We thought we would do something a little different this time. You could say, putting the pressure on you, while having a little fun. Here's the premise:
You're a writer and the demands of others are weighing on you. You've got a deadline looming over your head but you've been struck with a terrible case of writer's block. We're all writers, we've all been there. We want you to get creative and find a way to break free from that writer's block. Perhaps it's something small, like taking a jog to see the beauty of nature. Or maybe it's a bit more extreme, such as giving a sacrifice to the Gods of old... Do whatever you have to do to meet that deadline. As added pressure, this contest will only run for two weeks and you only have one thousand words. Good luck!
Quick little add-on here, when we say "do whatever", that whatever still has to fall within StoriesSpace guidelines.
Per usual, all categories are open except poetry, songs, musings, and plays.
Quick Rules:
You have two weeks (14 days).
The maximum word count is 1000.
You cannot submit already published work.
All Stories Space rules and guidelines apply. https://www.storiesspace.com/legal/acceptable-use-policy
The ending date is February 26, 2025
The winners will be announced on March 5, 2025
Prizes:
1st Place $50 (USD)
2nd Place $25 (USD)
3rd Place $15 (USD)
Have fun and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask!
