[{"comment":"Thanks for the kind comments. I too used to really hate maths, but now I work some of the time as a maths tutor! A lot of Young People I work with don't like the subject and I try to lighten things a bit by poking fun at the world in which maths questions happen. This world is Maths Land. Where else would anyone do all the crazy things they do in maths questions?","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/chris-bullivant\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2793090\/thumbnail_eeeefd9159ca2f9c62c4986cb4e6b169c3c8a7bd.jpg","author_name":"Chris Bullivant"},{"comment":"Hi Chris,Congratulations on the shortlist! This was an incredibly clever take on the prompt, and I loved smiling through each, and every sentence. Although you managed to create lots of creepy moments, I thought that the humor you used to balance out the piece brought it home. I, too, despised math as a child. The twist at the very end was a perfect payoff to the story. Nice work!!","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/amanda-lieser\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/avatar\/default\/cf681cfbf3c282528fea28596536f592630842e7.png","author_name":"Amanda Lieser"},{"comment":"Thanks so much!","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/chris-bullivant\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2793090\/thumbnail_eeeefd9159ca2f9c62c4986cb4e6b169c3c8a7bd.jpg","author_name":"Chris Bullivant"},{"comment":"https:\/\/themyelitedatequest.life\/?u=0uww0kv&o=1e0px26","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/6ab211\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2893081\/thumbnail_c771a3958d649e9fbe4cbf80fdaf35b4c534bd98.jpg","author_name":"\u0418\u043b\u044f\u044f \u0418\u043b\u0447\u043a\u0430"},{"comment":"Congrats. Little confused but it must be due to math appearing here many times. I am useless with that.","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/philip-ebuluofor\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/avatar\/default\/3ddbb55116373e04a0b9c15f93eb1706e4a87bee.png","author_name":"Philip Ebuluofor"},{"comment":"Aww thanks for the kind comments guys. I spend a lot of time talking to teens about exams (I sometimes work as a tutor) and the questions are so weird that I started saying they were "in maths land". I have another sci-fi short that's just been e-published but I'm not sure I'm allowed to mention it as it's on another platform.","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/chris-bullivant\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2793090\/thumbnail_eeeefd9159ca2f9c62c4986cb4e6b169c3c8a7bd.jpg","author_name":"Chris Bullivant"},{"comment":"Fun story Chris! Reminded me of the educational videos I used to show my kids to help them learn their numbers \ud83d\ude04 they were truly horrendous. I think being stuck in one of them would be a special kind of hell. Poor Tariq. Congratulations!","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/derrick-m-domican\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2566755\/thumbnail_983972abc17d60193ea1febb8b982ac456426162.jpg","author_name":"Derrick M Domican"},{"comment":"Congrats on your story!

Micro universe's, aliens, life on Cere's. Would have been nice to have a little more of the realisation act to build suspense and mystery, but regardless of my opinion congratulations on the shortlist Chris.
