...Huh!
Huh! That sounds hard. Kind of like Oops!
...It’s not at all like Oops!
Yes it is.
...No it’s not. Oops! is like discovering a mistake. Huh! is more like surprised confusion.
Really?
...Yes, really.
How about if I described complicated instructions for star hopping to the Crab Nebula?
...No.
Why not?
...That’s not a Huh! That’s just boring.
OK. What if I write about you?
...What do you mean write about me?
You know, my writer’s voice.
...I’m not your writer’s voice.
Yes you are!
...No, I’m not!
You are too my writer’s voice!
...Stop saying that. I’m not your writer’s voice!
Stop saying you’re not my writer’s voice when you most certainly are!
...If you keep saying that, I’m going to go away.
You can’t go away. . . . Did you go away?
...No.
(I knew it!) So, if you’re not my writer’s voice, what do I call you?
...How about The Most Excellent Grand Poobah!
Um, no. Let me rephrase that. If you’re not my writer’s voice, what are you?
...Your writer’s voice
Ha! I knew it! Don’t surprise me with confusion like that.
HEY! IF HE’S YOUR WRITER’S VOICE, WHAT AM I?
...You’re the writing, silly!
Oh, dear Lord!

My only tiny suggestion would be to not refer to the challenge at all in the writing--someone not familiar with the idea of weekly topics, etc. wouldn't "get it".
This really made me smile!
