Hello fellow muse tamers!

It's again time for the monthly challenge. Due to communication error between us mods, it's a few days late but you get a few extra days to get your entries in.

Again trying something different. Feel free to tell me your thoughts about doing the prompts this way. Also if you have any other ideas about handling the monthly prompts, feel free to share.

Anyway, the prompt is the following

Write a 1000+ word story. This should be a complete story, rather than a part of a larger piece, however, it can be original or fan fiction. Since it's Summer I thought it would be good to have you place your story in darkness. Otherwise you have free reign.


Entries will need to be received by midnight 6th August at GMT -12. We'll issue a closed post as we do with the weekly prompts.

When you post your entry, please tag it for the challenge.

You do not have to be a regularly contributing member of the community to participate. This challenge is optional and open to everyone.

You are allowed to use the monthly challenge in conjunction with any of the weekly prompts this month as long as you follow all the requirements for both. So, for this month, you would:
- Include the weekly prompt in your story
- It would be a stand-alone, a story of 1000 words or more placed in darkness
- It would be posted by the earlier of the two deadlines (midnight Saturday, or midnight on the 6th).
