Flash Fiction… Funday? – Felled

So many effs. I wrote this yesterday (also not a Friday, hah), but forgot to post it. It’s set in the same world as one of my WIPs but not actually related to the story. Hope you enjoy it!

Flash Fiction Friday – That’s No Elf!

We’ve been watching The Rings of Power so here’s a little elfy snippet. Hope you enjoy! That’s No Elf! The thing about Elves is that they’ve always frightened me a little. Not the way that wolves and their slavering jaws frighten me, or the way that lightning does. No, the way that the waters that fall from the Cliffs of Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – That’s No Elf!

Flash Fiction Friday – Later

Flash Fiction Friday – Death Words

Today’s flash fic piece was based on a prompt from Seventh Sanctum! And yes, the title is a bad D&D pun. Death Words She was absolutely positive he would be speaking, and we all knew what that meant.

Flash Fiction Friday – Tropes in the snow
