Sarah Brentyn of Lemon Shark has set up a wonderful challenge with a promise to donate money to a very worthy cause. Here is what she has to say.
Harvey, Irma, Maria… These hurricanes have hit hard, leaving massive damage in their wakes. Here’s how you can help:
1. Write a piece of flash fiction in 50 words or less with the theme: Help
(This can be any sort of assistance, support, encouragement, or a story of someone or something that needs help. You do not need to use the prompt word. Be creative! It can be 50 words, 15 words…even a six-word story. Anything goes provided it is prose up to 50 words. It doesn’t have to be sunshine and rainbows but keep it PG and friendly.)
2. Add a new post on your blog with your flash fiction and the hashtag #Flash4Storms in the title
3. Link to this post
4. Leave a comment here with a link to your post so I know you’ve participated
5. Help spread the word on social media with the hashtags:
#Flash4Storms #LemonSharkCharity
I will donate $1 to hurricane relief for every flash that is posted (up to $50).
And to top it all, Diana WP of Myths Of The Mirrorhas decided to match the donation.

After the storm came the calm. Nothing moved , it was so silent the rain and the wind for now apeased. They looked around nothing untouched nothing whole.
What to do they all wandered then the noise stared up again…..it was the sound of a Chinook the sound of help.
