"Life is Unfair“
CLOSED

Our Current Contest prompt is:
"Cheating"
Cheating – Sometimes, only the sneaky ones survive!
Prompt submitted by VIP Member: Deborah Goulding
Please do not use the prompt as the title of your story!
Whether it’s a high-stakes betrayal in a romance, a forbidden shortcut in a dystopian game, or the quiet moral decay of a white-collar crime, we want to see how your characters break the rules.
Write a story centered on the theme of “Cheating.”
Don’t just show the act—show the consequences, the justification, and the moment the truth unravels. From academic scandals to broken vows and rigged systems, push the boundaries of integrity and see what happens when the “right way” isn’t enough.
The prompt does not have to be quoted directly, but your story should refer to the prompt in some way, directly or indirectly.
