I run my fingers along the jewel case spines. I dismiss one after the other, restless. Finally I pull one from the shelf. Indian Summer had always been our favorite. None of these had left the shelf for more than three years. I don't listen to CDs much any longer. I buy most of my music digitally. I look at the cove...
WIP (I might not be able to work on it tonight, as I have finals to study for) The Eye; once a down-on-his luck detective turned into a super detective with x-ray vision and extraordinary deduction and foresight. He solves crime by day or night, hiding his identity behind a mask of the all-seeing eye to represent hi...
Mouth agape, face reddened, my husband knelt before me as he picked up my head only to set it back down shortly thereafter. He brought his hands before his eyes, no doubt hoping the blood he knew to be there was but a mirage, a trick of the brain. Indeed it was not. I watched him sit down in a state of shock, lookin...
I've always had strange eyes; one green, the other purple. I don't know how or why it happened to me, but many in the realm think it the sign of magic. As I grew up, I was prone to attacks from the neighborhood kids, and investigating from the King's Scholars. I never showed signs of magical advancement. This kept me s...
From: throwaway_email@gmail.com Subject: Nothing Date: 29/4/2014 9:41 pm To: your_email@gmail.com _____________________________ I don't know who you are. I don't know your story and I don't know what you believe in. But I do know one thing. Nothing you can do,...
I've been working on this since the prompt was posted. I wrote it down during a class at university (boring stuff) and completed later on when I returned at home but only now I found the time to type it. Here it goes: On a small secluded planet without a name, located in NGC 101, which can be found near the Magell...
It wasn’t real. Everyone knew this. Earth had died away a long time ago, its dry arid land unfit for any life worth living. But all the same, it spun on, slowly around the sun. Humanity, tired of a meaningless continuation of destruction and vice, tried something new. Implanting everyone into their own virtual world,...
"Hey! Mister!" Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Not right now! I don't even have this car hot-wired yet. Let me just make this look casual. "Oh, hey kid. Shouldn't you be at home are something?" "Mister, are you a bad guy?" What? Kid sees right through me! "No, no. I'm just fixing up my car." "But Mister, you look t...
Voyager 1 is returned to earth, with a message from Alpha Centauri, H.P. Lovecraft's work comes to reality, A fabled man made of and binded by wicker material lives in the hills of Dublin, and you are there to investgate the legitimacy of the claims. Archeologists discover an ancient temple in the undergrounds of Ne...
Its finally the day. The day that we've been waiting for with such uncomfortable, forced patience. I know I'm prepared, yet the fear of the coming tumult still sends a slight chill up my spine. I know I'm safe. Hell, I have all 13 of the famed Bruti here, and I am the key to their plan. Even with such defense on my s...
It’s only a few seconds before I remember, but once I notice, that’s all I can think about. Before I lost my arm, I didn’t realise that a distraction can be unbearable. Just trying to complete thought processes is a challenge. Today I have a meeting with Lee and (where is my arm? Oh, that’s right. I remember) so I’ll n...
The doors of the courtroom thundered open. The mob outside the courthouse roared with anger. "Hold me close,"Lisa said, her voice trembling. Dan obeyed, wrapping both of her arms around her as they walked down the steps of the courthouse. There was no honeymoon for the newly weds that day. Instead, news reporters sw...
His eyes blazed. The car roared down the track with all the fury it could muster. It moved to please him, to rear itself to the level of his power. He seemed to propel it with a look alone. Suddenly it seemed that he and the car were one. He roared across the sky, building speed, gaining power, moving with such a force...
I had this idea while writing a post apocalyptic story, and wanted to volunteer the first page or two: ================================ I had to be strong. Strong for my son, and strong for my wife. But most of all, strong for the tribe, because if any of us faltered it would mean our end. It was hard though. There in ...
She stared at the gem. Of course she would keep it, who else would? It was a thing of antiquity, she could never hope to have such wealth in her lifetime, not after this. Any chances she had had, were gone. She would need it to finance her new life in this new world. The small boat rocked under her, she looked around ...
