Welcome to The Rats' Pit
A platform for all macabre short stories for the year 3000, depicting the worse scenarios of our modern day world.
The idea
The Rat's Pit is open to include short stories and ideas from other writers out there.
Each month a chapter of the Rat's Pit will be developed, some based on ideas you can email to Butter Wouldn't Melt.
