Tell Me a Story

I'm starting to feel like every story I see, whether it's on the movies or in books, poetry or even in real life are repetitive and frankly, it's becoming boring.

I want a third person narrative story that proves to me that there is a large amount of storylines I've never heard before.

You can tell me stories of werewolves, or talking plants, or knights, or pregnant teenagers, suicidal boys, crazy kids, solemn adults...Anything that you want, and can, think of.

So, in short:
-Third Person Narrative
-Original
-Write on anything!


Best of luck.

    So, just to clarify... can be prose? Doesn't have to be a poem, per se?

      Can be prose, poetry, anything as long as it tells a story. You're gunna use your bloody knight narration, aren't you?
