Prompted, Issue 03: Reedsy's short story review (Prompted Magazine)

By Reedsy Ltd and Various

Could you write, edit, and submit a prize-winning short story in 168 hours? Pick up this issue of PROMPTED and discover what's possible when writers face a deadline armed only with their talent, craft... and a writing prompt. Write a story about two characters who like each other but don't get a happily-ever-after. Write about a character who breaks free from a tradition to create a new one. Write a story about someone trying to raise the dead. Each story is inspired by a one-sentence prompt and written in a single week--demonstrating the power of inspiration and the places our imagination can take us with the slightest nudge. Featuring winning works from the world's most popular weekly short story contest and guest edited by Martha Sprackland (founding editor of independent publishing house Offord Road Books and of the multilingual arts zine La Errante ), PROMPTED is a new literary magazine from Reedsy. In this issue: Pari Ghodsi's LILIES * Paul Crehan's WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE THE MUSIC OF AN OCTOPUS? * Wendy Markel's LAST OF THE BRIGHT YOUNG THINGS * Old Adder's DO FLAMETHROWERS BELONG IN THE LIBRARY? * Ian E.
