Step right up!  Get yer tickets for Flash Fiction Month 2014 here!¹

July 1st marks the start of the sixth FLASH FICTION MONTH  WOOHOOO!

I bet you thought we'd forgotten, didn'tya?  I bet you were all relieved and thinking you'd have July all to yourself and you weren't going to have to come up with the best freaking short prose of your life for a whole month of days according to the whims of a sadistic multi-headed quasi-demonic entity this year, didn'tya? 

You were wrong.

To prove how wrong you were, sign up below.  In your signup, let us know either:

What you're hoping to get out of the month;
A challenge you'd like to see; or
A challenge you'd hate to see².

Missed the bus?  Don't worry, late signups are always welcome.  A handy FAQ is available.  An official announcement announcing the month will follow in due course.

Want to take it up a notch?  If you're an FFMer with at least one year's FFMing under your belt and you want to assist the FFM team with setting prompts, creating challenges, modding chat, judging writing and other awesome things, note this account telling us what you'd like to do to help.

Signed up?  Now get to filling the prompt bank:

  Official FFM Prompt Bank 2014:iconflash-fic-month:
This promptmobile has been parked up rusting for a whole year.  It needs an oil change, a lick of paint and some air in the tyres. We're presently sourcing some fluffy dice for the mirror and a nice novelty airfreshener.
Most importantly, though, the tank is dry as a bone.  
Time to siphon us off some promptjuice.  Fuel us up with your best original prompts for people to dip into during the month when they need creative jump leads.
As always, the chosen few will be chosen, featured and credited in our daily updates.
Protip: We can always use visual prompts, musical prompts, prompts in the form of interpretive dance and other variegated promptitudinousness as well as the usual prompts made of words.
VIVA LA FFM!

VIVA!
