55 Flash Fiction Friday

Well, it's Friday, had you noticed? There some exciting things round these parts but I shall wait to share those details till later. For now, I'll just point out that Fridays are a great time to write flash fiction, and if you do, there are other people who want to know about it! You can hook up with them over HERE.



My flash fiction:





Ice tinged wind scrapes my face, a fitting herald. Once inside, empty eyes and cold smiles top prim versions of the latest fashions. The woman who’s undoubtedly been assigned to welcome newcomers approaches. My replies to her small talk questions become progressive more outrageous till her facade cracks into a genuine smile. Perhaps there’s hope.
