Stranded – no place to run

These infernal crop dusters won’t leave me in peace.

How am to do my job if they won’t leave me alone??

Where is a pest to roam?


This flash fiction is the “answer” to my Friday Flash Fiction. If you get a chance, read the full sequence. Thanks to Monkey Man who each week gives us the opportunity to hang out at his place and write fiction in 160 characters – it can be done!

The Message is Gone – Flash fiction

He carefully forms his message in the sand

Shells in a heart shape emphasizing

Love ~ devotion

An unexpected wave crashes

Everything at that moment for her is

GONE

 

Each week Monkey Man hosts flash fiction in 160 characters. Like writing a tweet – it takes some doing to convey thought in so few words. Come join the fun!

A Welcome to the New Year in 160 characters #flashfiction

She opened one eye then another
A twitch
Hmm do I venture out from warmth?
Peering out from under her arm
She stretches
Then moves in her cat-like manner
Welcomes the New Year

Honey Where Are You? (Flash Fiction#Alzheimers)

I looked today

turned around

What did you say

Did you make a sound

“Honey I love you”

I heard her say

With all we’d been through

My memories at times seem so far away

************************************

After speaking with a dear friend whose wife is captive in Alzheimer’s, I was inspired to write this Fiction for him, for her

Thanks to Monkey Man who weekly hosts our flash fiction in 160.  Amazing what people can do with a few words. Join us

160 running away

I had a story in my head

I was finishing the last chapter

When it jumped out!

I watched as my 300 page novel

began to run down the road

“Wait I haven’t finished the …”

Aren’t 160 character stories fun? I actually had my 160 in my head and before I could jot it down it escaped and left me with this. Please join Monkey Man as he encourages us to write Micro Fiction
