Two Sentence Horror Story Library Contest. Do you dare to scare?
The library is hosting its annual Two Sentence Horror Story Contest. The challenge: you must tell a complete, scary story using only two sentences. Rules: No run on sentences can be used to cram more into the story. You may not steal someone else’s work from online or use any AI generators. (Mrs. Crothers knows how to check). Spelling will be looked at - so please do your best and double check your spelling before submitting. Submit your stories in the Google Form located on the MMS Library website. All stories are due by Wednesday, October 28th.
