Alice’s Cousin (Flash Fiction)
This came from an Instagram prompt, which gave me all the Alice in Wonderland vibes! What do you think Alice did to make her cousin chase after her? To read more stories that are also from the same prompt, head to Instagram and follow the #writerstowriterschallenge hashtag. You’d think that by now I’d be used…

The Only Goodbye (Flash Fiction)
You may have noticed that I’ve missed a couple of weeks of posts, and I’m here to say I’m back. Nearly two weeks ago, I suffered a miscarriage and I took a small hiatus from social media. This flash fic is the first thing I’ve written since. It was based on a prompt via Instagram…

Kiera’s Storm (Flash Fiction)
Another flash fiction Friday! The prompt came again from an Instagram challenge, this time the goal was that severe weather was to significantly impact the story. This story is actually a situation that would give me nightmares, but there’s a happy ending, so I just have to remind myself of that! There’s a heartbeat of…
