Am recovering from breast cancer surgery this month. You have no idea how much creative hope a “glimmer” provides, especially as healing seems to take so much mental/physical/spiritual energy. Enjoy your holiday, Kathy. 🩷
Annie, I’m glad the prompts provided you some creative hope! I’m sending you all good, positive healing thoughts right now and onward on your journey. Have a lovely, restful holiday. ❤️
This is wonderful Kathy! Thank you for your generosity in sharing your brilliant insights into writing flash pieces. Have a restful Christmas with renewed creativity in 2025. X
Kathy, this list of prompts is such a gift. I can’t wait to dig in. I wanted to tell you that I attended your Webex workshop last week and your prompts were so inspiring. I wrote two beautiful pieces from that, and when they’re published, I will definitely give you credit. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I wish you a very Merry Christmas!
Thank you! I'm traveling, which always induces joy (visit with first grandchild) and dread (writing goes to hell). Little prompts to keep me going. Happy holidays to all.
Ah, enjoy your road trip and visit with your grandchild! My first and only grandchild is going to be here for Christmas. I'm so excited! Thanks for reading!
What fun! I may not do all (or any) of these as the busyness of the holidays ramps up, but these prompts are evergreen and I’ll be revisiting them.
Oh wonderful! Thanks for reading, Andrew!
thank you - I am a hoarder of prompts and very appreciative of these
My pleasure, Kerry! Enjoy!

Tracie, that's great to hear! Thanks for taking part in the workshop and thanks for subscribing to my newsletter! Merry Christmas to you, too!
I appreciate these prompts and intend to use every one of them! Thank you and happy 2025!
Oh, I'm so glad Leslie! Thank you so much and yes, here's to a great 2025!
Check out my friend Jan Elman Stout—she is a master of flash fiction and has won awards for it
Thank you
If you go to my substack things we love and search for flash fiction the entry will come up
Thanks, I'll check it out!
Yes, I know it’s a small world. I’m a painter myself but also write a weekly newsletter. I featured Jan one time
How great you know her. She was my college roommate! I was just visiting her in Chicago
A lot of us know each other in the flash world. I've hung out with Jan in person, too. She's a lovely person.
