Stranger Sagas

Middle & High Years

What happens when an ordinary day turns... extraordinary?

Imagine the moment when your creativity sparks, when you realize that in just 100 words you can create suspense, unravel a mystery, or turn a reader's world upside down. That's the magic of Stranger Sagas - you can write a story to excite, thrill or surprise your reader.

The postcards will kick-start your ideas: who are the characters? What events unfold? How does the story end? The theme is open to interpretation, so you can write about anything inspires you, and in any genre. 

There are just 2 rules you need to know: it must be 100 words or under, and it must be your own original work.  

Download the graphic organizer today and see what mysteries you will unravel!

This pack is inspired by the idea that something ordinary can suddenly become strange or unexpected. You don’t need to know anything about ā€˜Stranger Things’ - just bring your imagination!
