Fiction Weekend Prompt for 6/1 - 6/3 2012

Rate: 7 Flag

Hi, all!

This week's prompt is:

Write a flash fiction story - that is, a story of up to 500-600 words.

You can write it on any topic, but if you'd like a little more inspiration, here are two suggestions:

1. Use a Fiction Weekend writing prompt from the past year. This could be one that you didn't write something for the first time around, or it could be one you've already written something for.

2. Begin the story with this sentence: "He [or She, depending on the gender of the character] always hated occasions like this."

Again, these are only suggestions; your flash fiction piece can be on any topic you like.

Or, if that doesn't inspire you, write a fiction piece on any topic, in any style you want.

I'll post the Stories List Thursday night or Friday morning, and participants are free to announce their stories throughout the weekend.

REMEMBER, everyone is welcome to participate in the OS Weekend Fiction Club - the only requirement is that your piece be a work of fiction.

If you don't know what "Fiction" means in terms of this blog, please see this post for an explanation.

If you feel inspired, come join in! For information on how, check out the basic info in the profile column, near the top left of the border of our blog.

Happy writing!
