Welcome, Germies, to this month’s writing challenge! This challenge will begin today and will end October 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:
– In the spirit of Germ’s book of the month, Frankenstein, write a short story that includes an enigma of your choosing.
- An enigma is a person or thing that is mysterious, puzzling, or difficult to understand.
- Whether your story surrounds a mysterious event, includes a supernatural being, or includes a creature of your own creation, let your imagination roam free.
– Your story must be no longer than 800 words.
