Happy New Year, Writers!

This is your year to write short stories, and, to help you out, I've created a challenge:

12 Short Stories in 1-Year Challenge!

GOAL - Write 12 Short Stories between 5,000 and 10,000 words using the prompts on the bullet calendar below -

  • 01 - Must contain a list

  • 02 - Must contain a heart or heart-shaped object

  • 03 - Must start with the line "My/Her/His/Their luck was shifting quickly."

  • 04 - Must contain rain

  • 05 - Must be written from the point of view of a flower or plant

  • 06 - Must take place on a camping trip

  • 07 - Must take place in winter; include snow or ice.

  • 08 - Must take place on a college campus or education building of some kind

  • 09 - Must include soup

  • 10 - Must contain the thing you are most afraid of (I will be writing about clowns, because I'm a toddler)
