"Found" FLASH FICTION Contest
Write a "Found" Flash Fiction (250-1000 word) story. "Find" your inspiration from a fiction book currently on your shelves, using page 88 and paragraph three. Discover your story 'nugget' from the prose you find there.
You may look at THREE books (only) before choosing one of them as your inspiration.
Your Author Notes must include:
1.) the line that inspired your story (verbatim)
2.) book title and author name
3.) your story's word count
*Keep in mind that true flash fiction is not about a 'snippet of time'. It is a complete story in a short format that still requires a beginning, middle (climax) and conclusion.
Maximum number of words = 1000.
The contest winner will win half of the prize pool of 90.00 member dollars. In this contest at least 2 submissions must be made for the vote to begin.
Deadline: Contest is closed. Deadline was Thursday, May 12, 2016.
