Your writing can change and color our world! Write a short story between 1,000 – 1,500 words about a character that takes an action that changes someone else’s day for the better. The action can be as small or grand as you’d like — even small acts can make a big difference!

Your story must have a catchy title, a protagonist that takes an action to make a change, and a beginning, middle, and end.
