Writing Battle Fear: Prompt Reactions with Ryan and Autumn

Justin Creps & Jon Woolley Season 1 Episode 57

It's Writing Battle time again, and with Spooky Season upon us, it's fitting that we get to talk about the first-ever FEAR pro-judged competition! Justin & Jon are joined by longtime friends of the pod, Ryan Fleming and Autumn Bettinger as we discuss the possible genres (Horror, Mystery, Dystopia, and Thriller/Suspense) and reveal/react to our prompts. Our hearts will pound as we decide whether or not to push the button!

~~Episode Sponser~~

This episode's sponsor is Annie, once again! And she's using the spotlight this time to highlight The Booby Prize, an exciting new competition in support of a great cause: conservation of the Blue-Footed Booby.

However, it starts very soon!

WB raven, Steve Dixon is the founder. He’s recruited some fellow writing collaborators as judges and has a professional judge for the final decision.

The Booby Prize is a new and exciting quarterly global flash fiction contest with a first prize of £500. Simply, write a 500-word flash fiction story in just 48 hours using three prompts from a provided list.
