Better late than never! As I am recovering from frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis for you medical geeks), it’s been difficult to do much typing.
But my trusty band of authors still wrote flash fiction for July and August. Thanks, you wonderful humans!
July’s entries
For July, I drew these cards: king of spades, 4 of hearts, and the queen of diamonds. That meant the genre was epistolary (letter exchanging), the setting was a car dealership, and the object that must appear in the story was a brick! (Oh, I totally forgot I wrote for July, too!)
And here are the stories from our authors. Thanks so much for playing!
- Iara Warriorfeather wrote Building Things One Brick at a Time
- Jeff Baker wrote Hunting the Snark in a Car Lot With a Brick
- Bruce Gordon wrote A Brick in the Hand is Worth Two in the Trunk
- Kimberhew (Welcome!) wrote Therapy, A Short Story
- and I wrote A Brick in the Bug
August entries
For August, I drew these cards: 4 of spades, ace of hearts, and the ace of diamonds. That meant the genre was horror, the setting was a bakery, and the object that must appear in the story was a spoon!
And here are the stories from our authors. Thanks so much for playing!
- Iara Warriorfeather wrote Cat and Mouse
- Jeff Baker wrote Night of the Risen Dough
- EH Timms wrote Run, Run, As Fast As You Can
The next draw is on September 7, 2020!
Hope you can join us! I hope to write again for next month, too!
Cheers!
