And away we go on the 2025/26 #250Word #NYCMidnight #WritingCompetition ... Interesting R1 prompts which aren't bad but already have me scratching my head π€ If you need me for the next 2 days I'll be in my office banging my head on the desk π±ππβ€οΈ

My #TwistedTournament #100Word story wasn't my strongest this time but I still scored 8.34 π when added to 8.95 for my R1 #500Word π & 9.22 for my R2 #250Word πthis gave me an overall score of 26.51 bringing me in at 11th place across all 3 rounds ππ (my best result yet) πππβ€οΈπ
#250Word #TwistedTournament story complete (Though I still have some time to tweak it) π ... I think I landed lucky with my prompts that suited my brain & gave me a relatively painless flow through Ideation, Creation and Editing πβ€οΈπ ... Next are the prompts tomorrow for the #24Hour #100Word story π€π±
That's a wrap on the #500Word #TwistedTournament story ... Thankfully, compared to last weekends rhyming story, this felt like a relatively painless flow through Ideation, Creation and Editing πβ€οΈπ ... Now to await the dropping of the potential prompts tomorrow for the #48Hour #250Word story π€π±
Round 2 of the #TwistedTournament kicked my arse. I'm not sure where my head was π€π± ... Anywhere but coalescing on a viable #250Word story π€π±π I finally had a breakthrough today and have something submitted that I actually like β€οΈππ (Just hoping it does well during the #PeerJudging )
And away we go π For this #WritingBattle I have 2 days to find a coherent #250Word story based on a set of prompts I'm yet to settle on (limited rerolls available) π€π± ... Then it'll be on to read other stories in the #PeerJudging segment π
Good luck to everyone else taking part π€ππβ€οΈπ
A bit late to this one but thought it was worth a punt π€ I've put in one of my favourite #250Word #FlashFiction stories which I wrote for another #WritingCompetition & also the first 8000 words plus 300 word synopsis of my #WorkInProgress novel πβ€οΈπ Good luck to anyone else taking part ππ€π
That was a tricky #Challenge π± To make the narrative work in the Round 1, #500 word story, I've ignored one of my usual rules for stories of this length ... I hope it isn't too jarring when it enters the judging phase π€ Onto Round 2 & the #250Word Challenge π Good luck everyone else taking part πβ€οΈπ
