Greetings all,
What I thought might be fun is to start an ongoing alliterative writing challenge where the aim is to construct a single sentence or short passage using as many different words as possible that begin with the same sound. An example of alliteration: Sing a Song of Sixpence.
To follow in a similar vein as the Spring Haiku Challenge, the last letter of the last word of the previous submission will determine the alliterative sound to use for your composition.
To further the challenge, a theme for your composition will be decided upon by the previous author which you'll need to incorporate into your writing. Examples of themes: Love, War, Animals, Outer-space, Music, Amusement rides, Nature, Bravery, Adventure, Achievement, Junk food, etc. Try not to select too specific a theme as this will restrict creative freedom and may prove difficult to incorporate.
As a final note, be aware that just because a word begins with the same letter as your other words doesn't mean it is suited for use in alliteration; words with silent first letters for instance. Example: honour, pneumatic, knight, photograph. These words would indeed sound out of place when spoken in context, so be sure to use them correctly. (ie, honour = 'o' sound; pneumatic/knight = 'n' sound; photograph = 'f' sound). To prevent confusion and debate it will be simpler to just avoid using these types of words altogether.
Well, that's about it, so I'll begin... with the letter A, on the theme of: Vegetables
--
Andre the amiable antelope ambled athletically along an ample avenue admiring an abundant array of appetising artichokes and asparagus available for acquirement as advertised.
--
Phew. Ok, so the next composition will need to use words beginning with the letter 'd'. The theme I choose is: Spooky
So who's up for the challenge? :)

Drekinn posted Wed, 10 May 2006 at 1:53 AM
Haha.. great work, though it's a little confusing at the beginning due to the inclusion of 'dour docks'; omitting these words would make the sentence more structurally sound. I'm not exactly sure what 'dock' means in this context; perhaps you could explain?

Dour means harshly uninviting or formidable in manner or appearance.
Docks are where ships 'park' (haha) to load and unload cargo.
Therefor the donors don't want to go to the dungeons which are at the docks but the dungeons are like a challenge to the donors daring them to visit them... (Something like that....)

NEW RULE
Great idea, Marlene. Yes, there's obviously going to be a high recurrence of the letter S, due to the use of plural words,
so the new rule is that if S occurs twice in a row then the second-last letter will need to be used in the following composition.
So I guess R is up for the offering this time round. :)

Thank you for the compliment, TP. I see by your bio that you too are equally gifted with word-weaving.
To be honest, I have no literary history of any notable merit, and up until recently I'd never considered writing as a serious endeavour. Renderosity's writing community has helped in providing me with a means to channel my inner expressions and ideas, and I now look upon writing with a great sense of relish and aspiration.

'Ahh, Sunday' said Squidward, 'Silence, solitude, and sheer serenity.'
'SURPRISE, SQUIDWARD!'
Squidward shrieked, shooting skywards in shock, spilling sarsaparilla onto his CD, and soaking his satin sheet.
'SPONGEBOBBBBBB!!' shouted Squidward, severely.

'Sorry, Squidward,' said Spongebob.
'So you should be, Spongebrain!' snarled Squidward, squelching and slopping in a sea of sarsaparilla.
Seeing Squidward seething, Spongebob surrendered his spade and sandbucket as a seemly solution. 'Sandcastles?' he suggested, and started scurrying around, skilfully shaping structures, singing shanties and spraying sand inside Squidward's shirt.

Acutely anxious apprentice astronauts assembled awkwardly in an airlock of the Apollo 18 in anticipation of an active assessment of their aptitude: attempt to annihilate an assault of approaching asteroids, armed only with archaic arsenal and anchovies as ammunition.

Marlene: To be truthful, I'm actually enjoying this challenge on my own and am looking forward to addressing every letter of the alphabet in order (yes, I need to get out more). What would be fun though, should you find the time to take part again, is for us to battle it out one-on-one using the same letter and theme (elected by myself); that way we both get a stab at every letter and can compare each other's wacky results. Sound good? It should certainly prove to be a contest of wit.

Dinhi: Yeah, I changed the rules a while back. The challenge has become my own personal battle as I attempt to file through every letter from A-Z on my own, with the themes being elected by myself. Other enthusiasts, like yourself, are of course welcome to submit their own contributions for the current letter and theme (though without electing a new letter or theme of their own). Once I've reached Z, however, the challenge rules will no doubt revert back to their original state, so the quicker I get through the alphabet the better. ;)

GAME RESTART - UPDATED RULE
Now everyone can join in as before, taking into account that the original rules have changed from using the last letter of the previous alliteration as the elected letter to now using the next consecutive letter in the alphabet (A-Z); this ensures that no letter is either repeated or left unchallenged.
So let us start afresh:
