Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- Hi Olivier ! So, have you decided how you'll dress for the Halloween party ? - Yes, I found the perfect costume when I went shopping last weekend. I'll be Chucky, the evil doll! - What a terrifying character! Well done! - Thank you! And you, who will you be? - I prefer the Gothic style, so this year, I'll be dressed as Morticia Addams. - She's so majestic and intimidating! Will you wear white foundation? - Yes of course, and also a jet-black wig!
