In the Podcast “You’re Trying Too Hard” Tim and LeeAnna dissected the fine art of self-sabotage—because nothing says 'success' like trying too hard and ruining everything.
Tim has an all-new challenge for you writers out there. As ever: Keep it under 600 words.
A story about someone trying way too hard to achieve something and then failing. Say trying to make a cake to delight and impress a friend and then kind of falling flat on their face.
Or this character wants something so badly, like winning some kind of unimportant challenge, that on balance they come out the loser from it.
Write whatever inspires you—just make sure it’s under 600 words. Pop it over to us through the submissions page. Who knows, maybe we'll even feature it on the podcast. Extra credit if you can include a turkey hat somewhere in there.
