I participated in 2021 and 2022 for the Flash Fiction Challenge. The first thing I got from the challenge is that I could write everyday--even it was a thousand words or less. It means I wrote about 20-thousand words or more in February. That tells me I could write a novel in a year. Currently I work on flash fiction or short stories, but there are days that go by when I don't write. Reading and writing go together so while I did the Flash Fiction Challenge I was also participating in a local library challenge where you read a book, posted a short review for points and a chance to win a prize. The reading spurred the writing even though I didn't necessarily mimic what I read.
