To Warm Frozen Fingers // A Short Story Collection
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. :DComplete
A Baker's Dozen of Christmas What-Ifs
Thirteen short stories I submitted as entries into the "Twelve Prompts of Christmas" contest, created by Carol Ann Shaw (@WriterOnTheIsland). Each of these stories is based on real-life events. Several of them are plain-old non-fiction. Can you guess which ones? The rest of them tell the real-life story, but from a different branch of the alternate-Universe tree. Examples of ways in which reality has branched: What if my Dad went pro as an Opera singer? What if I only had a couple of siblings, rather than six of them? What if I didn't move to New York, but instead stayed with Boston Ballet Company? What if my first boyfriend had been older than me instead of younger than me? What if my high-school crush and I had crossed paths again after high-school? What if my brother came out at Christmas Dinner instead of after my Dad's passing?Complete
