Sooooooo this one is a solid like...100 words over where the TTH prompt wanted me but I GOT CARRIED AWAY I'M SORRY. I'm still really pleased with this, though, and it's started to give me some ideas for a book I've been wanting to write for years now. I'll let you be the judge of … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Thimbleful Thursday – Labor of Love
Tag: Fiction Friday
These two went together too well, so I had to put them together. (Sorry Lyn, I'm bending your rules!) One had a 100 word limit and the other 200, so my goal is to stay within 10% of 300 words. Here goes! This is in the world of OFF THE RECORD, probably pretty late in … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Thimbleful – Keep at Arm’s Length/Just For the Record
These two were short (200 and 300) prompts, so I figured I'd mush them together! Again, these are taken from the Thimbleful Thursday page, run by my dear friend and beloved author Lyn Thorne-Alder, who I heartily recommend you check out. (Both her stuff, and of course the TTH page. Because it's fun! And good. … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Thimbleful – Have a Blast/Rose Colored Glasses
Literally had never heard the turn of phrase that way, but a quick Wiki search tells me it's another form of "highway robbery"! Neato. So today I'm delving back into one of my few published worlds, because I miss these characters and they deserve more page time. Soren Avalon, digital supervillain, and his significant other, … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Thimbleful – Daylight Robbery
Apologies if this is choppy and not as up to par as usual. Part of that is the emotion of the scene, I think, making Alistair's narrative less flowing for me than it usually is. He wasn't good about keeping focus. The other part is that while I was writing, the website I was using … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: St. Patrick’s Day
Another Thimbleful Thursday post for you! This was meant to be between 450-550 words, and it's just over (sorry, Lyn) but it just grabbed me and wouldn't let go. This is a very very very far sequel-ish to QUEST TO KARANTIRI. We've met Kelina, the princess of the Metadrine elves before. The young man she's … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Thimbleful-Iron Out the Difficulty
So my good friend Lyn Thorne-Alder (you've seen this name before, I promise) runs a nifty little running blog-thing called Thimbleful Thursday. She posts an idiom (at least usually, I'm not sure if she's using other things yet or not) and then a projected word count. These are flash fiction levels of words, so I … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Thimbleful–Shadow of a Doubt
I've been toying with this idea for a little while, essentially since someone from my past had a whole faux conversation with me about how this might happen and why. I don't remember most (if really any) of our original conversation, and unlike most other correspondence with my friends, this actually happened aloud, so it's … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Origin Story
So I'm a little early for Valentine's day, but the post you'll read on Monday got me inspired, so here's a little FF treat for you. It's the same characters as from the romance chapter from last Friday, just at a different point in their lives. I'm a sucker for an HEA, so I doubt … Continue reading Fiction Friday: Even Broken Hearts
