You are a deity newly ascended. Your predecessor has perished, and their domain (now yours) is in shambles. Instead of repairing it first, you went down to the world and did the dirty practical work instead of the grandiose, aloof things other deities do.

help us tag your entries! ✨✨✨

no, no, no, not with comments, those will always come from the collective itself. no, this goes out to all you fanfiction writers among you! as so many of you contribute fun entries each week, it gets harder for us to correctly tag your fandoms when we reblog your entries (especially if we can't know what is original works or fanfics! we can't spend googling each entry's main characters!). so from today onward, please make sure to add a hashtag for your fandom!

choose ONE tag for each fandom in your post

make sure to keep it brief: what would most people look for if they wanted to find this fandom or avoid it?

we are aware that some fandoms have quite complex tagging systems (notably marvel cinematic universe) -- still. one tag. if it includes multiple characters from different movies, just tag it marvel.

if you write RPF, tag the person's name + RPF

ideally your tags will look like this:

# fandom: [fandomname] # fandom: [some actor RPF] # fandom: [number one], # fandom: [number two]

this way, we will be able to easily copy your tag and have a coherent tagging system for fanfiction on our blog! thank you so much for helping us with this.

important note: for now, not following this rule will not lead to us ignoring your entries, but we will bug you about it! ✨

as clarification:

you can use absolutely whatever tags you want and need as usual! we just want that sweet, sweet extra tag in our format somewhere in your tags so we can steal it for our blog :)

it really saves us a lot of work and we'd be super thankful if you helped us with this <3

They taught us in physics that an object in motion stays in motion unless something acts on it and i didn't care at the time but as a writer i think about this constantly. your character cannot just stop. something has to stop them. something external, something internal, something that costs them. a person doesn't change direction for no reason. a story doesn't either. newton was writing craft advice and nobody told him.

✨ Today is Friday, it's clear as day!

So obviously, you need to write! Flash Fiction Friday is calling!

✨ New to FFF? Let us fill you in!

Flash Fiction Friday is a fun writer event that’s meant to inspire, share and connect writings of all genres and writers of all ages. It’s designed to make people want to write, especially if they’re feeling blocked. Everyone and everything is welcome!

We always do our very best to keep the prompt’s genre open, entertaining, positive and encouraging.

Write between 100-1000 words. It can be any genre, in any text format and 18+ is fine by us, just please tag accordingly.

Use this Friday’s theme in your text. Any way you see fit. This means that your text is newly written for the prompt by you. We do not allow any contributions created or aided by AI/LLM.

Post on your tumblr blog and remember to tag us at @flashfictionfridayofficial!! So we’ll see it, read it and reblog it!!

Deadline is 24 hours after the prompt has been issued (12 pm CET).

And then, next Friday, we’ll mention your work in a showcase post on our main blog before our next prompt drops.

Please post your entries as regular posts, not screenshots — or provide the text as a regular post as well. Let’s keep everything as accessible as possible!

We ask you to tag your works with any appropriate content warnings and let the reader know what they’ll find before they get the chance to read your work!

If you have a question, check out our FAQ page! If your question isn’t on there, don’t hesitate to ask!

You don’t need to ask for permission or need to get added to a list to join in. Just write, have fun and don’t forget to tag us!

Tag your fandoms correctly and remember we now have an Ao3 collection (‘FlashFictionFriday’) ✨

We do not condone fiction, asks or comments that glorify: direct hostility, unconstructive critique, LGBTQIA+ hate, slurs, racism and/or general no-no behaviors.

If you want to be closer to the epicenter, you can come chat on our open discord: https://discord.gg/rUWCE8a

✨ We also introduced our very own Wishing Well, a place for you to whisper your prompt suggestions into. And we’ll listen! Check everything about it out HERE.

✨All your amazing works from last week can be found HERE.

Go check them out and consider supporting your fellow FFF writers with some likes and reblogs!

✨ And now, the new prompt!

[#357 It's So Obvious]

It's so obvious, duh! But what is? And to whom? What is obvious to us now can be harder to see for others. Tell us about the puzzle pieces needed to grasp the obvious, full picture! Tell us what is plain as day, that everyone already knows about! Whether said in frustration, eagerness or a secret third thing, we want to know all about it! So go and write, write, write!!

A demon has cursed you with the inability to have children or form a family, and as soon as you learn of this you went to tell the witch who you promised your firstborn child, as this clearly will prevent you from fulfilling your side of the deal.

Hey! Just a reminder! AO3 does NOT have an app. This garbage was made by theives who steal fan artist’s work and sell it back to you.

“Oh, but it’s free!” There are ads. They are making money off of this. They are stealing from the creators you love and you are hurting those same creators if you use this app or any similar app.

Don’t use it. Report it at every opportunity.

“Now, what would you accept as payment?” “Give me a few minutes, I-“ “Unusual, but granted. Spend them however you like.”

Ok extra context from your friendly neighborhood Master's Degree holding archivist:

Archives are "curated" according to what's called a "collection policy". That means a policy that dictates what you collect; usually along a theme. For example at the university I used to work at the collection policy was to collect archival material pertaining to the local area and its history/important figures. At the historic home I currently work at, the collection policy covers materials pertaining to the person who lived at the house.

AO3 collects fan works and original writing. That's it. That's how they "curate". They don't allow a copy paste of published works (for legal reasons) and they don't allow commissioned works (for legal reasons) . Everything else that falls under fan works and original writing is part of their collection policy. Everything. That's how archives work.
