I wrote all of these stories from finding writing contests online. It took me a while to find somewhere to let out what little (she says modestly, looking through her eyelashes) creativity I have.
Each story was written according to a prompt given by the contest. The first one I wrote was Catwalk Cattiness and the prompts were: Crime (Genre) Fashion Show (Place) and Wine Bottle (Thing).
Each contest has a word limit so the shortest story out here was write a story of 100 words or less with a twist ending. For someone like me who talks a lot and does the same in prose, this was the hardest one I did.
I have 4 other stories waiting on Judgement and fhttps://writingbattle.comeedback but it is a wonderful way to get writing again. I have never won the contest but I have placed in all of them. That gives me motivation to write more!
Here are some of the writing sites and contests I have found and entered:
https://reedsy.com/creative-writing-prompts
https://fictionprize.worldhistory.org
https://www.wow-womenonwriting.com/contest.php#FlashFictionContest
I recommend trying out the Reedsy prompts because they are a weekly contest. I will update more links as I find them.
Thanks for stopping by!
