Your KYD "Kill Your Darlings" Weekly Prompt
Let's go dark this week. This could work well for our fantasy writers.
Nightshade
I'm not talking about the edible varieties of nightshade, like tomatoes and potatoes. I'm talking about deadly nightshade, as in poisonous.
I've seen this plant come up in a number of fantasy stories. Be sure to give it a unique twist!
All the beast!

Your KYD "Kill Your Darlings" Weekly Prompt
Here's an interesting situation that could make for a unique KYD twist!
Doctor becomes the patient.
This would be especially fun with a doctor that had a god complex and now the tables have turned and circumstances place him under the medical care of another doctor with a god complex. I'd title this story, "A Taste of His Own Medicine." That title is so good I've got to believe someone else has thought of it. But here's the good news: You can't copyright titles! Or else I would right now! Go for it!
Have fun! And don't wait until the last day of the quarter or even the contest year to write your WotF story. Who could ever win doing that?
Okay, a few of us have, but it's not ideal. Think your stories through, get them under development, or you run the great danger of missing the deadline. March 31st might come in like a lamb, but it goes out like a lion. Don't get caught in its fearsome jaws!
Oh, and if you're in the Utah area, I'm teaching masterclasses again at LTUE: the Life, The Universe, and Everything Seminar. I'll be teaching a morning and an afternoon masterclass based on these Super Secrets of Writing on Wednesday, February 11th, 2026. This convention is filled with serious SFF readers and fans. John Goodwin will be there, and so will Emily--in fact, she will be their Toastmaster! We'll all be on the Writers of the Future panel, ready to give you our tips on how to win the Contest! (My advice? Write fresh, original stories!) Come join the fun in Provo, Utah that weekend! It's a beautiful seminar.
All the beast!
