Reena’s Xploration Challenge #296

Posted on by Reena Saxena

Welcome to another week!

PROMPT #296

A phrase by Arundhati Roy (winner of the Booker Prize for fiction in 1997) caught my attention –

Fiction in the time of fake news.

I coined a few of my own inspired by it.

  • Letters in the time of instant messaging
  • Books in the time of apps
  • Lies in the post-truth era
  • Human proficiency in ChatGPT era
  • Freedom in the times of listening devices

Feel free to coin some of your own in the same spirit, or use one or more from the above, including the inspiration from Arundhati Roy, and base your piece on it.

There is no restriction on format of the piece. There is no last date either, unless you wish to be featured in the Weekly Wrap. 

Any post that is found to be offensive, vulgar or something that hurts common sensibilities will not be included. This needs to be a safe space.

Create a post on your blog, and copy-paste the link in Comments. In case you are using a pingback, do check back to see if it has worked.
