#271: Familiar Strangers with Barnes & Noble Press
This week’s contest, "Familiar Strangers," is hosted by our friends over at Barnes & Noble Press (B&N Press). In addition to receiving the usual Prompts top prize of $250, the winner of this takeover will also be given a special bonus prize from B&N Press: a NOOK Glowlight 4 e-reader! We'll let them take it from here...
In a world where connections are often made with a scroll or a swipe, our contest’s theme invites storytellers to explore the ways our lives intersect with other lives that seem both familiar and unfamiliar.
Our takeover explores the nuances of identity, perception, and the surprising nature of our encounters, whether through digital interactions or in the real world. From the tension of mistaken identities to the warmth of rediscovered relationships, the possibilities for storytelling are rich and diverse.
This week, let your stories merge recognition and mystery, leading your characters on journeys of discovery, surprise, and revelation. Good luck!
Don’t forget to use the hashtag #ReedsyConnection to share your stories (and potentially be featured on our social accounts)!
