Flash Contest #29, March 2021: Write a story set somewhere you’ve never been–our winners and their work
March 12, 2021
By Caleb Berg
Our March Flash Contest was based on our weekly creativity prompt #142, asking contestants to stretch the limits of their imagination in order to write a story set somewhere they had never been. As always, selecting the winners was exceedingly difficult due to the abundance of quality work, but this month our editors were left especially in awe as three different pieces were also selected to be published separately on the blog. These writer's comprehensive world building ability and infinite capacity for imagination were on display as we received submissions ranging from metafictional meditations on writing to poetic renderings of an encounter with a yeti to Frankenstein's spinning in perpetuity! We thank all who entered this month's contest and encourage everyone to keep submitting!
