Challenge 257:
CHEMISTRY

There’s sparks flying in the lab tonight!

Maybe your scientists are hard at work trying to solve a mystery, cure a disease, or create some kind of weapon. Or maybe a handful of thoroughly unqualified amateurs got their hands on a chemistry kit, and they’re about to get in way over their heads. Or perhaps there’s no scientific chemistry going on at all, but there sure is something going on between those two people that their friends are noticing...

Write a story about chemistry.

BONUS GOAL: “Should it be turning that color?”

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

Challenge ends Monday, April 21 at 9:00PM EST.

Challenge 256:
MAN’S BEST FRIEND

Whether it’s the protagonist’s loyal golden retriever or the superhero squad’s crime-fighting hamster mascot, pets can add some fun complications to any story! Maybe your hero has always wanted a pet, but he’s allergic to anything with more fur than a goldfish. Maybe a stray cat made herself at home in the protagonist’s house when she left a window open, and now she has a cat whether she wants one or not. Maybe the team’s pet velociraptor (it’s a long story) goes on a few adventures of its own when they’re not paying attention.

Do your characters have pets? Do they want pets? What do their pets get up to?

Write a story about man’s best friend.

BONUS GOAL: “What is that in your mouth?”

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

Challenge ends Monday, April 14 at 9:00PM EST.
