Write a story that involves a word changing someone's life completely. The word can make someone's life worse or better, your choice.

Make it obvious what the word is.

Warning: This contest may offend some people.

In this contest, we want you to describe a scene. In the scene, there should be at least one human character. The point is to make the scene as stereotypical (and humorous) as possible. You can have stereotypical characters or stereotypical places.

Have fun being stereotypical! :)

You will be writing about what sadness feels like and that will be COMPLETELY MADE UP OF LYRICS. If the grammar doesn't make sense, it's okay, as long as we know what you are talking about. You may state where your lyrics come from at the bottom of your writing. You can also write poems if you want. THERE HAS TO BE A MINIMUM OF 2 SOURCES OF LYRICS (2 songs) IN YOUR WRITING.

I know I have a few writing contest, but watching my children play I come up with an idea.

We talk about love, crave love, pray for love, fall in and out of love. So I want you to describe what you think love is.

Can be a few sentences, or a few thousand. Use whatever you have to do and tell me what love is to you.

Judging will be slightly on grammar and spelling but mostly on how well the writer expresses themselves.

In light of the recent announcement that X-Files would be coming back for six more episodes, I thought it would be cool to do a sort of monster-of-the-week challenge.

All you have to do is create a monster and write a story about it. The story can be about anything at all. Get creative! The weirder the better!

Rules: Try not to use a monster that you know already exists, e.g., aliens, werewolves, zombies, etc.

Try to keep it under 5,000 words.

Have fun!

This is a Sequel to the Create Your Own Writer's Quote Contest.

Writing Prompt for this contest:

Every aspiring writer should his or her own Writer's Quote. In this contest, create a writer's quote of your own and put your Pen Name next to it. I hope everyone can participate! You can participate again if you did one in the original contest because I am sure you have developed new philosophies as a writer:)

Please name your issue subtitle with the naming convention as "Quote #". E.g. Quote 1, Quote 2 etc.

We will feature the best quotes in our Penana Quote Book!

This contest is inspired by the challenge on Reddit where a user asked other users to come up with a horror story in two sentences.

In this contest however, you may come up with a story of any genre. It could be comedy, horror, mystery, romantic, tragic - be creative! Have fun!

Just remember, only two sentences. And, although there's no word limit, try to keep it as short as you canbecause a sentencecanbe very long.

Good luck!

Create a 55-word story(including the title). This contest is just to see how creative anyone can be. A story can start and end in just a few words. You can write about anything you want.

Enjoy!

So, ya'll remember the quote contest? Well it was nice, and now I got some good quotes tucked under my belt. But how about this, use the best quote you can FIND.

Dig deep and find the words of the wise, the words that hold more meaning than most stories.

So. . . let's go!

You check the mailbox and receive a letter from one of your favorite childhood toys/items that has been lost for many years. It comes as a shock to you as it reminds you of some important memories in the past that involved the two of you (along with other people and things). In this writing challenge, you have to write the letter from the toy/item to yourself (you can make up a name for yourself). No word limit but preferably under 5 minutes.Have fun!Attaching a picture to help you with the creative associations:)

This is for those who find themselves drawn toward the darker themes of literature and those who find the light in that side.

Describe the concept or process of death in any way you'd like. Write a poem, a metaphor, even a story or philosophical decomposition.

Try to lean to one side of how one can describe death. Most see it as either a comfort or a despair. Let one be your focus.

Hello! This contest is all about FOOD! But not any food. You have to choose 1 food that comes directly from nature and do whatever you want with it. The only other thing is that the story has to be longer than 100 words.

-James and the Giant Peach

-Simple descriptions of you food

-Et cetra

Have fun!
