I don't really mind, but voting would be harder in a free - for - all? I suggest we make it a thousand words max, it's a nice round figure, and have say, six titles for a vote.
My suggestion; The Mountain.

Which so far would give us;

A Dystopian Future
Happy Ending
Freewheel
The Mountain

But as I say, I'm easy whatever happens.
How about something escapist like Escape or Childhood Revisited?

I'm in with or without a theme. A theme is challenging but then just writing anything is a challenge!
You are always a threat in the competition sir! (Believe I have given you top marks for the last couple of years).

My vote...is there one?...goes with my suggestion but then that's not surprising. I am becoming a bit "Trumpian".

😞


I like the idea of Escape. It's broad enough to encompass a lot of possibilities.

How about a broad theme of 'making the best of things.' (Overcoming adversity).

(Inspired by my favorite quote, 'If life gives you lemons, make lemonade.' ).

just floating an impossible thought

i think i'll attempt, as it's prolly going to be impossible for me to do, but i shall write a mystery story encrypted
part of reading and understanding the story will be the decryption of said story

of course, now that i've revealed the deceptistory, the ghost will collude with the flash and my efforts will be dashed

i weep for my failure

As I said, it would be great to 'read' lots of positive stories at this time.

Ok, just seems like you are putting a lot of suggestions for someone who isn't going to be involved.

I had the privilege of choosing the theme last time, and I didn't participate. I agree with Goad's suggestion 'Escape'.

Excellent!

(Although 'escape' wasn't my suggestion). 😀

It wasn't? What was your suggestion?

I was too quick reading the earlier posts: your suggestion was 'making the best of things.' Am I right this time? 🙂
