Contest Welcome 2024! First Fortnight Flash Fiction Jan 1-14, 2024

This is a really fun class. Allowing the winner to pick the prompts gives great diversity. The only thing I would say to do differently is have the winner picked by actual judges. There does not seem to be enough involvement yet to pick winners from voting, sometimes every story only gets one or two votes.
I was not expecting the prompt to be just an image, although this is my first contest. Perhaps a genre would be nice next time. I also continue to struggle with the links and finding the actual stories as they are posted. It seems there are too many links rather than a simple drill-down or menu pull-down method. I found myself going down a number of rabbit holes without finding what I was looking for.
