One shot to write you
This story will be a collection full of random stories inspired from writing prompts off the internet. I take no credit for the prompts I find, but I'm simply using them to create cool short stories to share. The genres of these stories will vary greatly depending on the prompt and my mood, but most of them are feel good stories. Hope you enjoy! Credit any media used goes to rightful owners.Complete

Short stories written by MEEE
It's literally just a collection of paragraphs or a little more I wrote for my creative writing class. These are all the stories that I came u with in the span of 20 weeks. Some of the quite frankly aren't stories but actually rants in the end, that truly doesn't matter. Above the dashed lines are the prompts for the short responses and below are what I came up with. Some of them are really short and others I put a lot of thought into them soooo have fun:))))Complete

It Began with the Tap
(Playful satirical horror. 8000 word short story) Coming back to Madrid from a wedding in the UK, Jack and Maisy find a tap has been running in their flat for the last five days. In the middle of the latest global financial crisis, these hard-up English teachers have no space in their lives for crippling water bills: tensions rise. Jack accuses Maisy. Maisy accuses Jack. But as they desperately try to sleep-it was a long wedding party and a late night, after all-the true tap-running culprit reveals themselves to be an angry ghost with a very specific agenda. These two foreigners are taking up valuable housing stock that would be better off used by pure-blooded Spaniards. Jack and Maisy face the worst crisis of their lives, where they'll struggle to rest, struggle to adapt-struggle to live.Complete
