November Short Story Submission

Welcome to November’s Interactive Short Story submission post.

I hope you enjoyed October’s story, but it’s time for a new story and I need your short story ideas!

What I Need From You

  • Character(s) – Protagonist, Antagonist, love interest, etc. Anyone you feel is important. (names optional)
  • Setting – Where does the story take place?
  • What happens – eg. [character x] and [character y] find a sack full of money and a severed finger.
  • Inciting incident – what changes? eg. When they return home with the money they receive a phone call telling them that they must double the finances in the sack within a week or face the same fate as the owner of the severed finger.
  • A small detail – something you want me to work in to the story. (optional)

You don’t have to include all of those details, though the more detail the better. If there’s something you want to add that you feel is important please do.

Try and put your idea into a short sentence or two, remembering that these submissions will go to vote, keep it snappy.

Submissions will go to reader vote on November 14th 2013 and will be open until midday on November 21st 2013.

I will write your idea as a short story for publishing on this blog.

Thank you for submitting an idea. Without you this blog won’t work.
I look forward to reading your ideas.

– Andrew
