I wasn't going to write for round 2 given my dismal performance with the judges in round 1, but the prompt was easy so I banged out something.

With the most tedious title and logline ever, but *shrug*.

37: ghost / restaurant / wedding ring

First Date

First-time dating app user ShyTom95 has plenty of reasons to be nervous about his date. But when he has dinner with GINGERGRRL7 at upmarket restaurant Le Petit Mort, he finds he's met much more than his match...

Group 14 - Fairy Tale/ A swimming pool/ A ladder


THE STING IN THE WATER

When grief-stricken Jack saves Queen Bumblebee Ambrosia from certain death, he receives a magic token that will help him regain confidence in an unexpected way.


Bearing in mind my score in the first challenge it will be difficult to make it to round two, but I thought I'd better "die trying".

The silver lining is that...I surprisingly enjoyed writing a fairy tale.

Mystery genre was a struggle in 5 pages but was a fun challenge!
