May Writing Challenge

Welcome, Germies, to this month’s writing challenge! This challenge will begin today and will end May 31st. However, you are welcome to come back anytime to complete the challenge and submit it below in the comments section. We will pick a few of our favorites that are submitted during this month, though, and they will be featured in our Lit section.

Writing Challenge:

— Write a short story based on the above photo.

— Your story must be no longer than 800 words.

— Germ’s story of the month is Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, so glean inspiration from the mystical and the magical alike.
