Your new story prompts

Just to update the prompts for you.


WhatsApp: "Swept Away" up to 200 word stories please. Deadline Monday 21st September.


RepositoryOur homework prompts are based on the themes from our meetings and tonight’s meeting was a flash fiction session based on physical prompts. Well if you copy and paste the link below into your browser you will be taken to another world with some physical object prompts. You can use just one object, or more, to write in any genre you wish, with as many or as few words as you wish.

Or why not explore the website and be inspired to write about something altogether different?


There is no word limit but the deadline is Tuesday 29 September.


From Jim comes a possible solution to our meetings. He suggests:


I understand some groups get around the rule on booking meeting rooms by saying that they are booking for a Line Dancing Club which is classified as a sports activity! So there you are Dave when the 6 person rule is scrapped we can become the Felixstowe Scribblers Line Dancing Society and go anywhere. All we need is a cowboy hat, Yeehaw!


Only Jim could think of that!
