Ficlets

Twisted History Challenge

So this is my 101st ficlet, and i figure its time I post a challenge. Now, it took me a while to pick one…but here’s my challenge:

Write me a story involving someone/some event from history(or it could be a well known myth if you want).

Sounds easy, but here’s the twist-I want you to change something big that happened in that event/in their life...for example, if we hadn’t won the Revolutionary War…would we have ever won our freedom? How would life be now?

Basically, im looking for creativity in choosing characters/events, etc. I’m also looking for the unexpected-characters or plot-wise.

Hopefully, some people will enter. And if they do, then the judging will occur on July 7th(no promises about results being out on that specific day but within a day or 2).

So get writing!!
