Encounter with an "Imaginary Being"

Fugitive Pieces short stories are due by the end of the period in FINISHED form.  Be sure to spell check and revise.

NEW ASSIGNMENT a/la Bloodsucking Fiends (it's that time of year!)
Write a short piece that involves an encounter with an "imaginary being" --a little touch of magic realism, here.  Your short fiction piece can be funny, sarcastic, spooky, or "deadly serious."  What would it be like
to talk to or perform an action  with a ghost, a werewolf, an angel, a zombie, or yes, a vampire?

Give it a try.  Consider it a writing prompt for you to experiment with.

Other things:  Writing contests--Check out Bennington's writing contest and The Blue Pencil online.
