As most of you know by now, Barbara Beacham, the lovely host of “Monday's Finish the Story” flash fiction challenge, passed away from cancer, on Sunday, November 22.
Because she was a beacon for many of us, several people have asked that a flash fiction challenge be done in her honor and in her memory. This is a 'special' challenge and does not replace the normal weekly challenge which will be posted as normal.
I have searched pixabay images for an appropriate photo and selected these photos. You may write about anything you wish, it doesn't have to be about what is in the photo/s. I just ask that, in some way, you honor the memory of Barbara Beacham.
