Winter has always been known as a love-hate season, for various reasons. The season depicts harshness, calmness, silence, festive season, the season of lights and love, mourning, death, ending and detachment. Most of the trees go barren during this season because they can't bear the harsh whiplash of the chilly wind. References to winter in literature may refer to death, old age, pain, loneliness, despair or an end. The season provides the setting for painful messages, as well as messages of renewal, rebirth, and hope. Write a short story, no less than 1200 words, inspired by Winter of your own interpretation, to be placed within a collection titled Cold Embraces.
If you would be interested in writing a short story to be included within the collection of short stories from various authors, all under one central theme (Winter), please email me or contact me via Facebook or Wattpad for further details. I believe it's going to be a really fun and uplifting experience for my fellow authors!
During the summer we had a very similar project done, Dog Days! This anthology can be found on Wattpad, https://my.w.tt/mLpQFhBZfbb, and on Ao3, https://archiveofourown.org/works/26516779/chapters/64629112.
