Secret
Santa
For
the past eleven days, you have received a gift from an anonymous friend. Your
ego has celebrated each of the lovely gifts. However, today’s gift – the 12th
- wasn’t like the others. It’s a picture of someone you love (your choice: son,
daughter, mother, father, wife, husband, etc.) and they’re clearly doing
something they shouldn’t. A note demanding $25,000 in cash is clipped to the
photo. It will go live on the Internet if you don’t pay the $25,000 by noon
tomorrow.
In
500 words or less, write a scene or flash fiction story explaining how you
handle this. Send entries to mahalachurch@gmail.com. Deadline December 31, 2013.
1st
Place: Free edit by Mahala of first ten pages
of your WIP or short story of 2,500 words or less and a copy of It Takes a
Certain Type to be a Writer by Erin Barrett and Jack Mingo.
