The #fridayflash Report

It looks like we had around sixty-two stories this week. I always seem to miss a few, thus the fuzzy math. If I left you out let me know. I struggled on whether or not to include a couple of them, as they are from people with protected Twitter accounts. I don't want to intrude on anyone's privacy, so I left them out. I'm trying to contact them to see if they would like to be added. So stay tuned. The list may end up reflecting the number before long.



Some people asked me if it was OK to post a previously posted or published story. Sure. As long as it's yours and you have the rights to it I don't care how old it is. The idea is to showcase your work. Tweet away.



I also don't care if you post more than one story a week. Ten or fifteen would get a little annoying, but if you want to show off something old, something new, go for it. Just nothing borrowed. Blue is OK too.



I've been toying with a 'Best Of' anthology. There are a few other people who have also expressed an interest in that, or something similar. Any thoughts? Would any of you be interested in participating in a Best Of #fridayfalsh anthology?



OK, now for what you are really here for. Ladies and gents, I give you this week's flash:
