My love for short fiction has grown over the years. Brevity ain't easy, but to write in terms of the barest bones is both the ultimate challenge and the greatest reward. In order to push myself as a writer, I've decided to devote a post each week to flash fiction—the shortest of the shorts. So. Here's the very first Thursday Flash:
Blindness
Two starts and still no finish. He couldn't go on much longer. He'd managed to hold his agent at bay with a little piece about a blind veteran's slow plunge into madness. He called it Out of Sight, Out of Mind—but every time he saw the title page, he thought of his children. Where were they anyway? He hadn't seen them in years.
