Because I have a deep love for writing prompts, I've decided to create a challenge myself.
If you decide to do this, please tag your story with #septemberendschallenge and/or dedicate it to my main account @iloveyouandilikeyou so I can read it and add it to my reading list! :)
-Please try and keep the prompts somewhat in order (a few moved around is fine).
-You do not have to complete this in thirty days straight.
-You can combine this with any other writing challenge.
-It can be one continuous story or a series of one shots.
-Please don't steal my prompts and claim them as your own.
-A link to all the prompts will be in the external link.
