Immortality in Hell

I started 2026 with a new challenge, inspired by the success of a well-received challenge on Elon Musk, the alien I hosted at the end of 2025.

This challenge was to send Putin, who thinks he is immortal, to Hell. The Jan.20 deadline has passed, but I was too sick to finalize it right away. So I am doing it now by sending the tips out (check!) and putting this index story together. Rereading the entries gave me so much joy! They are all absolutely great and you should check them all out.

Here are all the glorious entries in the order they were submitted:

1. Raymond G. Taylor

2. Pamela Williams

3. Susan Payton

4. Michelle Liew Tsui-Lin

5. Mike Singleton 💜 Mikeydred

6. Cristal S

7. Susan Payton, again

8. Gregory Payton

9. Andrea Corwin

10. Matthew J. Fromm

It was so much fun to host the challenge, and I thank everyone who participated for playing along.

The challenge itself with my starter drabbles is here:

And my own Drabbles on the theme, just for fun:

1. Immortality Pill Failure

2. Immortal on Christmas

3. Immortal? To Hell!

4. A longer story for Liam Storm's Catch-22 challenge:

    I had so much fun with this challenge, Lana, thanks for hosting it, and I hope you are feeling better soon. Since you are on the East Coast, we will see what the snow storm will bring. You notice it keeps changing all the time. And I missed one of your entries. I love drabbles.

  • I had so much fun reading the entries this challenge hehehehehe

    My hands were itching as I wanted to add my two cents. I have read some but not all so I have reading ahead of me.
