Flash Fiction Challenges
Since
2007, we have run a flash fiction contest in the "Fun and Games" folder
in Aphelion's forum. In the contest, we post a challenge with a
specific theme and participants get two weeks to write a flash story
based on the challenge guidelines. Then the members vote of the
stories, rating them in six different categories. It's a great place to
hone your writing skills, meet some fellow writers, receive some
feedback, and win a bragging rights. Flash stories from all of our
previous challenges are archived in the Flash Challenge Entries Index,
which lists over 750 stories. We lost many of those in the Great
SpamBot Attack of 2020, and we are currently rebuilding the archives.
As of this writing, I've gotten as far as January 2009. Please bear
with us.
New participants are always
welcome. Submissions for the contest are done through the forum. Just
click 'Flash Challenge' button in the Navbar link on the left side of
this screen, or go to the Fun And Games topic on the forums, to see
what we're up to right now
