Please put it (or a link to it) in a comment or email it to me at My email address. by DEADLINE: 4pm EDT on Thursday, Subject: Fiction in a Flash Challenge. If you post it on your own blog or site, a link to this page would be much appreciated.

I fully intended to participate in this one as my mind went wild, but I never found a minute to write it down. 😦 This virtual school with the grandkids is kicking my behind!

I hear you, my friend. My respect for our teaching profession ramped up even higher after homeschooling my eight-year-old grandson for months.😁 Entries don’t close until 4.00 p.m EDT on August 27th. (Just in case you find a moment to breathe)❤
