Romance, a memento, and bandmaster

How in the world is “a memento” a subject?


A family momento fight has often led to murder. Looking for a lost momento could lead one to finding love by accident?

Great 41

Political Satire, a fighting chance, and a lobbyist.

This has so many possibilities with everything going on in the world, I am going to have to sleep on it to decide how to narrow it down. It feels almost like an open category...which makes it tougher...but this could be lots of fun.

Group 52

Drama, Golden Handshake, Air Traffic Controller

Going to be tricky coming up with an original premise. 

I have the added bonus of being busy the night that submissions are due.

It didn't help that I had to look up what a "Golden Handshake" is -- payment given to someone who retires early.

Despite this, I'm looking forward and very hopeful.

I have my story idea. Now on to research! It is how I begin all my stories. I am so glad I got romance out of the way in round 1. I won’t have to touch it in later rounds.

Trying not to start the challenge so pessimistic, but it’s really hard to get excited over the only genre out of all the offerings that I just cannot wrap my head around… I tried putting a PolSat/RomCom twist on my last Comedy just to submit something, and I judge said nothing happened in that story, so it “dragged on”. And at the time, that was truly my best possible attempt at Comedy. Eek Confused

Camsyn, same group and same feeling!

Not thrilled about comedy because I feel like when I try and write comedy on purpose it's not funny. Confused

Edited to add: I like the nostagia prompt - hilarity ensues 

Welp, here's to us giving it a shot...

Group 32- Romantic comedy - carefree - a fuddy duddy

Ugh! Not looking forward to this! How is carefree a subject? I can see it being a character trait, but a subject???

Hello group mate!

This is going to take some stewing...never had mystery before. Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with.
