Weekly Frantic Fiction – You will have 60 hours to write a story based on a prompt

Prompts will be posted to What’s New? at 12.0opm on Mondays – you will then have until 23.59pm on Wednesday night to submit a story to fulfil the brief.  The story judged to be the best will be announced on the What’s New page and posted to the Member Library within the forums, with a reminder of the prompt,  for members to read. There is no word limit.

The winning entry will also be eligible for publication in the Slingink magazine (if they desire – this is optional) and the winner will be announced on the blogroll.

Please  attach/post your story to the relevant Forum thread under the new Frantic forum (create a thread if necessary – if you wish to remain anonymous please PM your entry to kirstyes). When 2 or more entries are added a poll for voting will be created.