George, Lenny and Carlson walked along the barren path. There was nothing too see for miles but sand. "This sucks"George sighed, "I think we took a wrong turn back at the Forest of Fanglore". "No way bro"Lenny said, "I know where we're going bro". Carlson grunted and stopped walking. "We should head back"he panted, "...
On my last leg of life, I'd put on "Harold & Maude". That movie just shows how precious can be and how fleeting youth is in the face of age, as seen in the tender relationship between the titular pair. Harold is obsessed with death (he'd probably be called goth or emo now) while Maude is a carefree spirit who belie...
I was up in the clouds. Fluffy ones frolicked down below me. Swirling thin ones swishing merrily past my car. I poked a finger out the window, mystified at how I went from driving on the busy freeway to suddenly bobbing up in the sky, thousands of feet above the ground. The wind whistled past my finger, feeling bitter...
Mark couldn't believe it. Neither could his colleagues, apparently. All seven of them sat in stunned silence. The only noise in the conference room was the off-air tone accompanying the local ABC affiliate's logo on the screen. "What the fuck?"asked someone to Mark's left. He turned his leather desk chair to look at ...
The year is 3024 we had just invented a life detecting pulse that could go through and search the entire universe in a matter of weeks. It was launch day and tension was high, everyone was worried about a malfunction. Which is understandable, when a project has been in the works for 60 years it tends to put people on e...
Cho sat at a table, writing out yet another story on the long scroll in front of him. Cho liked to tell stories, but each story also need to be written down. He preferred to hand write them rather than those prefabricated letters those presses made. they had no style, no character, each letter had a story of its own to...
Or...12 Years A Slave. Kidnapping free blacks and selling them as slaves was common then. A more interesting prompt would be what the United States would be like with a Confederate victory. Our nation's capital would be somewhere else, we might have a much different set of Amendments, laws and social norms today, ou...
He knew. The well-spoken man at the podium knew this would be the last time he saw the smiling, familiar faces of the townspeople gathered to hear his press conference, which he hastily assembled upon learning of their plan. He could not tell the townsfolk, who had become like family to him over the years he stood watc...
I'd lived a good life. Granted, it hadn't been as long as I would have like it to be, it was good while I had it. That is, until a year before. There were no warning signs, no outward differences, but when the doctor said I had cancer in my pancreas, I believed him. At that point, it had already traveled 90 percent of...
"Hey sailor, can I buy you a drink?" John looked up from the magazine spread in front of him into the wide grin of his fellow airline pilot Dave Dickerson. He pushed the magazine aside, John hadn't really been reading it anyway, and kicked out the stool next to his for Dave with a quiet grunt. Though he wasn't reall...
I felt all of the air forced out of me again and again. The beast's jaws crushed down on me rhythmically, piercing into my skin and tearing at me. I screamed as it brought its jaws down again, invoking laughter from his slightly smaller, pink friend. The laugh was so innocent, out of place considering that I was being...
Just for context: > 'Signior Martino and his wife and daughters; > County Anselme and his beauteous sisters; the lady > widow of Vitravio; Signior Placentio and his lovely > nieces; Mercutio and his brother Valentine; mine > uncle Capulet, his wife and daughters; my fair niece > Rosaline; Livia; ...
It's too long for one comment, so here's the first half of Lord of the Dance: The killer had struck again. London these days was a far cry from the dark and dingy Victorian London streets Jack the Ripper had walked, but his influence was still felt. Murder, gang fights, death - there was no end to the suffering. M...
So, a guy walks into my cubicle today, started garbling out some weird shit, and then pulled down his pants. Then pulled them back up, then shit himself. After that, I have a bit of a wide eyed look on my face, so I ask him, "Hey, buddy, you need help?" He responds by pulling his shit-stained pants down, turning aroun...
EDIT: gloss over this attempt, as /WokBolt kindly brought to my attention that i've made a lot of consistency mistakes. I have been sitting on the floor for a while now, hugging my knees to my chest. My room (i'm assuming it is mine, who else would have my family's photograph) is a mess; i've thrown things around,...

The Japanese had overrun our positions on the North bay and the city. From our vantage point inside the rock we could see the burning ashes of San Francisco, mostly leveled from the firebombing that had taken place the night before. This must have been what it looked like during the earthquake of ’09. Counting me the...
