Earlier tonight I played an absolutely adorable game for my Thank Gods It’s Indie stream. It was called “Corinne Cross’s Dead & Breakfast“, made by Bad Chalk Games, and is a girl who is put in charge of a haunted B&B. I had a great time playing it! The story was very heartwarming and the art was great, and I Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The New Guest
I felt like poking this idea from last week a bit more tonight, so here we are. Not as strong, I think, but I’m still enjoying dipping my toes into this character and seeing what I find. Not totally sure where this is going but we’ll see. Hunter pt. 2 I get to the village just before sundown. Village is Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Hunter pt. 2
I used a prompt generator, a Discord bot called Writer-Bot, for my prompt tonight. The line was “I had never woken up in the middle of an impact crater before”. I changed it to present tense, and am pretty happy with the results. Enjoy! Hunter I have never woken up in the middle of an impact crater before. All told, Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Hunter
Last weekend for my new Solo Storytelling Sunday stream (every 2 Sundays at 10 am CEST, be there!), I played a game called Superhuman Industrial and Immaterial, Incorporated. It was a ton of fun and I’m definitely playing it again some day. I really liked the little story I wrote while playing, to such a degree that I’m considering writing Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Tech Difficulties
It’s Friday! Happy Friday! I actually have flash fiction today. As so often, this one is based on a prompt. Today’s prompt came from Writer-Bot, a Discord utility bot I use that has prompts and other stuff, and it was the following: ” A soldier has to rethink their strategy after a spelling error proves it wasn’t a dragoon terrorising Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – One O Too Many
I was listening to a podcast episode recently that talked about the urban legend of black-eyed kids and it gave me some ideas, one of which was the below. Enjoy! Little Stars “About fucking time!” Elle hissed as Tam slipped in through the door and closed it behind them with their hip. “What took you so long?” Lou asked, a Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Little Stars
Just a little something I threw together because I was thinking about how rarely we get portal fantasies and other real-world adjacent fantasy stories with adult protagonists. Hope you like it! Inciting Incident It wasn’t the lemon curd that was the problem. Lydia was like 98% sure of that At first she’d thought it was too sweet, then that it Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Inciting Incident
Presented without comment: Someday I imagine there’ll be sun spilling in through the window, painting golden streaks across the bedspread and the pillows that trail all the way to the door. I imagine there’s birdsong coming in through a slightly opened window. I imagine I’ve been up for a little while, sipping tea out of one of their mugs and Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Someday
Tonight’s flash fiction is unusually short for being me, and the idea came from an episode of Clear Skies (a totally rad Star Trek rpg that you should totally watch). Hope you enjoy it! Lucid Dreaming She was having the dream again. The landscape was a mess of roiling, twisted shapes, painted in putrid colors. Distant screeches tore at her Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Lucid Dreaming
Tonight’s Flash Fiction Friday is inspired by the following prompt from the writing bot on my Discord: [268] Whenever you speak, people hear you speaking in their native language. Most people are surprised and delighted. The cashier at McDonalds you’ve just talked to is horrified. “Nobody’s spoken that language in thousands of years.” I didn’t quite play it straight, instead Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Confession
