Ok… so I have an idea…

What if we had monthly flash fiction?

Here’s how it would work:

I would post a writing prompt at the beginning of every month. Whether that be a picture prompt, a beginning sentence, word writing prompt, etc. Then, each of us could write a flash fiction based off of the prompt. You don’t have to participate every month if you don’t want to. This is just to help us write something every month. Flash fiction is really short, only a few hundred words. I’d say the limit for us would be 300-800 words. Does that sound reasonable? I’d post the first prompt at the beginning of April to kick us off.

So what do you think? Would y’all be interested in participating?

(We would not be critiquing each others work. We would just be reading it and posting our own. Just wanted to be clear on that. 🙃)

I’m totally down! Or I’m totally up… maybe I’m some hyperbolic vector for that!

I’m glad you’re some hyperbolic vector for that!

And @light-warrior-pen and @sarafini. Sorry I forgot to tag you both right away. 😅 There’s a lot of people to keep track of on KP. (Which is not a bad thing. 😉 )

Please do look it up! Hyperbolic geometry is beautiful!

I’d do it! Sounds great, I love trying new story ideas but I can’t write a novel for each XD

Sounds like a great idea! I’m not sure how much I’ll be able to participate, but I’ll try to.
