Sorry all, this is a bye week for the Flash Fiction Challenge. [For those unfamiliar, a BYE WEEK is a sports term for when a team has the week off. The challenge will be back this weekend. Please also keep in mind that IU is run by ONE person, so sometimes these things happen. Thanks for your patience!]
Here’s a photo for you, though, if you want to just write something with no competition for this week since it’s short notice. If you do want to have the competition anyway, just let us know in comments and I’ll make it so. I hope you are all well and safe and happy on this last day of February!


In sports, they call it a “Bye” week – when a team doesn’t have a game. That’s what we’re doing this week for the Flash Fiction Challenge. This isn’t because we need a break – it’s because COVID has hit IU management.
Sorry about the break this week with the Flash Fiction Challenge. Schedules didn’t permit getting a prompt up in time. We’ll be back this Saturday with a new prompt, so get ready! Thanks for your patience. – The Admin.
