WELCOME !
50th Challenge
Flash Fiction for Aspiring Writers
Week of 01-26 through 02-01-2016
This week's photo prompt is provided by Sonya, owner of the blog, Only 100 Words. Thank you Sonya!
Guide for Flash Fiction for Aspiring Writers
1. A prompt photo will be provided each Tuesday to be used as a base to your story. Please include photo prompt with your story.
2. Linking for this challenge begins on Tuesday and runs to the following Monday evening.
3. Please credit photo to photographer
4. The story word limit is 100 – 150 words (+ – 25 words). Please try and stay within this limit.
5. Pingback to the challenge post in your story's post.
6. This is a flash fiction challenge (stories in 100-175 words or less) and each story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end. Therefore, no serial (continuation) stories. They become too complicated for our readers.
7. Add your story to the InLinkz Link-up (Blue Froggy button). If you need link-up instructions, please email me at mepricelessjoy@gmail.com.
*8. Please keep your stories no more than PG 13 rating.
9. Remember, half the fun is reading and commenting on each other's stories.
***H A V E**F U N*** !!
Ha ha, I genuinely just went, “oh, I’ve taken a picture just like this”, before I saw that it is my picture 😀

Congratulations on 50! I so much appreciate all that you do. I did just notice rule #*8 I think my submissions so far have been ok. I don’t usually write anything risque, but you never know where the story will go. Oh, I better look up what exactly pg-13 is and be more mindful!

LOL! Most people don’t write anything risqué but I thought I had better add that into the rules “just in case.” Thank you so much for the congratulations. It felt really good to put 50th on the challenge! Almost 1 year old!

Here is my contribution to your flash fiction challenge:
https://sparksfromacombustiblemind.wordpress.com/2016/01/27/yellow-frivolity/
It is 167 words. I was worried about that, I had trimmed a great deal off it to make it fit, and then I read “This is a flash fiction challenge (stories in 100-175 words or less) ” and went “phew”. More pruning might have killed the idea altogether.
Thank you for hosting this challenge. I really enjoy flash fiction, but didn’t know anyone was hosting it any more.
Thanks again! 🙂

Quick question! Out of curiosity, do you accept suggestions for the photo prompt?
LikeLike
I don’t accept suggestions, but I do accept photos for the photo prompt. Whoever sends me a photo – I don’t guarantee that I will use it but most of the time I do. There have been a few sent to me that I didn’t use. Giving me a suggestion doesn’t do any good without a photo to back it up.
LikeLike
Ah, that’s what I meant by suggestion: sending in a photo. Follow up question: can we only send in photos we took or can we send in photos by another blogger (giving them credit ofc)?
LikeLike
Yes, you can send in photos from another blogger (with their permission, of course).

One more question (I’m so sorry if I’m pestering you, I promise this is the last one!), how would one go about sending you a photo for the prompt?
