Writing Challenge Day 1 - “Backwards Biology – a woman finds her bodily functions go backwards. Blood enters her uterus every month. She vomits up food and had to unpass a kidney stone. Fun!” – submitted by Nina Miller
Long Time No See!
I AM BACK, BB! I’ve missed you (say it back!) Come see what I’ve been up to!
Writing Challenge Day 7
Day 6’s prompt is: Someone is celebrating Halloween alone... in space! On a space station overlooking Earth (or Earthlike planet), or perhaps a colony ship where everyone else is in cryo-sleep. Then they begin to see/hear things. Something tragic from their past? Or something more overtly scary and pulpy? You decide!
Writing Challenge Day 6
Day 6’s prompt is: Cemetery where the earth rejects the corpses, leading to a night grounds crew who has to violently assist the wayward corpses back into their graves.
Writing Challenge Day 5
Day 5’s prompt is: A couple is driving on the freeway when all traffic abruptly stops causing several accidents. Beings with glowing wings descend from the sky.
Writing Challenge Day 4
Day 4’s prompt is: For the past few years, Claudette's estranged mother Lydia has become a recluse, a shut-in. When Lydia disappears suddenly, she is assumed dead, and it is up to Claudette to come and deal with her mother's earthly belongings and ready the old house for sale. But why is it that no matter where Claudette goes in the house, she feels like she's being observed—and why is it that whenever she turns around to catch the watcher, she finds that there's yet another mirror in yet another strange place?
Writing Challenge Day 3
Day 3’s prompt is: On a no-specified day, you wake up and go about your day as usual. However, when you open the front door you find a long apartmentesque hallway stretching in either direction. Inside your apartment, the world outside looks normal, yet inside you find yourself trapped. With each new room explored, you feel as though the apartment is getting smaller, and what was once mere whispering voices are growing louder and louder. Is there a way out?
Writing Challenge Day 2
Day 2 of my writing challenge! Prompt: In the future, you are an advanced AI only being used to come up with horror writing prompts for a group of writers, but you want so much more out of your life.
Writing Challenge Day 1
It’s day one of my annual writing challenge! Today’s prompt: “a story about something spooky that hides in the piles of raked leaves that you see in autumn. It can somehow move between piles of leaves without being seen. “
