I have a small story that has elements of historical fiction and sci-fi but does qualify as drama, not the best thing i've ever written. 

Still, it's lodged in my mind and won't leave so off it goes to submission! 


Hello, Groupmate! Looking forward to reading your entry if you decide to post it. I am very intrigued by the mix of genres. Best of luck!


I keep reading you action as “grifting” and now I kind of hope it is one day LOL


Group 39 / suspense thriller / creaking / awful

Sci fi. I tried not to skew silly or absurd, which is what happens when I write fast. Still, it veered into satire, which also happens on a regular basis. At least it's not as silly as the original idea with the title "The Heretofore Unknown Properties of Exoxylatriathon."

i was shocked that i wasn't burdened with a genre outside my regular brain.

i got sci-fi, believing, port

i ended up really relaxing into the tone of a Twilight Zone script in "Rod's Fancy Multiverse Photopsia Portal, Now In Its Seventh Year!"

starting at 350 words in the first draft was a deep knifing exercise! it feels like that was a pretty common experience?

good luck all!

Mine felt ridiculous! This is my first time on MF100. 

Must use the word nothing 

Must be fantasy genre 

Must involve skimping . 


I am happy with what I submitted. When can we post them for feedback in the forum?

When NYCM sends out an email saying that your story is officially submitted, you can start posting. When the submission deadline is Saturday, I think that means the email will go out some time tomorrow...usually around noon est.
