Flash! Friday Week Four Contest

Welcome to Week 4 of SVWriters Flash! Friday. This is a weekly flash fiction writing competition which runs each Friday 9 am til 9 pm ET.  (Skim through the rules if you haven’t already.)

Short version: stories that don’t follow the prompt will be DQ’d. Comments on other stories? WELCOME! Comments after voting on the poll: encouraged! ♥ (Questions? Also welcome–add them in the comments on this post.) Submit your stories as a comment on this page (one entry per person). If you HAVE to make a change after posting, you may–but be sure to add “revised” on the new one so we know you did so. We will delete your original post. But no editing past tonight’s 9pm deadline.

Voting will begin as soon as the poll goes up on this page after 9 pm tonight. Voting is live until Saturday at 9 pm (24 hours to vote–can’t vote for your own).

LET’S PLAY! Today’s prompt is story-starting text:

–

Hands shaking, he opened the door

–

Your story MUST start with the words above. You’ve got about 150 words for your story, with some wiggle room this time–10 words on either side. I know! So generous!!! Give us between 140 – 160 words (including the prompt, but NOT counting your title, if you have one) telling us what happens next.

GO! WRITE! WIN!

We are now closed to new submissions. Let the voting begin! Please vote for only one entry. Everyone may vote whether you submitted an entry or not. Comments always welcome. Good luck writers!
