A SMILE TODAY
I finished my short story today. Well, in reality it is more a flash fiction story, as it only consists of 643 words. It was a lot of fun to write, considering that it was my first attempt at a short story and it was my first time writing in the third person too, so I am very proud of myself. Though, it was a horror story. My paranormal romance stories tend to be a bit on the dark side anyway, so maybe I can play around between the two genres.

Hello friends. How are you today? I am so happy and grateful to be co-hosting IWSG today with my awesome co-hosts, Alexia Chamberlynn...
Doing well, here. Just getting ready for the American Thanksgiving holiday on Thursday.
ReplyDeleteThe difference between short stories and flash fiction is that FF has no plot, whereas a short story will, brief though it may be.
Well done with finishing the short story. Experiment with different genres and enjoy the experiences.
ReplyDeleteNancy - Good luck with the thanksgiving preperations. Thank you so much for the info.
ReplyDeleteCarole - Thank you so much! I definitely will.
I love writing flash fiction, but my word counts are getting steadily longer as I get older - maybe I'm just settling into this writing lark a bit more.
ReplyDeleteI've just finished a short story too - well, the first draft, which has lots of red pen all over it. Just about to make a start on the second draft.
Annalisa - That is fantastic! I still need to get to the red pen stage, but well done to you.
