Welcome to Wednesday Words! Every Wednesday I will post some sort of prompt for a flash fiction piece. The prompt will go live just after midnight Eastern time.
The prompt might be a picture, or it might be a list of things to include in a story, or maybe a phrase or a question or something from a “news of the weird” type thing, or a… who knows?
After that, it’s up to you. But if you do use the prompt to write a bit of flash fiction (say, 500 words or so) I’d love to see what you came up with, so comment below with a link to where it is on your blog (or on WattPad or wherever).
(And a pingback to the post here where you found the prompt would be appreciated but isn’t necessary.)
Oh, and this isn’t a contest or anything. It’s just a (hopefully) fun thing for all concerned.
And, hey, if it inspires more than 500 or so words, run with it!
On 9/28/16 I used “You are an alien, the first of your race to discover/visit Earth. Write a report to send to your home world.”
This week’s prompt is aa variation on that theme:
You are an alien, on holiday to a primitive planet (Earth). Share a page from your travel journal.
And, as always, I’d love to see what you come up with!
(Sorry this week’s is late. I messed up the date.)
Novel Notes 
No problem…I’m sorry about all the misery you’ve had to deal with lately. (hugs) Thank you as always for the inspiration.
