A Haunting Story...come join the fun!

Haunting - your invitation to write a 400-word story or poem this Friday 28.

Romantic Friday Writers, a weekly on-going blogfest run by L'Aussie and Francine Howarth, has an open challenge to everyone to write a 400-word story or poem on the theme Haunting for Friday 28 October. Well, er, that might just have something to do with Halloween?


What haunts you? Do you have a story or poem in the paranormal genre you could share, do ghosts or zombies inhabit your universe? Or do you have a character who is just plain haunted by what has happened in the past? Release your creative juices and pen a tasty banquet for the feast on Friday. Just remember to have an element of romance present in some form...

How do you enter your story?

  • Click here to go to the Romantic Friday Writers' website
  • Submit your direct story link to the linky (linky is now up here!)
  • Tweet using #RFWer to tell the twitterverse you've posted (optional) or post on facebook etc...
  • Find some time over the Halloween weekend to read other stories. What better way to spend the weekend while you suck on trick or treat candies?
  • If you're a member, your story is automatically up for Featured Writer, Runner Up or an Encouragement Award. If you're not a member, you're welcome to join - it's free! Remember, you don't have to be a member to post this week or any week!
Please join us! We'll have fun!

Happy Writing!

Re-post by request from Denise (L'Aussie). It's fun and rewarding and will challenge your writing skills. Give it a try. This week, blood, gore and creepy critters are on the venue.

I'm not scared of much. Sometimes I wish I were, just to experience the thrill of being spooked.

I was spooked terribly once as a kid. Home alone with my little sister, Mom, Dad, and my two older siblings were out. We heard a mighty crash above our heads coming from our parents bedroom. Line a giant armoire falling over.

We ran out of the house. After a while we came back in and went up to their bedroom. Nothing was amiss. To this day we cannot explain that huge thundering boom. A poltergeist maybe?
