Warning: New Flash Fiction Blog

Even though I'm supposed to be cleaning out the car for our drive from Atlanta to Memphis tomorrow for Thanksgiving, I'm setting up a new blog for my flash fiction called Eye Blink Fiction at http://eyeblinkfiction.wordpress.com/

Why?

Laziness, for one thing. When I drink too much coffee, I write quasi-insane and randomly experimental short fiction. It stacks up in a Jim Beam box in the closet mainly because I find submitting it to small magazines really tedious and hard to keep track of for an unorganised person (like me).

Best thing I could think of was dumping it onto my own blog once in a while. Those who still remember the old writingup.com blog community will recognize the first short story: Mr. Déjà vu Upsets the Apple Cart.

Most of these stories will be under 1,000 words. They're created in the blink of an eye and then disappear. Stop by and take a look when time is short and you're procrastinating.

I enjoy short stories and like to both read and write them, but I'm sorry to say that flash fiction leaves me cold.

Some people's generalisations are other people's fancy. Not a problem. I don't read romance or detective stories even though I know I'm rejecting all of them out of hand even without looking at any of them. My vice. :-)
