A new prompt + final days to submit to our July contest
Use this prompt as an entry point into our July contest theme: Holding the Paradox.
📝 WEEKLY PROMPT
Write about an ending that created the conditions for something unexpected to begin.
Endings rarely feel like beginnings while we're living through them. More often, they arrive as loss, uncertainty, or the closing of a door we weren't ready to see shut. But with time, many endings reveal themselves as thresholds.
This week, write in the genre of your choosing about an ending that, in ways you couldn't have predicted, made room for something new to enter your life.
This weekly companion prompt is free and open to everyone. No submission required.
