Let Off Some Steam

[Styngent]

The title comes up every week or so, you take it, you produce a short story of any style or genre between 1-5k in words length.

Simple as.

Side note, don't necessarily entitle your work based on the given title, simply use it as a working inspiration or starting point. The two must have some form of fathomable connection.

Ok, this weeks title is "Dreamscape".

Go get em!

I'll see what I can come up with over the week

Okay I know it's been a week already but I've had an idea for it now (always the hardest part for me..) so I'll try and set fingers to keyboard when I get home from work today.

Edit:
Work in (very slow) progress. 710 words into what I anticipate will be 4000+. I guess it'll be another week.

Okay, longest week ever, but I finally finished Dreamscape. It's 4000 words longer, and 10 months later than I had intended. Sad thing is, it only really took me 3 afternoons once I applied myself. I figured out some tips to help me if I ever have to do something like this again too.

Ah well, I still beat Styngent to the punch!

Probably too late for it to matter, since these forums have been dead for a long while, but here it is regardless:

Yeah I know .pdf I'm coming round to it tbh, for one thing, you don't have to see squiggly lines where Word disagree with spelling/grammar!

The ball is in your court now Styngent, get to it! Once you manage it, I'll pick a title and we can spend another 12 months ignoring it..
