Flash!Mob Nov24: WAR OF THE WORDS

300 words... any genre... any style... go wild with the whatifs!

What if...

• the annual battle of the bards is rocked by scandal when one of the competitors uses a glamour spell to influence the judges
• a cursed manuscript has the power to change the history of the war
• secret codes are used to fuel a rebellion against an oppressive dictator who has banned poetry
• an enchanted quill that can be used to change history falls into the wrong hands
• a small village is hit by a spate of poison pen letters

Any of these or whatever springs to mind... have fun and happy writing.

Deadline: 28th November 2024
