500word death environment life manmade nationalgeographic ocean planetorplastic plastic shortstory writingcontest

Aquatic life gets affected by the increased amounts of plastic in the ocean every year, more than any other area in the world. In this story, a stingray encounters a sudden tide full of plastic that destroys her entire family, along with the ecosystem around her.

How we choose to live today can impact every other aspect around us for tomorrow- from people to animals to even the environment as a whole. What would you choose- the planet or plastic?

Till death do us part by gernonino

Is our main character able to overcome terrific odds or is she part of the problem?

Europa by nilan10

In order to embark on a mission to discover alien life on the icy moon of Jupiter Maria must leave her life on Earth behind, including her father and her seven-year-old son Diego. She thought the hardest part of the mission would be saying goodbye, but little does she know what awaits her and her crew on Europa, an environment that has never been explored from the surface until this mission. Perhaps alien life was never meant to be explored by humans... Will she fulfill her promise to her father and son to make it home alive, or will she fail to make good on that promise like her mother did when she was a little girl? Note: This story was written during a challenge to write an entire book in one week! I vlogged the whole process on my YouTube channel (Patrick Procrastinates Writing), my Instagram (@memesforwriters), and my TikTok (@memes4writers). Be sure to check those out if you want a behind the scenes on my writing process behind this project! I will continue to work on Europa, but I will not update this version as it shows what I was able to accomplish in the seven days of the challenge. Please let me know what you think (don't be afraid to be mean).

Love Deep Like The Sea (English) by czageri

A romantic novella about the importance of preserving our oceans and the suffering we inflict on other creatures every day. I dedicate this story to my dearest Eva, who always believed in me and gave me courage in moments of deep hopelessness. Thank you. ♥️

Shoreline by AliceajadeNaidoo

You never really know what's around the next bend, whether it's an opportunity to a better life, or a sorrowful condolence of breathe taken away. Life can be a mystery. It can be pleasant and it can be bad, but what we need to remember in both times is that these events are controlled by One. What we need to remember is that God is in control. During the high tides and the low. God will always be greater than the highs and lows♡♡

Ocean Rules | SAMS AU by ReadingStatic

A story with pirates and traumatized characters is great. Oceans Rules is a Sun and Moon show based book, though is placed in a competely different dimension, and doesn't follow the events in the lore at all. • Humans • Family • Relationships • Trauma • Solar × Ruin • Lunar × Gemini • Foxy × Sun This story is gonna have a mix of flashbacks, flashforwards, though is going to be mostly slice of life. If there are any spelling mistakes please tell me! I have struggled with spelling and grammar for quite some time, and help would be heavily appreciated!! Perspective's will shift throughout the story and chapters. YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE CAUGHT UP WITH THE LORE OF TSAMS TO UNDERSTAND THE STORY. Cover art made by me!

Terra Firma by foxjenz

What happens when the planet you are from no longer sustains life because of the generations that lived before you. The blue marble that shines so brightly like a Gem in our solar system has gone, replaced with a dark and poisonous planet. Ten years ago the earth had a major Exodus, evacuating as many humans as possible. Luna was left behind to face the devastation, to try and survive in a bleak and obsolete world. Barely able to breathe the toxic air, life is no longer about living, but surviving.

Looking For Hope by NefertitiFenison

After major coastal cities sink to the bottom of the ocean at the end of the twenty-first century, the richest inhabitants of Earth escape the planet to build new colonies in a distant solar system. Thirty six light years away from the Milky Way galaxy, centuries have passed and humanity is well established. Among the most notable establishments is a prestigious university for the study of alien biology. Moira, a girl with a pervasive developmental disorder, but a talented student nonetheless, navigates the challenge of interplanetary university life as she researches a rare and endangered species. When a deeper threat emerges that challenges the existence of these creatures, she must team up with her classmates and find a solution to a problem much bigger than they could ever hope to be. ***** Credits: The cover is courtesy of the brilliant @vertigo_moon from The Vertigo Graphics while the line editing/proofreading/grammar check was done with a lot of input from Halyn Bleiz a.k.a vin_elend from the Floret community and Katie Marie from the Coven of Bookworms community. They have my gratitude. The blurb was written with some help from @RowanCarver and I am thankful for her feedbacks.

Sand Red by allinaac

The year is 8 billion and the Sun is dying. The richest of humanity has made its way to the distant Life planet Cerulone, leaving behind billions to die. Fast-evolving alien flora invades local ecosystems, converting acres and acres of land to thorny waste. Cultivation is impossible, and life on Earth is nearly extinct. The last humans on the face of the planet are plagued by a fatal disease, starvation and unquenchable thirst. In the midst of this survives Kun, a part of a band of youths. They fight to live each day, stealing and killing for anything they need as is the way of this world. Little do they know what is coming their way. A dangerous journey through the vast desert that is Earth for a sliver of hope. Is it worth it?

The Red Rose by gothicsyn

I'm 2034 the world came to an end, governments collapsed, towns and cities descended into chaos. As it begins to right itself one girl decides her life is no longer another's to own. Tasked with traversing the barren world to make.contact with a city miles away, she is thrown into a story of chaos and survival. TW: This deals with themes of abuse and violence.
