Welcome to Write the Story!
February’s schoolroom prompt gave us amazing stories about school days. March 2024‘s prompt takes us into the snowy bamboo woods.
Thanks to all who submitted stories in February and to all of you who took the time to read their work!
Now for March 2024!
Don’t Forget: The word limit is now 5000 words. Also, we will no longer do minor editing on these stories.
WU! created this project with two goals: providing a writing exercise and promoting our author sites to increase reader traffic. We ask that you please include a link to the Writers Unite! blog when you post your story elsewhere. By doing so, you are also helping promote your fellow members and Writers Unite! We encourage all of you to share each other’s stories to help all of us grow. Thanks!

- The story must have a title and author name and must include the link to the site you wish to promote.
- Send the story and link to the site via Facebook Messenger to Deborah Ratliff or email to writersunite16@gmail.com. Put “Write the Story” in the first line of the message.
