Flash Fiction

for the july flash fiction challenge

This for the Flash Fiction Groups first July challenge. Now, technically, the very last sentence was supposed to be the “lesson”. It isn’t in this story, but I think it is obvious what the “lesson” is, and I couldn’t see making this story work without the last line I have now.

This is for the second June challenge for the Flash Fiction group.

It took me a long time to learn this… / To err is human. To forgive, divine. For Flash Fiction’s June 2nd Challenge, Flare

This is for the June 2 Flash Fiction challenge – Fire and/or Gold.

Yeah – it’s krap with a ‘K’ on purpose. My entry for the Bulwar Lytton Flash Fiction contest. Don’t hate me for it.

I am NO writer – but my very good friend Miri is (and bloody good at it too). I love reading her stuff, and have been very amused by her entries into this challenge, so I thought I’d have a stab. Please don’t take it seriously – it’s supposed to be bad! Written for Flash Fiction’s June First Challenge Bulwer Lytton It was a dark and stormy night … / Basically, the competition challenges entrants to write the first paragraph of the worst novel ever told. The above line opens the 1830 novel by Edward George Bulwer-Lytton called Paul Clifford and although apparently it’s not a bad novel, the line has been so over-used over the years that it has become a painful cliche. This month’s first challenge is to have a go at a BL-esque opening paragraph – you don’t have to write the novel, just that all-important first few lines….

Take two! (this better not get to be a habit!!) / Is this better ie worse than Scent of Success?

A mini review for the Flash Fiction group challenge here. Wicked was a book I hadn’t come across prior to RB, and I enjoyed the read and the alternate view of Elphaba, despite its tragedy.

Nighttime is My Time, by Mary Higgins Clark. / For the July 2nd Challenge.

My entry for the 2nd July Challenge over at the Flash Fiction Group. This is a 150 word (approx) synopsis of a full review I’d written in January. If you would like to read it in its entirety, please visit my blog The Biblio Brat. (Clicking on the link will take you directly to my artcile.) I hope this interests you enough to read the book. Out of my entire library, there are several books I would definitely grab first if there were a fire – this is one of them.

This is for the July 2nd challenge. / Visit Lemony Snicket ’s website to read more. Or not. ( Don’t)

If only it was this easy…a bit of humour!

With tongue firmly in cheek, here is my entry to the Flash Fiction 2nd July Challenge.
