There is a National Writers Competition for Short Stories and Poetry being held in my country.
I wanted to participate in Short Story writing.
The length shud b such that it can be read in 20 minutes.
Now I know that since this is a NATIOANAL level competition… people will write in all languages and on every imaginable topic. (u can choose any topic no restrictions)
And there will be OUSTANDING submissions. Only 3 people will be winners.
The thing is…..I could google ‘What are good topics for short story?’
But I wont because…..I just REALLY REALLY REAAAALLLLY want the topic of short story to be very unique. Like i saw this reel a few days ago in which actor Adrian Brody asks his class to write an essay on the topic –What would be your closest relative’s eulogy on your funeral?
It made me think wow okay thats so wierdly cool and different topic.
So yeah thats why i want u guys to help me out and give me a topic that like…..NO ONE WILL EVER COME UP WITH. It shud be very really different.
Any other suggestion about what i shud keep in mind while writing the short story–are most welcome.
im writing in english.
Thank you lovelyyyyyssss!

Or you could come up with your own entry to a competition rather than just taking something from Google or reddit?
If no one will ever come up with it, wouldn’t it be hard for anyone here to come up with?
