Happy Friday! Here’s your weekend writing challenge:

Below you’ll find 50 micro challenges. All of these are 100 words or less and add up to 3,125 words if you complete all of them.

Your challenge is to see how many you can get through between now and Sunday evening.

You can use these micro challenges for any form of writing: shorts stories and flash fiction, novellas, novels, or even bounce around in projects as much as you please. Although some of them do play off each other, you don’t have to complete them in any specific order.
