I’m on vacation! I still have some work stuff I need to finish this weekend, but I’m officially out of the office until January 11th which feels awesome! Today I’ve had a slow day, bit hungover after an office X-mas party that turned into bar hopping. Had a great time! Tonight I’ve reached into my trusty Dixit deck for some writing Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Resignation
Flash Fiction Friday is back, yay! A soft start this time, not a prompt but just a… piece. Tomorrow I’m helping mom at a Christmas market, and thinking of that made me think of a lady I’ve seen at that market who looked like she was going through some rought times but, last year, seemed much improved. I’m not happy Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Improvements
It’s a miracle! A piece of flash fiction whose title isn’t a definite noun. Bet you didn’t expect that to happen, huh? This time, the title is an adjective. Yay, adjectives! Here’s the picture: Hopeful She loves me. I just know it! Every night I fly by her house at the same time, and every night she comes out, just Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Hopeful
I had never really noticed this card before I pulled it out of my Dixit-game tonight. Isn’t it delightful? All credit to Dixit and their fantastic illustrators, as usual. The Terranaut Telq pushed himself, and his bulky suit, the last little distance out of the water. As he sat up and looked around, he was taken aback by the lack Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Terranaut
I almost forgot it was Friday! I’m already in bed and don’t feel like getting back up, but I still want to do my flash fiction piece. So I pressed the “random article” button on Wikipedia a few times until one, an article about a cyclist, gave me an idea. Here goes nothing: The Chain The bike had been good Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Chain
I almost forgot it’s Friday! But then I remembered, so here is some sleepy flash fiction for you all! Here’s tonight’s Dixit card: Cool, no? I’ve always liked this card. Credits to Dixit’s illustrators as usual. Here’s the piece: The Devil in the Dice The dialog box flashed on the screen. “Double bet to $500?” it said and, below, the Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Devil in the Dice
Wow, for once I’m aware of what day of the week it is and at my computer and not too sleepy to blog. I feel like I’ve been missing my scheduled posts a lot lately, especially on Wednesdays but also on Fridays. But maybe I haven’t. To be honest, it feels like this week has been three weeks long so maybe that’s why I Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Breakup
Today I’m in Gothenburg, which means I’m away from my trusty Dixit cards so I won’t be doing an image prompt. Actually, I won’t be doing a prompt at all. My head is full of magic. I am currently reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in Arabic (a marvelous experience I will eventually blog about) and this has brought Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Almost not flash
Last week I was crazy tired. I’m not sure why, maybe I’m still just adjusting to being back at work, but blogging in the evenings was just not a thing that was happening at all! So since I missed Worldbuilding Wednesday and Flash Fiction Friday, I’m doing a special post today combining them. Yay! This week I finished the paper Continue reading Sunday Double Whammy! Worldbuilding + Flash Fiction
Once again, I almost forgot it was Friday. I think I should get into the habit of picking my prompt card earlier in the day, so I’m not always doing these pieces just before bed. Oh well, next week maybe… Here is today’s card. As usual, all credit to the awesome Dixit illustrators: The Pillars As the pillars sank into Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Pillars
