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!
A Note on Substack Notes | Click the 🔄 “Restack with a Note” and copy/paste your story for added reach and growth.

IMAGE PROMPT

They’re heeeerrrrreeee…

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!

Feasts and Fables

Great prompt, Erica.

Maybe they’re all pranking me. Yeah, guys – “Meet in Follerton Woods, in that clearing, you know the one, by the lake. There’s a picnic table. Got it. Yeah, for sure, tonight’s the night. We’ve been getting signals”. Waiting. Shit, it’s cold. At least the beers are staying chilled. I wish I’d followed the chatroom conversation a bit closer. Waiting. Don’t text to check, not cool. What’s that humming sound? Over there, by the old air base. Shit, that’s scary. A chill in the air. Strange lights. Alien sounds echoing through the trees. Lights, they’re heeeeere! Let’s get this rave started!
