November 2023 The Great Substack Prompt Celebration
Your Inspiration Invitation
Earlier this year, Heather Huffman and Nicole Rivera joined the Fictionistas crew to help build community around our fiction creations on Substack. We call this adventure The Great Substack Prompt Celebration (read a detailed explanation here).
Each month we share writing prompts, have a live Zoom call where we write together, and then wrap up the month by asking all participants to share their stories and read submissions from their fellow Fictionistas. We know, for sure, that fiction writing is happening, now, after our summer vacation hiatus, we are interested in upping our community engagement game.
Let’s Talk Writing Challenges!
To be online and in writing community during the month of November, it is near impossible to not get swept up in some conversations about NaNoWriMo (National Writing Month). Are you joining in this event this year? Are there other online writing challenges that inspire you? In short, let us know:
How do you feel about online writing challenges?
If you have a favorite online writing challenge, let us know where it is and how we can find it!

You officially have one week to warm up before this month’s fun begins. Remember, Fictionistas who join the Writing Prompt Party will be the first to get this month’s prompt and the first to get some real-time reactions to their first drafts!
Your Official Invitation to Party
The November Writing Prompt Party will be on November 9, 2023 at 6PM Eastern. We would love to see you there (but keep in mind, if you can’t make it, we will be posting the prompt to Fictionistas after the meeting)!
Nicole Rivera is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Yay! I loved doing the October prompt. I can’t attend the Zoom as in the UK it’ll be 1am or something daft. I’ll look out for the follow up post though. ✌️
Looking forward to this!
