Hi @mimidoo1. It appears you may need some instruction on our community and short story writing. In The Ink Well, we only accept short stories. These can be "creative nonfiction" short stories or they can be fictional short stories. "Fiction" means the story is made up from your imagination, like "once upon a time" stories you may have read as a child.
Each week we post one fiction short story prompt and one creative nonfiction short story prompt. The "diary" prompt is for a fictional short story. So this should be a story made up from your imagination.
Please see the following resources for more information.
- You can find some great articles on fiction story writing in our [catalog of fiction writing tips] (https://peakd.com/hive-170798/@theinkwell/catalog-of-fiction-writing-tips-from-the-ink-well).
- You can find information about what we are looking for in creative nonfiction stories in [this post] (https://peakd.com/hive-170798/@theinkwell/creative-nonfiction-what-it-is-and-tips-for-success).
Please also be sure to read our community rules at the top of The Ink Well community home page. Thank you.