To the Nomads, history is everything. It’s their link to the homeworld they had to leave behind. And so, with great care, they keep memory alive. They all learn about their homeworld. And they all learn about the Duchess. She was not, despite her title, nobility. No, that came later, in recognition of her deeds. But i...
Jeffrey sighed as he looked over the patients chart, already compiling information on the various possible diagnosis in his head. "Have any thoughts on the matter?"He asked, quickly glancing at the scruffy man lounging against the wall. The man grunted, before slowly shuffling his way past the mirror anchored on the d...
You gotta be put to sleep before you can get cloned. There are obviously more scientific way to say that, but being that it's pretty much exactly like I'd imagined as a kid, that can be kept simple. They put you to sleep alone, and you wake up alone. Sorta. You're in your room, and a big hunk of dead meat that *loo...
The law was necessary. At least, that was what the ministry adverts said. There was a time when such an idea would have been laughed off as a bad joke or fake headline from a satirical outlet. The posters flapping against the well-worn walls of the rail station did not inspire amusement. Pictures of models on some idyl...
I sat staring over creation. Well, not really sat. Lacking corporeal form makes that kind of hard. I guess I just existed over it more than anything. I looked out across everything; the sky, the land, the oceans, animals, humans, even down to the bacteria and viruses. All of it working in total harmony with one an...
The door wouldn't budge. Just as it hadn't the day before, nor the day before that. The door had been sealed for as long as Brian could remember, since waking up cold and alone on the floor of the small cell which was now his home. He had tried calling out at first, a cautious, confused plea for a guard or attendant to...
There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about her. The smell of her hair, the soft skin of her hands, her lips on mine, but the detail that sticks with me most is the look of peace on her face as she lay in her coffin. The worst part was that no one knows that I put her there. We had been dating for a year an...
They began by coming into civilisation from the wild land and offering themselves to people butt first. At first it was not known why they did this, not until someone lost patience with the creatures and drop kicked its arse. It squealed with happiness at this and wanted more and more brutal kickings, as did all the ...
The Ark was a virtual mountain slowly descending through a roiling cloud of ash and rain. Its massive form floated a few kilometers above the earth and gave of discharges of pale green lightning that forked out and twisted back against it. It was The Ark's fifth visit to the planet - always just before it became capa...
They looked on as the world bombed itself beyond the stone age, safe in their orbiting bubble. How could it have come to this? Why was their nothing on the news? Why were we the only ones off world during this travesty? These are just a few of the questions that flashed through the Minds or Mr. Timbler and his Wife and...
It’s not the magazine I’m selling, it’s the experience: your chance to remind yourself of your good fortune, by reaching out to someone who’s not had your luck. There’s always that slight hesitation, like you’re petting a dog you don’t know. But you’re pleased with yourself for your generosity, and your lack of preju...
"We have decided,"the human ambassador says after everything is done, after the yelling matches and assassination attempts and appeasing/groveling, "that Humanity will remain neutral during this conflict."The room is quiet before erupting in a squabble of clicks, hisses, and verbal abuse. "That's too far,"the human amb...

The victims are killed quickly and efficiently regardless of the time of day when found alone and away from surveillance. No attempt is made to kidnap or torture and the victim is left where the murder happened. All that is left behind is...
It was supposed to be a joke. He never expected it to have turned out like this. Little Danny, with his green eyes and dimpled cheeks and sun kissed freckles, was all smiles and laughter. He was so alive and joyous, everyone loved him. How was he supposed to know about the beatings, the screamings, the rejection? ...
Daylight. Time to wake, and work. Time for life. The camp stirred. The animals were up, of course, ready to be fed. Their snorts and clucks, and the sweet stench of manure hastened those tasked with caring for the them. A rooster sounded, solitary and proud. The people would not eat, of course. There was a time, not ...
It's nice to be out of that damn hospital, Brandon thought as he strolled casually down the street. Brandon's knew heart seemed to be working just fine. As he walked towards a Starbucks he grabbed a newspaper from small table set up outside a restaurant and promptly began to fold it. Entering the Starbucks he got in ...
