Flash!Mob March26: A BRIDGE TOO FAR

The FLASH!MOB prompt for March 2026 is A BRIDGE TOO FAR

300 to 1k wobbly words... any genre... any style... go wild with the whatifs!

What if...

• you are standing on the bridge with a burning match in your hand...
• the grass looks greener over there but is it worth it to risk the wrath of the big bad troll...?
• every quantum bridge created so far has linked to a better reality... should you try one more?
• when someone suggested building a bridge between the two villages, no one thought about the curse...
• you look at the map... one more hill... one more bridge... what could be the harm?

Any of these or whatever springs to mind... have fun and happy writing.

Deadline: 27th March 2026

A note on wobbly word counts: 300 words is just a rough guide... anything up to 1k words or so is fine xx
