Flash

Try to write something other than an e-mail in less than a thousand words.

Sad thing, my first flash fiction is now my novel “Hell to Pay”.

Now I’m looking at another piece called “Musings at the End of the World” and thinking about taking a break from my other projects (like their going furiously now) and undertaking a slackers story about finding out the moon is alive.

I got the idea from Michael Arnzen’s newsletter, the Goreletter. Check out his page of prompts.

I’ve never been a fan of timed writings or journaling (yeah, I’m blogging, what of it), but it does stimulate the cortex and makes me do other things.

Just a thought.
