A short story project for Lent

Last year during Lent I completed a self-reflective exercise, looking at my character flaws, and also considering my thoughts around work fulfillment. I'm not planning to do that again this year. I hope I haven't developed more flaws...and I'm not sure how well I've managed to over come the ones I identified last year.

Instead, I was thinking about doing a short story project. I'd aim for two short posts a week (between 250-500 words), starting this week, and going until Easter (April 20th--yeah, it's really late this year).

The slight hitch in my current plan is I don't have a story idea yet. No characters, no plot, nothing. So, I'd love suggestions! I'm not looking to make this religious or a self-discovery journey, it's meant only to exercise my writing skills. I'm willing to go for comedy, tragedy, romance, speculative, young adult, or older adult, whatever!

If you have a suggestion, feel free to comment here or on Facebook, or even Twitter, if that's how you'd prefer to correspond.

Then I'll see what I can come up with.

Ciao,

Andrea
