This is a series of short stories I wrote for The Fabulous Spec-Fic Smack Down on Wattpad, which required me to write flash fiction, short stories, drabbles, and poetry inspired by prompts that qualified as Speculative Fiction. Speculative Fiction is a genre that’s basically a mash-up of whatever you want it to be, commonly Sci Fi, Fantasy, Horror, but by definition, anything goes. Alternate timelines and universes are pretty common in Spec Fic, too. Flash fiction is a story shorter than typical Short Stories, and drabbles are exactly 100 words in length.

This was a writing experiment for me, because:
- I had never written Speculative Fiction.
- Or flash fiction.
- Or drabbles.
- Or from an image prompt.

Somehow, I survived the eliminations until round four, part one. I decided to keep following the contest on my own, so as long as it's running, I'll keep adding chapters within the deadline based on the prompts provided. But I won't stop when the contest ends. This has been such a fun project, so I've decided to pull prompts from various sources and keep it going as long as I can.

Note: Word count varies with the application used. All the word counts here come from Google Docs.
