For Valentine’s Day, let’s have a love story …

As always, we don’t mind how you spin it – whether it be romantic, tragic, cheesy, quirky or quaint. Just keep it clean, nothing NSFW please.
Word count: 500-750
Deadline: when else – 8am GMT on Sunday, 14th February 2021
As always, if you miss or can’t make this deadline, you can always use our #TortoiseFlashFiction page.
A reminder to new readers/writers, please post on your own site and add a link in the comments section below. If you don’t have your own blog or similar outlet, do send us your story via the contact form on the About page and we’ll post for you, with an appropriate by-line – you retain the copyright.
One caveat, if you want to go down this route: this is a family show, so we reserve the right not to post anything that strays into NSFW or offends against ‘common decency’.
