The Multigenre Mashup SmackDown is here!
A prompt-based writing challenge for all writers of flash fiction and short stories.
The chance to hone your skills writing alongside some of Wattpad's best.
A friendly fight, a twisted challenge, a conte...
For those who never joined a smack down and wonder how this works:
🔨 A SmackDown is a flash fiction contest over several rounds
🔨 Each round, the stories are judged by an anonymous judging team
🔨 Each round, part of the writers will be eliminated from the contest
🔨 Writing is prompt based — participants get assigned one or several prompts each round that must be integrated into their short story
🔨 The last remaining writer will be declared the winner, will earn the all important bragging rights, a weird sticker for their cover, and the illustrious title of SmackDown Champion.
⚒
