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. A few years ago, we might have debated the issue, might’ve doubted what she said but by now everybody knew that Aunt Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Death Words
I don’t know quite where this one came from, it just did. Enjoy! The Ground Where She Used To Walk “So…” I say as we step further into the orchard, where the branches of the apple trees are bent low with fruit not quite yet ready for picking. “When are you going to tell Grandmother?” Lia doesn’t answer me right Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Ground Where She Used To Walk
I’ve been reading through my next big WIP this week, and gods am I excited to be working on it. It’s gonna be so good! Eventually… In the mean time, here’s a little snippet of an unnamed side-character. She might not even turn up in the book, to be honest. I mostly wanted to explore this particular part of the Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Wall-runner
For Thank Gods Its Indie this afternoon, I played a lovely little game called Speed Dating for Ghosts by Copychaser games and Laundry Bear. It was really enjoyable and unique, and thematically it reminded me a bit of Corinne Cross’s Dead & Breakfast which I played a while ago, even if Speed Dating has maybe a bit of a darker Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Good Morning, Gary
Another Friday, another snippet based on a dream. The title makes little sense, to be honest, but I didn’t know what else to name it. Enjoy! Souvenirs “Auntie!” I catch them as they’re leaving the house, a whole clutch of young cousins and second cousins rotating around my aunt Pam and her friend Mary from next door who won’t let Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Souvenirs
Sometimes I just feel like having a poke at some D&D tropes, so here we are: Tropes in the snow “Bard!” the barbarian roared as the opening bars of the same song rang out from the lute for the fifth time that day. “You play that song one more time and I will smash your face into my ax.” The Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Tropes in the snow
I don’t know y’all. It’s a cow. It’s cute. That’s all I’ve got. Chibi Cow The cow, as it turned out, was the least of Lacey’s problems. When she’d come home from work that Tuesday and found it on her front steps, she’d been rather stressed about it, but as the days slunk past the stress of suddenly having a Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Chibi Cow
The last two Sundays, I’ve spent my Solo Storytelling Sunday stream playing a wonderful map-making rpg called Lost in the Grey (by Mnemonic). I’ve had a ton of fun with it, and I have gotten quite fond of the story I’ve created through it – to the point where I might turn it into a book eventually. The story isn’t Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Return
A silly little piece based on a dream I had last night. I’m not sure it was actually a cute dress, but I sure thoughts so in the dream! Anyway, enjoy! Weresnakes and Pinefores “Oh hey, there’s that dress we were looking at the other day.” Belinda stopped, catching Rim by the arm to stop her too, and pointing at Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Weresnakes and Pinefores
It’s not terribly uncommon for me to write flash fic based on my own dreams but today I’m coming at you with a twist – flash fic based on my spouse’s dream. A silly piece that I hope you enjoy! Is this your wormling? Amir was enjoying his entree and the fact that all of the people sitting near him Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Is this your wormling?
