Wow, a groupmate on page one! I hope you're more inspired by these than I am. I was like, Yawn... but hey, who knows what will happen in eight days? Good luck!

My mind immediately went to a mother posting a dating ad for her child on a bulletin board with the heading "daughter/son-in-law wanted"

The subject must, in some way, be fundamental to the plot. That means the plot could not occur without the subject being involved in the theme, conflict, or character choices. It can be literal or not literal, but it has to be present. Some examples of ways I've used past subjects, if it helps renewable -- a character abuses a (made-up) creative drug to force epiphanic work, and her internal character drama revolved around learning how to renew her own creative energy and embrace the risk of failure a lapse of judgment -- Character A made a highly irregular choice in their job to help Character B, which caused the rest of the plot biweekly -- Character A met with Character B every two weeks for an illicit love affair, under the guise that one was teaching the other another language honeymoon -- Character A's mother abandoned her to go on a "honeymoon" that was actually a drug-bender. The actual story occurred after the mother was already gone and the honeymoon part was communicated in a flashback. But since it was the frame behind the entire character conflict, drama, and resolution, it counted Edited by taaaylor - 21 Jan 2023 at 12:46am |

Ahh thank you for the commiserating! :) It sounds like the universe had it out for both of us, judging by your feelings about your prompt lolol. I hope you have fun with it. Mystery is definitely a tough one, but at least it's 2500 words!!

Group 215 (Rom-Com / Bulletin Board / Mother in Law) is my assignment too!
I'm trying to think of a creative take on these prompts, as judges seem to like the more creative interpretations... but it's not easy...