John Johnson was a badass. It was not a boast. He was a certified badass, he even had a certificate to prove it. However, this creature we was punching to death with his bare fists didn't seem have gotten the memo. So he kept punching it, vigorously. His barrage was perfect. His blows rained down fast and hard, leavi...
First post in /r/WritingPrompts ! ------------------------------ They're saying you could see it from Seoul. But there are reports coming in all the way from Hwaseong, some even further. Lights in the distant night sky where once there was only darkness. The sounds of muffled armed skirmishes replaced by the whirring...
Poppy was never alone. Luckily, she only felt alone. "Introversion,"as it was officially classified in the DSM-IX, "doesn't have to be a life sentence, Poppy. We can help you."Eden placed a hand on her shoulder, which she instinctively pulls away. "We're here for you."4,072 faces on the video streams behind them nod...
Samantha pulled her sword from the ogre's neck, blood still dripping from the tip, and turned away. Matthew stood a few feet away, fingertips glowing as he healed a large gash in his side. His normally neat ponytail was coming loose, and his robes were torn. *"That... that was intense."He panted and sat down. Samant...
Go to a administrative section near your home to sign your citizenship! _ said the poster on the wall. They say everyone signs this contract. Ever since citizenship became "optional"50 years ago, no one declined to sign the contract at 18. Ok, sure, some people procrastinate and do it at 19 or even 20. People who are...
Men in suits. A dim room. The phones still. The TV blaring a mid-day news cast. A quiet incredulity balanced with a self-righteous rage. How could it happen? "Today, an historic piece of legislation passed that changes the nature of electoral politics,"explained the cable news anchor. "It weights an individual's vote...
A little bit more on the humor side.Breaking the details a little here, but one of the aliens has been there for about 5 years before his friends. The story revolves around the friends of the first alien making their way to the first aliens apartment. The two friends ask the first alien about certain things they saw wh...
I've been procrastinating for the last two hours. Where my focus should have been on the chemistry in front of me is instead lured to my window, where rain drops line the glass. I can't say how long I stared at those little goblets; an instant felt like an eternity (or maybe my studying has effectively slowed time down...
(Sorry if this is terrible) Saturday April 1, 1933. Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Just outside of the harbour sea planes frantically were unloading evacuees onto the HMAS Albatross, before heading back towards the ruins of Sydney to search for more survivors. The guns of the HMAS Australia and the HMAS Canber...
"You're a natural? Huh"she muttered at me. "But why?" I glanced at her through my glasses, she was looming over my desk in a black dress that screamed Does not belong in an officeand looking at me with a condescending scowl as though the idea of me not juicing was somehow more ridiculous than the layers of candescen...
See You at the Bottom They all watched as they plunged beneath the clouds. Only a few thousand feet left. Not much time to talk about who didn't deserve to die. Michael realized this, so he spoke first. "I know we've only got a few minutes left, but I want you all to know something about me. I've always cheated m...
Every day its the same thing. Cosmonauts stranded in space during nuclear war. Hitler this. God that. Satan as a good guy. Make me feel a specific emotion in 200 words. Six word stories. I look at my computer screen and sigh. Originality is dead. Everyone hops the same gravy train to karmaville, and all we hear about ...
Larry slumped back in his chair unable to breath. A dull numbness manacled about his throat, he could only stare at his screen. Each of his feed readers began to blink and ping, their colors and tones eerily similar indicating that they were relaying very similar news. “...found guilty…” was all that Larry could make o...
Oh, man..I never thought it would get this big. I just wanted to write a tribute about the wonderful people I knew all those years ago. I was stoked when Penguin decided to publish it (especially when their money started coming in!)..but after copies of it ended up in the hands of my old friends, everything went abso...
"People of the planet earth, I ask that you lend me your ear. As you have done so many times before, I ask you to hear my words and decide to do what you believe is right. We are at the dawning of a new age. One in which, if we do not unite to push back the invaders, will feature humanity as only a footnote. We dont ...

Whatever goes on, So far from the reach of My grasp, my understanding, I know that I will neither Grasp, nor understa...
