It’s time to close out the third week of our September writing challenge. If you haven’t caught on, this month’s theme is ‘ruination’.

Bonus challenge: Use all five of the long prompts, one each for different stories. Can you connect all five stories?

• The once great city lay in smoking ruins.
• His own morals decayed in the presence of such wealth.
• “Decay and rot are the only things left by that magic.”
• “The old house fell to ruin with no one living in it.”
• “Salt water corrodes magic with enough time.”

Happy writing!
