WRiting Contest #4
Meeting the Myth
What happens when the stories you’ve always believed in suddenly stand before you, real and undeniable? The "Meeting the Myth" Monologue Writing Contest dares you to explore the moment where myth collides with reality—and where beliefs are challenged like never before.
Picture a face-to-face encounter with a legendary figure: a god, a monster, a hero—or perhaps something entirely unexpected. What would you ask them? How would they answer? Would their presence affirm what you’ve always known or shatter the foundations of your understanding?
This is your opportunity to craft a monologue that wrestles with the very essence of belief, truth, and self-discovery. Through your words, invite us into a moment of confrontation or revelation, where the mythical is not just a story but a force that shakes what you hold to be true.
Will you question their reality—or your own? Let your voice challenge the boundaries between myth and belief, leaving us with more questions than answers. What story will you tell, and how will it change us?
