~ The September 25th 2023 Challenge ~

SHORT and SWEET (or STEAMY) DRABBLES

100-Word Stories

In Celebration of the 36th Anniversary
of Beauty and the Beast

To celebrate the anniversary of the 1987 premiere, CABB – New Chambers issued a challenge: Write a drabble – a mini-story consisting of exactly 100 words – with the theme “surprising discoveries that yield unexpected results”. We had hoped to receive 36 submissions for our 36th year together, but our outstanding fanfic authors left that goal in the dust! And so, you’ll enjoy …

64 ‘short short’ stories by 17 different writers!

Our Anniversary Challenge Authors:

Carole W, Crowmama, Jo Fredericks, JoAnn Baca, JRo, Katie A,

Lara Hoyle, Linda S Barth, Lindariel, Nelly, Paula, PearlAnn SnowStar,

Rebecca Gibson, Tasha Lawson, Tee Hoagland, Tunnel Writer, and Vincent C. Peters

A NOTE ABOUT COMMENTS:

Because we have so many stories from so many writers, our standard comment form is inadequate. For this Challenge, if you would like to comment on the drabbles, please send your messages to Linda SB at cabbchallenges@gmail.com and she will forward your comments to the individual authors. Feedback is always encouraging and helps inspire additional new stories, plus we have submissions by several first-time contributors, so please don’t hesitate to drop a note or ten!

Our next official Challenge will be announced in early December and the stories will be posted during Winterfest Week 2024. However, we might come up with a mini Challenge before that, so please watch for updates on CABB – New Chambers, BBTV, and the BatB Facebook pages. We hope you’ll be inspired to write.

Until then …
