Check out friend Stephanie’s new flash piece over at EDF. It is delightful! It’s even based on one of the prompts I provided a few months ago.
Update! It seems Steph isn’t the only one. Check out Virginia’s Six Sentence story here.
Every Day Fiction in it’s infinite wisdom has accepted a new flash piece from me entitled “The Squeeze.” It’s another light, humorous piece. They had me do some rewriting on it, and it came out much better afterward. It comes in under 300 words, but packs potent amusement (but probably only for certain demographics – we shall see)!
Thanks to Stephanie for helping me with a final tweak that was bothering me!
Expect to see it sometime in May, I would guess.
The good folks over at Every Day Fiction have created a new branch of their site, a blog for writers to write about writing. I offered up an article for today’s entry, so you can cruise over to there if you’d like.

If you have anything you’d like to say about writing, feel free to submit! They are voracious for content! And keep an eye on that space, I will likely have more to add there in the future.
Looks like some of my friends and family got around to checking out my little mystery story over at Every Day Fiction, because it has suddenly leapt into not one but two of the Top Stories categories there. They recently revised their Top Stories lists to cover only the Top 10, but in several different categories. “Crush” fell out, but “Aftershocks” has hopped up to the low tiers of their “Current” and “By Rating.” I’m trying to think of a way to get more quote marks in this paragraph, but I’m not sure it’s possible.
I have been quite lazy of late, but I will get back to work. New prompt contest this month, so maybe I’ll get something mildly interesting posted up here soon. I also still need to submit a couple of stories I have laying around. But it’s been at least a month since I wrote them, so now when I look at them I hate them. It’s hard to work up enthusiasm for stories when you do that.
