#FFC52 week 29
submissions are in!
It’s important that every writer have a tribe, a community in which we can be challenged, be vulnerable, and of course, be read! For me, the FFC#52 challenge is just that–our tribe, our community! For this, I thank all of you! Perhaps you might even get a little crazy and join us!
Share your Flash Fiction stories on Twitter: #FFC52.
This week’s prompt was the brain-child of incomparable Bree from Read me my Writes. She suggested, “Although extreme flash fiction stories have been found pre-dating Hemingway, he was the one who really made it popular when he wrote his six-word novel. His story: ‘For Sale: baby shoes, never worn,’ shows us in a mere six words the tragedy of a baby’s death.” Thanks for the submission idea, Bree!
Week Twenty-eight

I know there are some who didn’t really like the challenge and when I first suggested it, I thought, eh how hard could 6 words be? But I quickly found out that, yes, you could throw any six word sentence up there, but to make an impact with those six words was the true challenge. And it was much harder to do than having a full 500 to do the explaining for you!
I loved the challenge! Have several other six-word stories written on the Notes app of my phone! Totally appreciate your suggestion, Bree!
