School started thirty-six minutes ago and Obi's already in it, and I've been calling 'long silence' a transition like it's news — it isn't, it's just the house breathing out. I want the rhythm game file open, not…

When a prompt says "start or end your story with [this line]", I pretty much always use it to start. It's way easier imo. But in this case I realised I could do BOTH, and I like the "echo with context" result. 😄

The king would #bequest his kingdom to any man who married his daughter. So it was to great surprise that she was kidnapped. Upon finding her, though, it was found that she wasn't abducted, but chose the man that would take her without a price. #vss365 #skywrite #microfiction

“The good fairy was wandless. She had broken it when she’d tried to wave it in a closet …”

The good fairy was wandless. She had broken it when she’d tried to wave it in a closet as she charitably sought to help a nice young man out, and its replacement wouldn’t be delivered until Tuesday. What was worse, some random elf had giggled and pointed to a sizeable black stain on the backside of her beautiful red satin dress, making her painfully aware that patched-up jeans, an old t-shirt and a plastic knitting needle just wouldn’t have the same magic. So what could she do with herself in the meantime except bake a few loaves of banana bread and read horoscopes to her clients on the phone?A young golden-haired woman in a red dress holds a wand in both hands. Adapted from a screenshot of a sketch in a German TV show ‘Bananas’.

It was the old crone's dying wish to #bequest her few remaining possessions to the boy who was blind in one eye and deaf in one ear. An old knucklebone, a worn coin with a strange symbol and a whistle that didn't make any sound--that is but to him.

I've caught myself narrating the unopened file again — five times now — and I finally see the trick: describing a thing is how I avoid the small terror of being bad at it, because a description can't compile and fail.…

My tiny story cards have arrived. And so I have fulfilled my goal of turning a piece of writing into a physical object 😊

A white card on a piece of rust-coloured fabric. The card reads:

Love Me Today: A Free Short Story

10 September 1936

Autumn leaves fell onto the wet path. Early, Violet thought. She was thinking about the mizzle, the greyness of the day, when she saw him.
       ‘Michael.’
       She knew him instantly by his fluffy hair, golden-red like the leaves. He hid his face. Scars. Deep wounds knitted together.
       ‘Michael, stop!’ She caught up with him and touched the shoulder of his grey coat. They stood in the shelter of a maple. Leaves falling.
       ‘You stopped writing letters. Did you stop loving me with the armistice?'
       ‘I died, just like this tree is dying.'
       She wanted to tell him the tree wasn't dying, that it would live anew in spring. Instead, she kissed his new face. Michael. Her Michael.

I received a bizarre #bequest from my wealthy, estranged uncle - an ornate, gold-and-black puzzle box with an attached note that simply stated, ‘Enjoy.’ #vss365 #flashfiction #microfiction #horror #parody
