Hi there lovely reader,

I wrote the Tale of Sneezing Snow because this Christmas Microbyte Challenge dropped into my inbox. I have no idea how, but I enjoyed the challenge and was so pleased with the result.  I am currently attempting to write a book-length story called 'Pod Life'. I challenged myself to write over 20 chapters, it should be my longest story yet with twists and turns, but the truth is I'm stuck in the middle. Really stuck. So when I later found out that this microbyte challenge is part of a bigger challenge, I figured it is probably best to just keep writing until my book flows again.  I used the first challenge for a bit of character development, you can catch a glimpse of my main two characters, Danny and Sarah.  Anyway, I plan to update my challenges daily. So if you are a fan of microbyte challenges, do tag along, let me know what you think.

The following chapters are my challenge attempts:

Challenge 1 - write exactly 100 words and include at least 3 words from a list.

Challenge 2 - write a 6-word mystery, horror or fantasy. 6 words! Agh!

Challenge 3 - 300-word story on the colour blue.

Challenge 4 is something about a tweet on social media, I might come back to that, but skipping for now.

Challenge 5 - 50 words about a bouncing ball.

Challenge 6 - 50 - 99 words on nanobots. Warning, not for the faint-hearted, you have been warned!
