Short story prompts

osprey_archerEarlier this month I wrote a short story about mermaids (I've submitted it to the Lesbian Historical Motif podcast; fingers crossed!) and I enjoyed the process so much that I wanted to write more short stories... but I've realized that I'm much better at coming up with short stories if someone prompts me.
So I throw the doors open to you, gentle readers! Please prompt me for a short story you would like! The idea is to build up my stock of original fiction, so not fanfic prompts, although you could of course prompt a story where the dynamic is, let's say, "like Biggles/Von Stalhein with the serial numbers filed off."
The ultimate goal would be to get these stories published so I won't post them publicly (unless they fail to find a home anywhere in which case I might!), but I will email the story to the prompter so you can enjoy the fruits of your labors.
