Need a Flash of Inspiration?

The Eratosphere Flash Fiction workshop is going splendidly so far...but it's not too late to join in the fun.

 I'll be sending out a prompt each day, and, in response, you are invited to submit a work of flash fiction--1,000 words or less.  You'll get useful feedback from other writers, and possibly also from me.  And after day five I'll be picking an overall winner from all the submitted stories.

Here is today's prompt.  I hope to see you at the 'Sphere!
