So you've finished your book or collated your collection of poems. It's almost ready to print. Just one more thing is required: that mini-biography that sits somewhere before the title page. How would yours read? I'll go first.

You (or your protagonist) receive a birthday card/message from someone you (or your protagonist) have no recollection of having met. Who is it from and why did they send it? Anything goes: horror, comedy, fantasy, etc.

...be a werewolf or a vampire? Why? What are the pro's and con's of your choice? What would be the highlight/lowlight of your life? Or is there another supernatural creature you would rather be?

...be a dog for a day or a cat for a day? Why? What are the pro's and con's of your choice? What would be the highlight of your day? If you could choose your own name, what would it be?

A challenge from my fiance: how does Santa make himself covid safe this year? (For our younger readers, I have set this as a piece of 'fiction' purely because we don't know what precautions the real Santa has already put in place, though I'm sure he has and that he, the elves and the reindeer will be fine.)

Take the scariest location you have ever seen or read about. Introduce the funniest character(s) you have ever encountered. How does it play out? (While there is no 'official' prize, all entrants will win the joy of writing.)
