Let the storytelling commence! As we kick off Week 1 of our Pride Month Micro Story Contest, it's time to unleash your creativity and craft a story that's tiny in word count but powerful in heart.

🌈 Week 1 Prompt (June 9–15)

🪄 "I stepped out, and the world changed color."

It can be literal, metaphorical, magical, or emotional. Whether it's about stepping out of a closet, a memory, a moment of fear, or into a brand-new identity — this line invites stories of transformation, liberation, discovery, and pride.

Let the theme of Pride, identity, queerness, love, fear, and celebration guide you.

📝 Word Count: 500–1500 words
🎯 Deadline: Submit by 11:59 PM (IST) on June 15
