> Presenting the anthology of the SDMB Weekend Flash Fiction Contest. A quick recap of the rules - At 9 AM EDT, Friday, May 14th, 2010, I posted a link to a photo (found by random means) and also generated three words, again by random means, and posted those three words in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=561981). Writers still have until 9 PM EDT, Sunday, May 16th, 2010 to write an original piece of short fiction, no more than 2,000 words in length, based in some way on that photo and those three words. All interested part…

Took me a few seconds to find, searching for ‘flash fiction’.
