Hello, talented writers!

Here’s a hopefully fun writing challenge for you. Two winners will be chosen by an outside judge. Each winner will be tipped 625 coins which you can cash out for a $50 Amazon gift card!

The pictures below contain elements of St Patty’s Day, but I want you to write a story reflecting whatever comes to mind when you look at each picture. It can be, but doesn’t need to be around St Patty’s Day, just your take on the picture.

The rules are simple:

1. Write an 80-word (yes, only 80 words 😈) story (or poem) to one or both of the pictures below. Why not post a story for each picture to better your chances.

2. Post your story in this thread (do NOT submit as a story in the editor for mods to approve), labeling as “shamrock” or “rainbow”, so the judge knows which picture you are writing for.

3. Have fun!

4. Comp ends at midnight EST on St Patrick’s Day (March 17th).

So get those imaginations going and submit an entry (or two)!

Message me with questions. I’m going on vacation soon, but will get notified and respond to messages.

Can I combine them and write a story about a lucky gay robot? 🤣

(I jest. But I will probably come up with something.)

Sonja did not have a cat. So why was this one making itself at home in her house?

The metal singer made Brenda an interesting offer, but was her interest in the music ... or him?

🤣 no!

The rainbow 🌈 has many meanings, Mr Ape, gay pride is just one. 😉 It can be hope after a rainy day or reference a pot of gold at the end or a symbol of St Patty’s Day. 😊 And yes, a lucky gay robot, too, could work for either pic!

80 x 2? Yes, both I will do. Thanks for kickstarting the SS competition environment. 🥂

Iconoclastically incorrigible or just a silly dumb ass...

OMG! Finally I can start a story with "It was a dark and stormy night..." 😀

This will be fun, hope I come up with something. Big thanx to WriterGirl for setting this up.

Sounds fun thank you Kimmi😋