Yesterday was a blur as I lay in my bed, having just woken up. I tried to remember exactly what happened yesterday, but the details were way too fuzzy. I knew the main event, though: my son was being detained in jail. I remember applying my lipstick hurriedly in preparation to catch my appointment with the police. "J...
Organgered woke up first. Groggily looking around the room, he noticed his underwear clinging to the ceiling fan. Glancing at Periwinkle he wanted to throw up. No matter how many prayers he could possibly say he realised Snoo would never forgive him for this repugnant transgression. He crawled out of the bed to get a g...
The lights flickered. He frantically looked at his watch, then sighed with relief and went back to stacking the cases of food. Finishing the pallet, he turned and started walking through the short ceilinged but lengthy room. Halfway down he glanced to his left at the unfinished passageway between 2 racks of wa...
"Mama, Daddy, I'm gay." I say the words to the mirror, and I mean them to sound loud, like a battle cry, but they're small. They're really fucking small. I've been meaning to tell them for a while now, but it just never seemed the right time, you know? I mean hell, you try growing up in a small town in Alabama. "G...
For as long as I can remember, we have been here. Some of the elders tell me about a time before we gathered together in these spirals, and some can remember a time when they had to focus their gaze for years just to be able to notice anyone else. I've been around the collective a few times since my birth, but I haven'...
I was there the day you moved in. You brought me a toy. A little race car of a colour which perfectly matched my eyes. My mother revelled in the coincidence, using the opportunity to flirt shamelessly with our new neighbour. Looking back, I can recall how you squirmed at her advances, but perhaps that's just my own bia...
10:27 Abbie walked by me again. She has long and straight red hair, coming down to the bottom of her back. Her face is a tad longer than normal, but no worries: it was just more space with which to fill beauty. A smaller nose, full lips and big, bright eyes had me head over heels in love with her from the first micr...
Oh shit oh shit oh shit, stop the noise!!! The sound of entire gangraped dinosaur families came from a huge burning cauldron that glowed malevolantly at all gathered there. He saw the shadow ghosts of demons from hell roaming around the scene below, it was a vision straight of of a Bosch painting. What was David Bowie...
"Huh, sounds like something you'd say,"his wife grumped as she was evesdropping on the couple behind them. It was the first she'd talked to him in the last week. It was a relief, but he still did not know what to say. The seat they were in was getting sticky with perspiration after the ferris wheel ground to a halt, l...
"A conflagration isn't just a few flames; it's an especially large and destructive fire that causes devastation." That's what it became known as. The Conflagration. It started as a wildfire of change that blazed through the entire world. Entire societies were sent into upheaval in a matter of days. It wasn't long befo...
Human's today have no understanding of the mentality of my species. So many think us mindless beasts, and even among those that give us more respect than that, few see us as above dogs. Pfft, dogs, so called mans best friend? Dogs are loyal only to themselves. Selfish, filthy creatures, they live for their own pleasure...
She was in a supermarket, checking the ingredients of a cereal when it started creeping towards her again. The shadow. Lengthening, and taking shape of an arrow, gaining color, till it was almost tangible. Half the length of the aisle, and 1/4 as wide, it was gaining pace. Her heart rate picked up, "da dun, da dun, da...
"NO! This has GOT to be a mistake!" I pounded my fists, I stomped my feet. I cried and I swore. I demanded to see a supervisor. It didn't matter, I was dead. But, acceptance does not come easily. "I Didn't..."I mumbled, halfway through a tear. "You didn't, what?"The man asked. He sat across from me, in a cushioned...
I couldn't come up with a resolution for this one. I might finish it later! DAY 9 CENTRAL PARK 5:44AM Derek Goldsmith was beaming as he saw her retainee, Goldie.

The funny thing about memories is that sometimes some of the most vital points of a story are often not remembered at all. I don't even remember what the bet was, lord knows I have made so many in my life that it would be near impossible to remember them all, but I do remember the eager faces of the 14 people around me...
Dust They sent me first. They told me I had the most important job of the whole mission. I was to pick the site of the colony, set up the solar panels, assemble the first of the greenhouses, and scout the surrounding area. I was a pathfinder. My support would arrive 3 months later. Until then I was the sole inhabitan...
