Evil Octopus

Apr 11, 2020 | News

I have just finished writing my second silly story from a prompt given to me by my nephew. This one was from my 8 year old nephew.

The prompt he gave me was An Evil Octopus in Underwater Isolation.

When he gave me the prompt, he also started giving me tips on how to write the story… I had suggested that he should write the story too!

After mulling it over for a few days, an idea popped into my head earlier today and I wrote it down this afternoon. This is inspired by the writing prompt as well as some of the complaints I’ve been reading on social media.

I hope my nephew enjoys it, then it’s the turn of my 6 year old nephew to give me a prompt. I can’t wait to see what he comes up with.
