Get a Writing Prompt

For a decade, Fifteen Minutes of Fiction had a weekly writing prompt. Some of these are specific to certain times of year, or specific holidays. They are presented here in no particular order; click the "Get Another" link to see another randomly selected prompt.

M'aidez

Today is May 1st, a day that is often referred to as "May Day" - a day of dancing, feasting, and singing. Interestingly, the French word "M'aidez" (which is pronounced the same as "May Day") has become the international distress signal.

Write a short story in which a "May Day" celebration turns into a "M'aidez."
