Story Submissions

1. Post your story, poem, etc. on your own Tumblr.
2. Each prompt has a unique tag in capital letters. Type that word into the Title bar. That way, I know which prompt to post your story on.
3. Type the title of your story. Make the title into a link to where the story is posted on your Tumblr.
4. Type “by” and your name. Your byline can be your Tumblr username, your real name, your pen name… whatever you prefer!
5. Click Submit!

Still having trouble? Confused? Here’s what a submission should look like.

Prompt Idea Submissions

1. Write “Prompt idea by yourtumblrusername:”. If you want, you can make your username a link to your blog.
2. On a new line, write your prompt idea.
3. Click Submit!
4. Since only 2 prompts are posted a day, it can sometimes take weeks before your prompt idea gets to the top of the queue. To check if it’s published, type yeahwriters.tumblr.com/tagged/yourtumblrusername into your address bar.
