2022-Micro-05 - "Smile"
The ubiquitous “happy face” is a symbol of something a great deal more profound: the Smile. A smile can transform a grey day into sunshine. A smile can change a person’s inner life, their outlook, their outcome. A smile can be a weapon, good medicine, or a place of safety in a weary world.
We look forward to your new stories of 100 words or less inspired by our “Smile” prompt. You might enjoy reading some of our previous shortlisted stories that mentioned a smile. We hope these will inspire you while you’re coming up with ideas for your own new story.
