A bi-weekly writing challenge for writers who want to flex their creative muscles without the pressure of perfection.

200 words (or less). Any genre. Any style. No rules except one: just write.

How It Works

Every two weeks, I post a new writing prompt on Instagram and here on the website. Your job? Write a 200-word story (or less) based on that prompt.

There are no wrong answers. No judgment. Just creativity.

Participate By:

• Commenting your story on the Instagram post

• Posting to your own feed/story and tagging @ScriptedSilhouettes

• Sharing your response here in the comments (if enabled)

The best responses will be featured in the next prompt post and showcased here on the website!

Why 200 Words?

Because:

• Short enough to finish in one sitting

• Long enough to tell a real story

• Removes the pressure of "writing a novel"

• Forces you to be intentional with every word

• Perfect for busy people who want to write but don't have hours

200 words is enough to make someone FEEL something. That's all that matters.
