Fantasy Mashup Writing Contest

Theme: What happens when two completely different fantasy elements collide? A dragon who loves knitting? A mermaid who can control fire? A vampire afraid of the dark? In this contest, your challenge is to take two unexpected fantasy elements and blend them into a single, cohesive story!

Challenge: Pick two fantasy concepts, creatures, or abilities that don’t typically go together and create a unique world where they make perfect sense. The more unusual the combination, the better! Will it be a comedic adventure, a heartwarming tale, or a dark and mysterious legend? It’s all up to you!

Guidelines:

• # Choose two distinct fantasy elements that normally wouldn’t mix and merge them into your story.
•  # Make sure the story flows naturally—your world should feel believable even with its strange mix!
• # Maximum word count: 1,500 words.
• 
  

Break the rules of fantasy and create something entirely new! Whether your story is whimsical, epic, or emotional, let your imagination run wild. ✨
