Friday Flash Fiction

What’s it all about then?

Just a bit of fun really. The talented science fiction writer Gareth Lyn Powell (GLP) came up with the idea and a bunch of us, not above jumping on a well crafted bandwagon, joined in. The idea is to post a piece of free flash fiction every Friday.

For me it’s a way of ensuring I write every week. You can read some of GLP’s thoughts on Friday Flash Fiction and other matters over at SciFi.uk.com

I sort of liked this the idea s that went into the plot were very good. I liked the mage and I liked his atitude. I just thought your warrior was kind of flat. He made it this far but it seems with guile or cunning. He could have used a little of both, however, entertaining

Thanks Kirby Ann. And well spotted, this is of course as a result of my using a time machine in order to fit my last few FFF entries in…honest :)

Fixing it now.
