A book of the hundreds of short stories I've written, but never completed. It's silly, but means a lot to me and my mission to find my love of writing again. Most of them are very short, but I hope you enjoy them. Some were started using prompts and others were completely random. 90% were written on the back of class work in high school and even some tests. Some are darker than others and there's range of genres from; poetry to supernatural, romance to mental health. I was always self conscious about my writing, but tried to write constantly. It was a way to clear my mind and feel heard. I look back and read these stories and wonder why I was so hard on myself; they may not be great, but I'm so proud of my younger self. Some are subject to change as I continue to go through papers finding more to the stories.

I like to write. As you may be able to tell. I haven't been very good at writing lately. As you may also have been able to tell. That's why I've decided to write a short story collection. The stories won't interlink, some may vary wildly and you might even wonder if they were written by the same person (the answer is yes). Overall, I'm aiming to write 23 stories, which was one per day for 23 days but I failed at that (*seethes* college work...) so now I'm just aiming to finish it before winter is over! The stories won't be very long - I'm only allowed to write for 10 minutes per story, just to get me going again (and literally warm my fingers, I get really really cold fingers for some reason) and the most I've ever written in that time is around 500 words. If you want to check out all of the prompts in my challenge head over to my blog - hannahbanana98[at]wordpress[dot]com - and have a look. I hope you like the stories! Feedback is appreciated. :) Completed Feb 29th 2016. Thanks for reading. :D
