The Weekly Embers Call

 


🔥 The Weekly Embers Call: Turning Sunday Into a Spark Lit Writing Ritual

What if every Sunday felt less like a “drop off your draft” day and more like a forge where ideas are hammered, shaped, and set ablaze?

Welcome to The Weekly Embers Call – a curated, constraint driven challenge that gives independent writers a clear prompt, a friendly deadline, and a community wide “forge” where every ember counts.
Think of Sunday as the pre heat stage of your writing week. By the time Monday rolls around, you already have a piece you can polish, expand, or riff on.

We care about the fire you bring, not the résumé you have.

5️⃣ Ready to Answer the Call?
Your first Weekly Embers Call lands this Sunday.
Prompt Title: The Lost Token
The Spark: Write a 100 word flash fire about a character who discovers an object they thought they’d lost forever—only the object holds a secret that changes everything.
Rules: 100 words exactly, submit by Tuesday midnight, email to mylaughingdragon+embers@gmail.com.
Whether you’re a seasoned novelist, a short story addict, or someone who’s only just dusted off a notebook, this is your invitation to step into the forge.

Every ember counts. Let’s turn them into a blaze together.

📣 Join the Conversation
Drop your completed piece in the comments below (or email it).
Tag your tweet with #WeeklyEmbers so the community can retweet your spark.
Suggest a future prompt—the forge is as much yours as it is mine.

See you on the fire line!

— Jasmine Kythera Roatron, Founder of The Weekly Embers Call
P.S. Keep an eye out for Friday’s Feature roundup, where I’ll spotlight three of this week’s brightest sparks. Happy forging!
