it's may 2020 - welcome to the Micro Story Flash Fiction challenge! 

If you don't know what 'flash fiction' is, it's where the writer, YOU, are given a set time to complete a short piece of writing.  The subject matter is up to you. All you have to do is complete 200 words in two days. On the eve of the competition, all of you registered writers will be given one special word that you MUST put in your story. 

200 words is around three paragraphs! Can you come up with a complete story with a beginning, a middle and an end in such few words?

It's tricky but fun!
There are cash prizes for the first and second place stories, plus, if there are enough stories they will be collated into an eBook. All stories will receive that all important feedback, the life blood of any writer or would-be writer. The challenge begins at 9.00am BST on Saturday the 30th of May, and the deadline is 9.00am BST on Monday the first of June. So start thinking now!