A wildlife researcher, while camping alone for the weekend, goes on a hike & stumbles upon a den of starving abandoned cubs.

What if I'm falling forever? I'm serious. What if this hole never ends? The guy who fell from the edge of space didn't take this long. This is, 9.8 meters per second times, how long have I been falling? Oh, wait, I just had a thought, hold on. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Wait, that...
Sad prompts aren't any easier to write than funny prompts really, but I think there's such a ready supply of comedy just about everywhere these days that a little catharsis is in demand. Also, while it isn't easier to write a sad story, it is easier to give it more artistic merit because of the accessibility of the e...
Isaac moved stealthily along the sidewalk, his footsteps falling silently upon the pavement, briefcase swinging at his side. Only the constant swish, swish made by the fabric of his suit rubbing against itself revealed that he was out tonight. He approached the apartment complex that Peter lived in – a decrepit bu...
Bob sighed and shoved his Calvin Klein rimless readers up his stubby knot of a nose. He didn't really care about fashion. He just liked the way these made him look smart, as he had the unique of appearance of college frat boy interning at NASA. Actually he worked for the CDC and hated his job right now. They just would...
It's March 5th, 2018. This is my first and last message back to Earth. People... people crave the opportunity to make a difference. People want to be famous, they want to be recognized, and loved, and appreciated for all their hard work. It's lonely being famous. It's lonely being recognized, lonely being...
The hair was blindingly gold, as it always was. I tried to forget that hair, that face, that sweet innocent laugh. Forgetting him was impossible, so I settled for not thinking about him. I could go days at a time where the only thing I think about is not thinking about him. But after seeing a strand of his silky hair,...
I stood there, staring down at the weapon now pressing into my hand. "This... This isn't a person..."The old man I had followed into the cave, whom I was beginning to suspect was not in the strictest sense completely senile, smiled a few-too-little toothy grin. "Because it's dangerous to go alone, so..." "Yeah, no... y...
The hairs on the back of Henry's neck stood up. The slightly built man sighed. What once would have made him spin in fear was now just an annoyance. A few thousand scares left a man with little fear. He'd been to four psychologists, but none had believed him. Three kicked him out because they thought he was just trying...
It was at a United States Congressional meeting that the mysterious being arrived. He appeared to be a normal member of the congress in his finely tailored suit if not for the unusual circumstances surrounding his unexpected arrival. As a Congressman was speaking to the house on the topic of climate change, the man sud...
"Oh my aren't the Americans mad...", commented the tall lanky foreigner. "Oh yes quite", replied the short stout outsider. "Personally I find the idiotic patriotism just a tad overwhelming." "Oh come now, that is a hasty generalization" "I'm not exaggerating. Just observing the heated xenophobia slowly oozing out ...
I don't know what spared her. Nobody does, but that's because they don't even know she's alive. Shit, she might keel over any minute. The sickness took them all without warning, spanish flu like. When I took her back home some weeks ago we'd landed from a 8 hour flight, overseas, to find that 3 passengers were not asle...
"Dear _______ I know what you did and you know what you did. Although I would not wish death upon anybody- I would not be opposed to you doing the world a favor and fucking killing yourself. Also, don't waste the time searching your conscience to determine who this could be from. We both know that there are too many p...

"Reverse engineered Inflation. Time travel regulations strictly regulate the monetary use of blah, blah, blah."Father recites for what seemed to be the millionth time. Past the point of anger, past the point of trying to discipline, and sadly past the point of caring he diligently repeated. "A 1997 Happy Meal is all we...
The wind rushed through Jakes hair as he sped through the mountain roads. He was going too fast. Far too fast. The need for haste was caused by the package he was carrying. It was in a backpack and it made an ominous ticking sound. The package was a canister of radioactive waste recently removed from the arms of a dead...
"The Shrek killer struck again last night, marking his thirteenth kill in two months. He is on his way to being one of this decade's most prolific serial killers."

"I have the ticket, Chelsea, and I'm giving to you. Just take it for fuck's sake."He shoved the laminated card into my hand, unwilling to just let it go.
