RESTACK the stories you read in Substack Notes to expand the discoverability of all the participants in this prompt party! (One of my fav ways to do this is by highlighting a favorite sentence and restacking with that. More about restacking here.)
The rules:
You must have a Substack page
Your fiction MUST be written to the prompt in the previous post.
Your fiction must not exceed 1,000 words.
We will only read Substack or view-only Google Doc links, in other words…
This thread is for LINKS ONLY*

*Note: Please use this thread for links and likes only—share your comments with the writers on their Substack page OR in your Note when you restack them!

This one is set in Istanbul... er, I mean Constantinople... make that Byzantium
