Hey everyone!

Another edition of the recap is here!

Do me favor, if you have a writer friend, or someone with writing aspirations. Share Microdosing with them. So we can grow as a community and inspire new writers together!

Today on Microdosing our prompt is BUTTON!

Write a story in 50 words!

Don’t forget to tag me if you follow along with the challenge!

"Rock, paper, scissors!" 

Two rocks.

"Damnit!" two men in suits said simultaneously

"Rock, paper, scissors!

Two rocks again.

"Rock, paper, scissors!"

Rock - paper

"Shit... you win," said the skinier one.

The other clapped in joy and smashed the button, sending the world into a nuclear winter.

The Contributions

Let’s look at the amazing micro stories from the fiction pushers of the last week!

If you are not included, don’t get discouraged. It’s just impossible for me to see and include all of you :)

If you want me to see your take for sure, drop it in our weekly chat! It opens every Thursday and I go through all contributions shared there!

A couple of new faces happened to join in on Microdosing during the last week. So let’s start with them!

Newcomers

Jimmy Doom

has been doing daily short stories for a long time here on Substack. And he took some time of his day to join us on the prompt Statue!

Madeline Tyler

joined us with an absolutely amazing statue story!

MaKenna Grace

tried micro-fiction for the first time ever, and I think she did a great job! Show her some love!

Anca

joined us on the Dice prompt, with a contribution that made me happy. Because I initially wanted to write something similar.

Live Laugh Lovecraft

joined us for the first time on the dice prompt as well. (she is also new to Substack with banger posts, you should check her out)

Regular Pushers and Addicts

It wouldn’t be a recap without

Ika Wright

and

Samantha Zeller

and coincidently they both contributed on the statue prompt with the inspiration from Weeping Angels!

Kait Zeller

delivered a story that is right up my alley and perfectly encapsulates the fear that inspired this prompt in the first place.

Cameron Arksey

always coming at the prompt from a different angle and I love how he “switched” the theme around here.

Chris J. Franklin

quickly became one of the Microdosing regulars, his takes always fun and cool 😎

Jack Bush

gave us a vivid portrayel of the courtroom for the prompt ROOM.

Returning Faces

Hanna Delaney

returns to Microdosing after taking on the Gibberish writing challenge! And knocking it out of the park with her contribution

Words in Bloom

Joined us again and as always took my breath away

Joseph Wiess

coming in with the tower prompt contribution.

Feasts and Fables

Mr. Fables always does an amazing job and the tower prompt was no different.

That’s a wrap. Thank you for being here with me, and thank you for writing. :)

Have a great rest of the weekend and see you next week!
