Challenge 289:
HOT COCOA

It’s a classic staple of cozy nights by the fire, snow day afternoons, and romantic walks down a street lined with Christmas lights. Maybe it’s the fancy traditional homemade kind, carefully hand-mixed exactly to your preferences; maybe it’s the powdered kind in a paper packet dumped into just-under-boiling water, because that’s what you had time for; maybe it’s a special alien beverage, only available at one specific space station, and good luck getting it anywhere else in the galaxy. It’s not for everyone, but if you like it, it can make a night that much sweeter.

Write a story about hot cocoa.

BONUS GOAL: “Here, this will help.”

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

Challenge ends Monday, February 2 at 9:00PM EST.

Challenge 288:
INCONVENIENCES

Sometimes it’s the little things that really get you. The potted plant you could have sworn was out of the cat’s reach – except apparently it wasn’t. The lunch you were definitely going to pack, until you ran out of time. Someone needs to put gas in the car, and you have a meeting all morning, and there’s a horde of alien locusts on Main Street again so you’re going to have to work around that, too. It may or may not be anybody’s fault, exactly – except the alien locusts – but it sure is inconvenient!

Write a story about inconveniences.

BONUS GOAL: Cat-astrophe

If your submission features cats (alien cat-ish things count), it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge ends Monday, January 26 at 9:00PM EST.
