We made this page for story tellers and those who like to or feel like expressing themselves in a short, little story. People post their thoughts, quotes, and ideas on their Facebook all the time. Even when talking to their friends face to face people are pretty much telling stories, so we encourage people to come to our page and tell us stories. Fantasies. Instead of writing about your personal life events in common everyday phrases, tell it a story; in a fantasy. Most of us can't help but try to entertain our friends and family by telling them jokes and, or short stories, but some of us are not 'writer's' per say. Perhaps you're more of a poet, or straight rapper or singer-songwriter. Well come on in and drop a story if you please. Just add a vampire, or a dungeons and dragons adventurer who meets a sexy wizard in there! Lol. Only if you're into that type of stuff. Still, if you're just checking out our page: Like it, and check it out again. See what people like to write about these days!
Five challenging rounds with theme-reinforcing answer sheets, guaranteed to put a smile on your inner nerd's face. 90 minutes of fun while proving you know the most.
