Lovers separated in the Fae Realms endlessly searching to be reunited. Two lost souls travelling together under the blood moon. Dramatic rescues from the Humbaba's clutches. The gaslamp fantasy of Nightingale makes for rich romantic fiction. So why not try your hand at creating some?
Please use no more than 1,200 words in your submission. If they're much longer than that, they may be disqualified regardless of quality. Feel free to include images. You're also more than welcome to enter this bounty with a video story. If you do, aim for at least two minutes of video.
As always, the winning stories will be judged on community reactions and our own judgement of quality and creativity.
Flash-fiction writing advice: Often, aspiring authors of flash fiction fall down by trying to write an entire story, complete with beginning, middle, and end. Flash fiction doesn't need to do that, and is usually better when it doesn't. Flash fiction should leave readers wanting more. It can leave questions unanswered and mysteries unsolved. Sometimes, it can be a single scene. To maximise your chances of winning a prize, we advise you keep that advice in mind.
