Announcement Short Story Challenge.
It might sound harder than it is but writing a story in series is not as hard as it sounds. I dare you to join the contest @Ozxyy hosts. If you never read him you should. He is definitely one of my favorite writers and tries to give this platform a better face.
It's about writing so let's write!
If you are not good in writing in series write one longer story and cut it into parts and let it end in a way it triggers readers to read on.
There are 3 genres. Pick one or if you are creative enough all three. - Romance
- Crime
- Comedy
The rules are clear. You write in English, take care of grammar and punctation and...
Your stories must have a minimum of two parts and a maximum of 10 parts.
The deadline is: September 19, 2020

I believe 4 writers already finished their story. I read one yesterday and am so happy he joined. He is such a great writer. 😍
It is cool to see more entries now :) Contests such as these deserve spotlight and appreciation. This is what this place is all about. Writing and reading!
Four entries are finished and as I understand we have today too. I wish some more joined. Two parts must be possible or?
Thanks @wakeupkitty. I daresay we have a great increase in interest, and the final might very well be a tight one.
Great to hear. I try to give it another push. If those writers sit down for 30 minutes, stop chatting a new story is born. Plenty of tools to help with that.
@Heartbeat1515 has a free day off but I informed her to write too. 🍀💕
I have been having a lot of days off lately. Now that I am back living in the city, perhaps I can spend more time here compared to before where I have internet limitation.
How is your internet limitation now? Your house? I am as limited as usual. Weekends are the worst. 🍀💕
No more limitation for me. Sometimes when the weather is bad like heavy rain or strong wind the line is not so good but at least I still can be online even though it is slow. The house is postponed again because of movement restriction over district but we can live in it comfortably. We have an old bed from my family house.
The little one can run a bit freely now. No more tying her on the waist. It is a dream comes true. Just need to be extra careful because we are now on the roadside and she can climb up the window.
Honestly, it looks like a herculean task, but when you look at it again, it's really not all that hard. I think I'll get to work on another short one and finish it right before the contest ends to prove this point.
If people know how to do it it's easier. A bigger problem is hardly anyone writes a story.
What about horror? are horror stories accepted or not really?
Of course horror is acceptable. If you ask me most stories are a combination. Let's say horror is crime. Please, join us you are a great writer.
I really appreciate your kind words. Thank you so much for the compliment. I will join, I already started publshing few parts before giving up. I will submit those parts to the contest community and publish the last part later. That's not against the rules right? I mean submitting an entry some of its parts were published in another community.
I read you yesterday and you are soo good! 😍
Thank you :D I'm happy you find it interesting! Glad to know really. Thanks for telling me about this contest.
Waoh ... What a coincidence..... I just dropped a story right now but it's not in series, it a one long story.... I hope I can participate 🤔
How about cutting it into two parts? Problem solved or?
Am using it as part of my mechanics for a giveaway right now..... I will definitely do it the way you said when am done.... thanks
You have still today to write dear. Tomorrow at noon the story should be finished please, join.
Am already on it .... Have been busy with work lately... thanks for your care
I am working on it now, I already released two parts 😊
I just wrote too. I divide it in three parts. Let's encourage him. Great you did. 👍
Yeah, I write because I don't want him to be disappointed that there are less entries.
There's a story plot I have on my mind but I'm afraid about not giving justice to the story and disappoint myself in the end.
Just write like you write a freewrite, keep the plot in mind and edit it once finished. You'll be fine.
Thanks for the advice. I'll try to work on it tonight then.
Great let me know if you need help. Good luck.
I want to join but I'm not good on writing stories .But gudluck to those who will join. I will just follow the link so that I can read your short story about the different genres.
You can write for sure. Use the free prompt help Used for this story: https://writingexercises.co.uk/firstlinegenerator.php

Sorry, the writer's name is @Ozzyy. Bad thing short posts cannot be edited and believe me I use Grammarly.
Very well, there are more and more writers. I see more comments from those engaged. Ahead!
