The Big Picture
A picture may be worth 1000 words, but can you do one justice in 300 (or fewer)?
We would be remiss in celebrating our tenth anniversary if we didn't raise a glass to our National Flash Fiction Day Artist in Residence, Jeanette Sheppard, who joined us in 2019 and has provided us with beautiful logos, anthology covers, and writing prompt images ever since. You can read our interview with Jeanette on the NFFD website.

At the bottom of this post are some of Jeanette's sketches and artwork that have been used as prompts in Write-Ins past. Choose one and write a flash in response.
If you'd like an extra challenge, incorporate a 'big picture' in your flash, in some sense. Maybe your story is about a large group of people rather than a single character. Maybe you 'zoom out' at the end and cover a long period of time. Maybe you have another way to interpret 'big picture' and relate it to one of the prompt images....
