Tell a short fantasy story about a baker who sells unfinished dreams.

Neri wrapped each unfinished dream in warm paper. Most customers asked for flying. One elderly man chose a half-built garden. The next morning, he returned with a packet of seeds. I think, he said, I can finish this one awake.

Write a tiny mystery about a clock that gains one minute every night.

Each morning, the kitchen clock was a minute ahead. Tom blamed the battery until he noticed a fresh footprint beneath it. He waited after midnight. His daughter appeared on a stool. If tomorrow comes sooner, she whispered, perhaps the holidays will too.

Write a very short story about a missing umbrella returned with a note.

Example draft

The umbrella arrived on Tuesday, dry despite the rain. Inside was a note: Thank you for the shelter. Beneath it, a small drawing showed the bus stop where Mina had left it. The next wet morning, she carried two umbrellas.
