So yeah! Have fun!

Write about your role model. It could be a well-known figure, a family member, or anyone who inspires you and has made a difference in your life.

Think about the person you were back then. What would you say to them? What do they need to hear? This is your space to be real. No judgment, no pressure. Whether it’s advice, forgiveness, or just a simple “you’re going to be okay,” let it out. Say what’s been on your heart. And who knows? Maybe your words will reach someone who’s facing the same struggles today, showing them they’re not alone.

Hey its me again, I’m excited to announce a new project focused on feminism, and I’d love for all of you to be part of it. Over the next month, we’ll be putting together a few pages dedicated to feminism and the issues that matter to women right now. This is a chance to share your voice, your story, and your thoughts on topics that inspire you.

You can write about why you’re a feminist, what inspired you to embrace feminism, or dive into any other theme related to women’s rights and gender equality that you feel passionate about. This is a space to explore what feminism means to you and how it shapes our world.

I’ll gather all of your entries and turn them into a story, weaving together everyone’s unique perspectives. So take a little time, have fun, and make this your own. Let’s create something powerful and inspiring together

Remember: You are not just some body, you are somebody.

Be a Feminist: For Your Mother, Your Sister, Your Aunt, Your Grandma. For Every Woman on This Planet -and For Yourself.

Good luck <3

Im gonna start with the first entry. This one won’t count; it’s just here to give you some inspiration and help spark ideas. Can’t wait to see what you all create!

Choose a line or lyrics from a favorite song and use it as the opening line of your story. Let the lyric guide the plot, mood, and direction of your piece.(I like for example the songs of nirvana, the cranberries and stuff like that)

Feel free to talk about what's on your mind right now. Whether it’s something that bothers you or just a thought that keeps coming back, here’s your chance to let it out. Write about anything you want to get off your chest

This competition invites you to write a letter—but not just any letter. This is a chance to pour out the thoughts and feelings you’ve kept close, the ones that live in the quiet spaces of your mind and heart. Maybe it’s something you’ve wanted to tell someone but couldn’t find the right words. Maybe it’s a message for yourself, or for someone you’ve never been able to fully reach. It could be something that weighs on you, that you feel ready to release here, where it can finally breathe.

Let this letter be a place for honesty, for vulnerability, for things you may never say aloud. It can be a message of love, hope, frustration, or longing. There’s no right way to express what’s in your heart—simply let your words flow freely, without judgment or expectation.

I am looking forward to read your letters, to see the pieces of your unique stories, thoughts, and emotions. Take your time, be gentle with yourself, and allow this letter to be as true as you feel it needs to be. (There are no limits—write as few words as you like, or let your thoughts flow into thousands.)

Write a story from the prospective of an inanimate object.

This contest winners will be determined by vote. Highest number of votes after 4 weeks wins! Enter anytime during this 4 weeks.

The prompt is, Scammer's Horror! You may write in any genre, fiction or not, as long as you mention a character who is horrified to find a scammer's message. It can be on their profile, they find out their boyfriend is one, a text message, or a friend's woes over being scammed. The sky's the limit!

I tried to pick an experience just about anyone has nowadays. Writers can use an experience they had to express their frustrations, and often they feel better! Writing is therapeutic!

Please keep stories rated G so your little sister can read it, too.

So, write your story, and let's set a maximum length of around 5000 words . Post the link to your story here. You can write it any length below that, so you flash fiction lovers can have a field day. There is no limit to the number of entries for this contest. I'm new to Penana, so I thought a contest might be a nice way to start out, while people here in the USA are preparing for Halloween on Oct 31.

Not from the USA? No problem! You might favor us with a story about Fall that deals with a scammer. It doesn't even have to be a Halloween story. If you're a romance writer, you can make it Valentine's Day. As long as there is a scammer in there somewhere to throw chaos into a character's life, you're good, no matter if your holiday is in a different season, or just a vacation trip!

Be sure to vote on someone else's stories. If there aren't votes on the stories, my contest will be here to haunt you! Whooooooo!

Write a horror story with a slight twist. The main character isn't scared of the horrific things happening and is more annoyed than anything. An example of this would be the character being left a house from a dead estranged relative. When they arrive they notice paranormal things happening and instead of being scared they get pissed off by the issues the paranormal events cause. They then see a ghost in the hallway and immediately jump on the offensive. Telling the ghost to "Piss off" And threatens to "Kick its ass"
