My goodness, that Jason keeps busy!
Yep, I'll do it again. It was fun last time and I really enjoyed the feedback. Jer
Thanks for the mention, Anne! I have to say that excitement does seem to be mounting. Last contest had 41 entries. We'll see about this one.
sandra, i hear he never sleeps.
jer, can't wait to read your entry!
jason, i think the photo is especially haunting. it'll be interesting to see what people do with it.
i'm excited. i just have another 89 words to remove. i was at 409. i'm getting there.
Anne is a bad, bad person. Now I have gone and embarrassed myself and everything.
Gosh, last time I wrote fiction... I don't remember it being fun, like that. What happened?
Thank you, Anne & Jason. :)
emeraldcite: i loved your entry! great mood and description.
bekbek: really nice! i don't envy jason one bit. this will be tough.
it is fun, isn't it? i became addicted to flash fiction this winter. i thought i would need shock therapy to get over it.
thanks anne.
