Every week, Rochelle Wisoff-Fields (thank you, Rochelle!) hosts a flash fiction challenge, to write a complete story, based on a photoprompt, with a beginning, middle and end, in 100 words or less. Post it on your blog, and include the Photoprompt and Inlinkz on your page. Link your story URL. Then the fun starts as you read other peoples’ stories and comment on them!

Dumping the Future
The men had guns. They also had my daughters.
“We’ve had enough of scientists,” drawled one of them. “They were the ones got us into this mess.”
The one who seemed to be in charge said, “You’re gonna dump all your electrical goods, all computers, mobile phones, everything.”
“And then…?”
“Then your girls still have a father, and we won’t need to take care of them.”
“Where do you want it dumped?”
He shrugged. “Who cares?”
It took two days, but my girls are back.
I’ve missed cold beer this summer.
I hope I’ve cut enough logs for the winter.
