Hey Prosers! A lot of you know by now that I love reading about fun facts. So I'd like to do another challenge about fun facts, except with a twist. These are 10 facts about your own posts/stories/series/etc. Check description for more detail...
If you've ever watched any of Watchmojo or ChannelFrederator videos, they talk about some interesting facts about movies, shows, etc. So that's sorta what I would like you to post in this challenge. Just 10 interesting facts about any post you've made, or book you published on this site or another, or a series that you've been working on for a while, whatever you'd like to share about your work. The facts can be about anything from inspirations, true events or stories, references to other media, behind the scenes stuff, etc. So list 10 cool, interesting, unique facts about your work and share with everyone on Prose! Fill free to include links to your work so everyone can check them out too!

10 Facts about Playtime’s Over

1. I wrote this for my Creative Writing class two years for an assignment

2. The prompt I was given was, "A toy is left on a playground over night."

3. The character Mr. Bear actually comes from the name of the creepypasta character's bear, Sally. So I just took the bear and gave my own twist to him.

4. When I read the story to my class, I could barely get to the second page before everyone in the class was screaming for me to stop reading it. One boy actually ran to the bathroom because he thought he was going to be sick. (I didn't even get to any of the killings or any of the bad stuff yet!)

5. My teacher told me the story was not school appropriate and she gave it an R rating because of the details I had. Though she did say that I had the potential to be the next Steven King with my work. (her words not mine).

6. She even called my parents as she was concerned for my mental health after reading it and this story was one of the reasons I had begun visiting a therapist (I don't go to one anymore though).

7. Last year I had one of my friends go through and edit it with me, I even ended up writing an entirely new page from what I had before.

8. I would look up synonyms for the word crimson so it wasn't repeated so much.

9. I plan on expanding this story into a 20 chapter short novel. And then using the other 20 kids names that I've created to potentially write any entire series.10. Out of all my works, Playtime's Over is the one that I'm most proud of.
