I might have a go this year, I think there should be a theme, though, I think it needs a focus.

I say “freewheel”.

How about having a vote on the theme, as well as one on the size (historically we have a limit of 800 words [excluding title] and last year it was asked if we could expand to 1000). And we had the suggestion fo a second voting round...

In these dark times, it might be nice to read lots of stories on a 'positive' theme.

A vote seems like a good idea.

I would feel good with a feel-good story. 🙂

That would be nice reading at this time in the world.

@Ponderable
I'm in with or without a theme. A theme is challenging but then just writing anything is a challenge!

A theme or title makes it harder. Maybe more open is more inclusive for those absolute beginners of limited talent like me!

A rhyme,,,
for which we can spare some time
a red rose, a blue violet
the pain. how we can go without it.

I don't really mind, but voting would be harder in a free - for - all? I suggest we make it a thousand words max, it's a nice round figure, and have say, six titles for a vote.
My suggestion; The Mountain.

Which so far would give us;

A Dystopian Future
Happy Ending
Freewheel
The Mountain

But as I say, I'm easy whatever happens.
