NFFD 2024 Prompt #13: Flood Zone

 

 

Prompt #13: Flood Zone
WATER prompt C

Welcome to The Write-In!  This year, we're celebrating the 2024 National Flash Fiction Day Anthology theme of The Classical Elements - Air, Earth, Water and Fire. Throughout National Flash Fiction Day, we'll be posting one time-related prompt on the hour every hour from 00:00 until midnight (BST), for a total of 25 prompts in all.  You have until midnight on Sunday (BST) to submit your responses for possible publication here at the Write-In.  We'll start posting responses on Sunday, 16 June 2024....

On National Flash Fiction Day, NFFD's sister project FlashFlood publishes one story every five or ten minutes.  For this prompt, find a FlashFlood story that you like and choose five interesting words from it.  

Write a flash of no more than 100 words that uses all five of these words.

By 'interesting', we mean solid nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc.; 'he', 'and', 'is' don't count as 'interesting' for this prompt.

The title does not count towards the word count. Hyphenated words and words with apostrophes count as one word. For example, ‘five-o’clock shadow’ would count as two words.

If you’re submitting this to us, make sure to note that this is a response to Prompt 13: Flood Zone.

You can submit responses until 23:59 BST on Sunday, 16 June 2024 for a chance to be published here at The Write-In.

You can claim the badge for this prompt by visiting the badgifier here (hosted by the NFFD website).
