If you’ll forgive the shameless self-promotion (which to be honest you’re probably used to by now!) in honour of The Secret Science of Superheroes (out this month), which includes a chapter by David, we thought this might be a good prompt …
So you need to come up with a superhero (e.g. the Chocolateer), explore an aspect of their superpowers (total telekinetic mastery of cocoa based products) and save the world (or at least a corner of it). Bonus points for mad, spurious, dubious or secret science …
Deadline for submission is 2pm on Friday, 11th August 2017.
Word limit: anything from 100 upwards
Go!
