This flash fic piece was based on a prompt from Seventh Sanctum! Hope you enjoy it. Two years too far away The planet is my greatest betrayer. I have to see it that way, because the only other alternative is admitting that it’s my own body that is letting me down. With a life-expectancy of 87, I was supposed to Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Two years too far away
I didn’t get around to posting when I wrote it, but I finally got back to writing flash fic again! Yay! This piece is a bit random but here we are. Fancy Toes and Chilly Toes There are too many fancy coats downtown. Mia isn’t even really sure how she knows that the coats are fancy, she just knows. They’re Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Fancy Coats and Chilly Toes
I often have flashes of inspiration when I’m in a car. Maybe it’s just because I don’t ride in cars very often and that makes it a little bit of a liminal space for me, associated with holidays and family events. This idea came to me from a truly spectacular cloudscape I saw today. I hope you enjoy it. The Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Place in the Clouds
What’s this? Flash fiction Friday on a Monday? Preposterous! No but seriously, that’s just how it goes sometimes. I wanted to write this on Friday after finishing my play-through of an absolutely gorgeous game called Fated, where you move through a story with (and date) Shakespeare characters. Well, sort of. If you like visual novels or dating games, I very Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Amends

It was a “know it when I see it” kind of situation, Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Unreality
This little snippet isn’t based on a dream, but it’s sort of a prequel of a story I want to write based on a dream. I hope you enjoy it! Practice makes Plummet I finish another set of breathing exercises and drink a small glass of water with a few drops of that tincture the Ambassador gave me to keep Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Practice makes Plummet
Just a little thing based on a dream 🙂 Hope you enjoy it! An excess of ranch The first few time it had happened, I didn’t even really notice. I mean, it’s hardly unheard of, waking up in the morning and realizing that you had a packet of milk left after all, even though you thought you were out. If Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – An excess of ranch
Excuse the blithe title, I couldn’t think of what else to call it. Just a little snippet, plucked right out of my day. Maybe not a story as such but oh well. Enjoy! Slice of Pandemic Life “Whole family went in,” the man in front of me says, nodding toward the tent. He holds his palm up to me. “Five Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Slice of Pandemic Life
I feel like I haven’t written flash fic in about three years. But I’m back! Wooh! Today’s piece is a bit macabre, and inspired by the creepy basement under my parents’ summer home that a small part of my brain is always worried about falling into. Loneliness and Hatches They all said that it was loneliness and isolation that killed Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Loneliness and Hatches
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
