Imagine if you could string a load of words together that somehow related to each other but didn’t have rhyme or chyme.😟

Now that is really easy as I do it pretty much every day!!! 😉

What the hell is prose?

(That is my submission)

A misspelling of cons' antithesis perhaps?

The topic is ghost/supernatural/scary story, not Brexit.

I might just incorporate Brexit. into my story.

I'm guessing May is thinking the goings on in Britain right now concerning that subject are certainly "scary".

Competition spoiler alert!

Rumour has it Moonbus is to write about alien abduction and the return of Elvis. (Bookies now have him at 50 -1).

@Ghost-of-a-Duke

Ahhh. Now I remember!

It truly has been a horror story of epic proportions! Not sure all the hell of Brexit could be contained in 800 words.

Title for it: "Indicative Vote"

"Alien abduction" ? No, no, that would be sic-fi. Think Lovecraft, Cthulhu Mythos, dank, fetid, ubiquitous slime oozing up from subterranean abysses of the collective id, triggering superstitious Oedipal/Electral complexes, phantom pains in limbs dismembered long ago, in a twilight nether-world of psychotic-delusional Brexit indigestion. Burp.

But I digress.

Technically that counts as your first submission.

Do you suggest that people submit their entries via the Forums?

I think this year people should submit telepathically.

I'd suggest that they remain anonymous, so that the pure merits of the writing and story can be judged, rather than personalities etc.

For what it's worth, I concur. 😉
