Flash Club Announcement

[Barbara]

Dear Flashers

After some umm-ing and aaah-ing, I've decided that time has come for me to step down from the Flash Club and let some fresh blood seep into the competition. So, as of July, @Emily will be your new Flash Club Queen. She did such a grand job hosting it earlier this year, that I'll happily leave you in her very competent hands. I know she'll inject you with plenty of inspiration (and virtual cake) with her wonderful imagination and flair.

I'd like to say a big THANK YOU to all who have participated and supported the comp. You have amazing skills and talents, and you have created amazing worlds in sometimes only a few words. I always excitedly clicked on the alerts when a new entry was posted in the thread. So thank you all. Without you it wouldn't have been the fun place that it is. It's been a pleasure to be your Flash Chick for the past two plus years, and I've enjoyed myself tons.

So here you go, Emily. I'm handing you the baton. Over to you.

 

[Emily]

Thank you Barbara, I hope I shall be a worthy baton- carrier to follow in your wonderful footsteps

Thanks @Barbara for running the show. Though I haven't uploaded an effort every time, they've been great prompts for writing exercises.
Thanks @Emily for taking over. I look forward to more exercises and an occasional entry.

I feel a title or two coming on for my first submission to Emily:
'The Killer Cake' perhaps subtitled: 'A Recipe for Disaster'

I will keep you to that, young man ( will fit nicely with our July prompts )

We’ll done @Barbara A great two years in the seat. You’ve played a blinder.

All best wishes and success to @Emily for taking up the reins. You’ll do a grand job, so.

[Emily]

Now, now, children, quit squabbling. I'll make you one each

 

[Barbara]

Could you make a tiered sort of thing?

 

[Emily]

I was kinda thinking that...

I was trying to find a photo, no joy: tch! I'll tell you what, I'll make the cake, photograph it, eat it and report back whether I reckon ye will like it or not??

 

[Steve C]

Being called a young man and with a promise of cake to come, has made my day!!!
I feel a drink might be in order. Hmm... gone 10pm here, whiskey it is
Cheers

 

[Emily]

Sure, have one for me while you're at it
