Challenge 265:
TRICKSTER
a dishonest person; a person skilled in the use of tricks and illusion; a cunning or deceptive character appearing in various forms in the folklore of many cultures

Maybe he’s a con man, tricking other people out of their money or time. Maybe she’s a stage magician who can make your keys disappear and reappear in the blink of an eye. Maybe they’re an ancient being who’s been around for a very long time and enjoys playing tricks on unsuspecting mortals.

How does it go? Are your tricksters good at what they do, or could they use a little more practice? Do your other characters enjoy the experience?

Write a story about a trickster.

BONUS GOAL: “You can just call me ‘goddess’. Most people do.”

If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge 264:
SUMMER VACATION
Ah, summer! It’s a good time for a nice vacation, a break from school, work, or our heroes’ usual adventures. Maybe there’s a traditional holiday or festival to attend, or maybe it’s just an excuse to go to the beach, or camping, or just stay home and relax.

But sometimes things don’t always go to plan! Maybe it’s a hundred degrees the entire week, or maybe it won’t stop raining. Maybe the adventure follows our heroes to the beach, and now instead of relaxing they’re right back on the job. Maybe they just picked a vacation that involves several million mosquitoes.

Write a story about summer vacation.

BONUS GOAL: “What are we going to do today?”

Challenge 263:
GENIUS
Some characters are smart. These characters go beyond that.

Whatever their field of expertise is, they’re one of the best – or maybe the best. They solve problems nobody else can, and they make it look easy. Maybe they’re an expert in a record-breaking number of fields, or have more degrees than any human being should have time to acquire; maybe they’re only an expert in one thing, but they’re far, far better than anyone else.

But being a genius comes with drawbacks! Maybe they struggle to make friends, because they’re too focused on academics. Maybe they’re brilliant, but nobody believes them. Maybe all of their expertise has done nothing to prepare them for the new crisis they’ve just been presented with.

Write a story about a genius.

BONUS GOAL: “I can't believe I just said that."

If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge 262:
SOULMATES
n. a close friend or romantic partner with whom one has a unique deep connection based on mutual understanding and acceptance

Soulmates – a myth, a once-in-a-lifetime experience, or something a little more supernatural? Maybe soulmates are just someone you have a special connection with; maybe they’re something mystical, something predestined for you one way or another, a kind of magic found in special marks or mind-links. Or maybe they don’t exist at all.

Do your characters believe in soulmates? Do they have one, or want one? Is it an option at all for them?

Write a story about soulmates.

BONUS GOAL: “Do you believe in love at first sight?”

If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!
