The #fridayflash Report – Week 28

A word cloud of for Week 28

Word cloud generated with http://www.wordle.net/

I would like to thank my friend, Susan, for getting The #fridayflash Report out for me last week. I had a family medical emergency to deal with and she was a life saver. I spent a good deal of my time at the hospital last week so I did not get around to reading and tweeting as many stories as usual. All is well now, so no worries on the medical front at this stage.

Because I was so out of pocket last week I also did not get a chance to welcome our debut authors. So please look at last week’s report and give Louise Dragon and Kim Batchelor a warm welcome. We have Three debut authors this week. Please welcome give Chad Redden, Sarah Snell-Pym, and Mike Procter a warm welcome. We had 54 other stories for a total of  55 stories (your results may vary).

If your story is not in the listing please go to the Collector, enter the details, and I’ll add it to the list.
