Twist Ending in 50 words or less.
In such a short amount of words it is hard to tell any story. See if you can write a story that sets expectations and subverts them in the word limit. Change the genre from horror to funny or the opposite. Or trick the reader into believing there is something there is not and reveal it in the last line. Surprise us. Here is an example of a short story by Hemingway: For sale: baby shoes, never worn.

Indelible Ink

Spring yields summer;

Thoughts of you

Fists of flowers;

Blush and blue

Fall, crimson leaves

Rain’s pounding kiss

Moon’s silver weave

Pierced cloud‘s eclipse

Season’s, hues — all syllables

But, green speaks best of you

In volumes, writ indelible

By hand, in black and blue
