Unquestionably, the creative world is filled with rejection, especially for writers. In order to hone your craft, you need accountability and external motivation. 100 Word Wednesday is our response to keep writers motivated — Specifically, a way to create, connect, and especially get your writing out there.

We aim to publish more microfiction and unite people in the writing community. Also, every published entry is considered for a Best of The Net nomination.

In fact, we noticed fewer journals offering this micro-niche. Therefore, we seized this opportunity to engage more writers. Above all, we believe all writers, whether emerging or established (or somewhere in between), have something to contribute. Overall, writers can benefit from writing prompts to help hone their craft, and feedback is essential.
