“A haunted house doesn’t have to be a horror story, in fact a haunted house could simply refer to a memory or a family that has endured a tragedy. Zombie tales can be hilarious, and the word ‘zombie’ could refer to any number of things. Mysteries can find their way into any situation. Be creative, push your boundaries, have fun, write great stories.”

2016 PROMPTS:
Submit by July 28, 2016: Little mistakes, big trouble
We all make mistakes, usually small, and usually inconsequential, but sometimes those little things lead to surprising and troublesome places.
Submit by August 28, 2016: Girls! Women! Ladies! Chicks!
Your story must have at least two female characters. You story must have no male characters, and not mention or refer to the mens in any way, (this means you must also avoid mentioning their lack of presence in the story). We’ve all read countless stories where women make no appearance, so it shouldn’t be difficult to let the boys sit one out.
Submit by September 27, 2016: Twilight sucked, so fix it
We’re looking for YA or new adult, horror or fantasy or sci-fi, with a bit of romance. Your characters don’t have to be teens, but keep that YA template in mind. Please avoid obvious fanfiction, unless you’re going for satire.
Submit by October 28, 2016: Overheard
An overheard conversation should factor into the story in a significant way Remember, there are a lot of different ways a person can accidentally (or intentionally) overhear or be overheard.
