CHALLENGE no. 8

October 31-Nov. 9
(A week-and-a-halfer special.)

Have you ever seen Harvey, starring Jimmy Stewart?
 Quothe iMBD, "Elwood P. Dowd is a mild-mannered, pleasant man, who just happens (he says) to have an invisible friend resembling a 6-foot rabbit." I think the movie is charming, it is Jimmy Stewart, but it has a definite dash of creepy.

With that introduction, and it being Halloween and all, we bring you Challenge no. 8!

Create an imaginary friend for either yourself, or a historical, or fictional character.

To explain historical, come up with whatever Abraham Lincoln or Winston Churchill would have had as their invisible, best friend. The one who was the real reason we won the war! The real reason Santa Ana took the Alamo! Uh, well, the Hobbes to whatever Calvin you choose.

Mr. Cory Loftis posted these on his blog a while back. Here it is to help get sluggish creative juices flowing:

Her imaginary friend doesn't understand her at all. Everyone knows she likes strawberries the best.  Strawberries are what princesses eat.


Go check him out over on Tabletmonkey Presents.
Challenge submissions due by midnight, Fri., Nov. 9.
