OK, we are past the deadline, so we can safely post titles and synopses. Do not post your actual story until you get the OK to do so from NYC Midnight; this will come via email, generally Tuesday or Wednesday of the following week. In this thread, you can post your prompts, title and logline.

35 - Fairy Tale / An examination / A wunderkind

Three Tales for Today

A gifted princess battles a witch, a young toymaker attempts to stump a meddlesome child, and a grieving farmer considers a sinister offer.

The Formula for Finding Love Again Over Forty

Here’s an unwritten rule for widowed women back to the dating scene: if you meet a curly-haired chemist who says most of the right things and only judges your cereal killer tendencies a little, it’ll be worth it.
