First time posting so hope I'm doing this right! (My first NYC competition was last year's Short Story and I'm currently taking part in the 250 Microfiction comp, so finally getting to grips with the forums).

Group 51: Romantic Comedy / Coffee break(s) / Germophobe

Title: Mudlarking on Nexus

Synopsis: An intertidal archaeologist at the centre of the universe meets a germophobic geographic assessor for the dominant coffee chain while searching for meaning.

I've never written RomCom before and I wasn't very inspired by the prompts so this was tough! Not sure what I ended up with was even Rom or Com, but that's for the judges to decide.

I also hate writing synopses!

Group 35
A/A - a crash course - fortune hunter

The Futurist


The world’s most renowned futurist honors a young journalist’s request to meet with him at his private estate. She quickly discovers she’s not the only visitor on the schedule.


NYC Newbie: I didn't see that I needed a synopsis until just before I submitted, so I feel like it could have been better after reading all of yours.

That sound intriguing and creepy. I'm glad to find another Group 156-er and I'm looking forward to reading your story.
