Fantasy Short Story Needed - 05/07/2026 15:51 EDT

I’d like an original fantasy short story that sweeps readers into a vivid new world, complete with memorable characters, a clear central conflict, and a satisfying resolution. The tone can range from whimsical to epic as long as it feels fresh and immersive.

Here’s what I have in mind:
• Format: prose short story, not a poem or script
• Length: flexible—long enough to fully develop plot and atmosphere without overstaying its welcome (we can confirm the word count together before you start)
• Audience: adult and young-adult fantasy fans who appreciate strong storytelling over heavy exposition
• Originality: no AI-generated or recycled content; I need full rights upon completion

If you’re comfortable building fantasy settings, crafting believable dialogue, and moving a plot briskly while leaving room for wonder, you’ll be a great fit. Please share a brief paragraph or two of previous fantasy work, or a short pitch for the concept you’d like to write, so I can gauge voice and style.

Once we agree on the premise and length, I’ll outline any key beats or themes I’d love to see woven in, but overall you’ll have creative freedom to let the story breathe. I’m excited to read what you come up with!
