When I saw this pic in the gallery preview, I thought it was a created image (eg, digital painting) of some sort of cthonic tower. Now that I see it in full view, it looks like it's a carefully composed photograph of the remains of a tree. I'm not sure which version I like better.

Well I'm excited. I've definitely been this excited before, but just when I was thinking about soliciting prompts to get some writing practice what shows up in my inbox? A contest with stupendous timing.

I'm not making any progress on anything fitting the prompt, but I do have a murder mystery and a ghost running around my head trying to fit together. If I get that written before finals I'll call it a win.

Freebie if anyone still needs a plot: Time travel.
