Welcome to the seventh challenge for Flash Fiction for Aspiring Writers!
This week I am presenting two prompt photos. You may choose one photo or both photos. You may write one story or several stories. It’s completely up to you. (If you like having several prompt photos for one challenge, then there will be more challenges like this in the future).
Thank you for your participating and for being the reason this challenge is a success. Keep coming back!
If you are a new participant to Flash Fiction to Aspiring Writers, WELCOME! We are happy you are with us and hope you have FUN!
A special thank you to the established and professional writers who have joined our flash fiction group to participate, have fun and be our mentors.
Please indicate on your post IF YOU DO NOT WANT CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK.
