Microfiction Monday (4)

Microfiction Monday is hosted by Susan on Stony River

This week's Microfiction Monday will be different. Instead of something creative made up on the spot, you have a brief two sentences from my current short story entitled Dream Giver --- about a woman named Trisha who is drawn to a psychic in a coma through dreams. The sentences come from the opening dream sequence.

Sterile white doors lined the walls. Even though my feet propelled me forward, I didn’t move an inch
My crusader challenge will be up shortly. Eventually. By Friday. Maybe. These next two weeks will involve me doing the following (on top of regular homework):
- finalizing submission for Illuminations
- finalizing submissions to Madison Lit Fest
- debate about submitting to the Kenyon Review
- create a rough draft for a storyboard (for class)
- write 8-10 pages analyzing Iron Man (for a different class)

Here, have a video to entertain yourselves. Taken from John Scalzi's blog.

Microfiction Monday (2)

Microfiction Monday is hosted by Susan over on Stony River. She features a picture and fellow bloggers have to write a microfiction 140 characters or less. For those not in the know, 140 characters is the max amount of characters for one tweet on Twitter. Feel free to check out her blog and join in the weekly fun.



The clock on Main Street wondered how long it would take for passersby to notice it stopped working before realizing that it can no longer keep track of time.

Microfiction Monday (1)

Susan Carleton hosts something called Microfiction Mondays. A picture is given and you must write a story for it in 140 characters or less. This is my first time participating; we'll see if this becomes a regular thing here in my Chair.
