewhere that you can never return to, but there can be something comforting about remembering good times. But nostalgia can also be dangerous, blinding an individual to genuine issues with the place or time that they’re longing for. How do your characters handle nostalgia? Do they dwell on it, or are they always looking forward? Do they jump at the chance to return to somewhere nostalgic, or avoid it? Write a story about nostalgia. BONUS GOAL: Brand-New Fandom If your submission is set in a fandom you’ve never written before, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge ends Monday, April 11 at 9:00PM EST. • Post submissions as new entries using the template in the profile • Tag this week's entries as: [#] submission, 131 – nostalgia • If you have questions about this challenge, please ask them here
