If it’s Friday, we have a new Image Flash! The author of this one is Brittany Bendabout.
Remember “the rules”: get inspired by the image and write. That’s it. Make it log or short. Do it on your webspace of choice. All is up to you. If you want me to take a look, use the #ImageFlash hashtag on Twitter and I’ll try to drop by. In short, I just offer this writing propmt and you do what you want with it.
I’ll have my own story up here when I can, and besides that, see you next week with a new prompt.
Welcome to my web space. This site has been in my mind for quite some time, and after the… weird 2020, I’ve finally decided to give it a try. And what best than to start it on the first day of 2021?
And I wanted to begin with a weekly writing prompt that, thanks to the input of some online writing friends, I’m going to call Image Flash. Here’s how it works: each week I’ll pick a random image from the beautiful website Unsplash, and that will be the prompt. I’ll have a week to write a story, and I’ll post it here (and possibly elsewhere). No more rules. No fixed length, no nothing. I do have a preference for flash fiction, though, hence the name of this writing game.
If you want to join in, please feel free to do so. Just use the prompt as inspiration and write your story, be it a long one in your own web space or a short tweet-long one, or anything in-between. I’ll try to acknowledge you, unless this explodes (I don’t think so).
That’s all. Have fun!
Note: Images at Unsplash can be used freely, but I like to give attribution. I’ll choose the weekly prompt using Unsplash’s random image generator tool. I’ll keep the first random image unless I cannot find the author, or it’s too similar to a previously used one.
