Flash Fiction Challenge: “The Torch”
  • Uhh, holy shit. Last week’s 100-word-story contest had over 100 entries…! Go check out the entries. I’ll pick a winner by the end of this weekend. Keep your grapes peeled.

    See that photo?

    That’s your challenge. Take a good long look. Think about what you see. And leaping forth from the flames you will find a story inspired by that photo. Whatever story it is, whatever genre you find it in, write it.

    Let that image be your narrative guide.

    You’ve got 1000 words.

    Post it online at your blog.

    Then link back here.

    Then drop a comment below and point us to your story.

    That’s all you gotta do.
