Announcing our Wherefore Art Thou story competition

Quote by Piquet

Did somebody say "metal chick"?

Oo, goth or black metal from the look of them. Fun. Those tend to be very into ... sin. 😋

feel like I may have jinxed myself by saying ' I had to come up with an entry for this theme since its so close to my brand. 🙁😢 I can't come up with an idea. the word count cap feels discouraging. and I have a lot of IRL stuff going on that is possibly silencing my muse. Oh well. Guess we'll see if I come up with anything at all or if I just need to take a break from comps or sit this one out. Even though my comp entry stories are the ones that get the most attention cos my stories are too weird/non-mainstream to get much/any attention otherwise.

.... idk, but either way lots of time left between now and the comp deadline, the muse tide can change lots before then. or not. who knows. guess we'll find out ..

Maybe you are putting too much pressure on yourself? My problem was I don’t think I can top the art-themed stories I’ve already published. I just decided to write something I loved—-music. Take a break and come back to it. You’ll think of something to fit in 5K.

Thanks I hope so.

All those years ago when I went to Paris and saw the Mona Lisa, there was something about that smile. It simply stayed with me. Then, this competition, well, it stirred my memories and my imagination. I really hope that you get a chance to read it and then that you see what I saw.

A slice of bonkers as a thank you to those who work hard to make these comps happen. Might not be an area I know anything about, but that's not always the point.

I have 4,999 words. Now, to see if I like them, and I have a little room there to make a few edits. 😳 If there is one thing about it being so hot in Paris right now, I can write. Painting with oils in this heat is a very risky business - it cracks easily. Anyone writing in this competition can have that one on me. 😘
