Your 100 Word Story
Let’s get this weekend write-life started! From this Friday forward, I’ll include an image prompt and a few words to get your brain percolating towards a story. But only if you need it! Write whatever sparks joy for you.
Here’s how:
Exactly 100 words. Not 99 or 101. The Word Count Police are tracking!
Genre? Writer’s choice! So long as you give us all the thrills and the feels.
To Fic or to Non-Fic? You decide. What matters most is that you’re satisfied with the output.
Copy/paste your words in the comments, then share on your own Substack, and maybe, share to social media!

IMAGE PROMPT
Heading out before sunrise, but for what? To catch a nightly creature before it lay dormant for the season, perhaps, or something much more sinister…
REMINDER: You don’t have to write your story just on Fridays! Take this sentiment and free write all weekend long!
Enjoying these weekly emails? Don’t forget to read the submissions in the comments section and share this post with your friends!

The true mariner does not fear the sea. Its temper is what must be – a force as old as time itself, older and more powerful than that of human kind,. There is no cruel violence in the storm, no wickedness in waves, no criminal intent in the sweeping of the great currents, no anger in the wind’s wildness. Greater than the land, the sea wraps the world in the gift of weather. Lifted up as rain it sustains every living thing.
It is landfall that the mariner fears, for it is where we live – in greed and anger.
