The Prompt Word is given on the First FRIDAY of Every Month. You then have 2 weeks before the Stories Post will go live.
- You can post a link to your story in the comments section at any time, and we’ll add it to the Stories Post.
Be sure to post your story by the 3rd Friday of the Same Month and check out the other listed stories (this is the same date as the Stories Post goes live).
Share your input in the comments of the Stories Post to let us know your favorites!
RULES
- minimum 250 to 2000 words max (give or take a few)
- fictional tale (or true if you really want)
- PG-13 (or less)-type Content – let’s keep this family friendly!
- Your story must contain the randomly chosen word(s) and/or be centered around the word meaning in a way that shows it is clearly related.
- Go for the entertainment value!
- Put a link back to your #BlogBattle Short Story in the comments section
- Please tweet and otherwise share your battler buddies’ stories across social media.
- Use the hashtag #BlogBattle when tweeting all the stories so we can cross-share.
