That Was Fun

June 3

Saturday was the last day for entries in the 2024 Thursday Doors Writing Challenge (with the possible exception of one entry, delayed by injury, which may still appear. Three people offered a creative entry on Saturday, bringing the total number of creative entries to 54.

Of the 54 entries, we have:

29 Poems
22 Short stories
1 Bit of non-fiction
1 Piece described as Prosetry
1 Collection of works of fabric art

As with the Writing Challenges from 2021, 2022 and 2023, this year's challenge will remain available for your reading pleasure as long as No Facilities is a blog.

I want to thank everyone—the people who who gave us the images for inspiration, the creative people who spun stories, poems and works of art around those images and you—the people following the participants as they shared their doors and creative talents.
