Fun with Flash Fiction

Image
The amazingly talented and super kind Nina D'Arcangela has been doing a flash fiction project that has helped feed my fun in writing. She sends an image and we write a piece of flash inspired by the picture. I've really been enjoying it. I've been inspired to use this sort of flash on rough days to get my creativity flowing again. If I'm feeling blocked I'll find an image that sparks something in me and write a short 300-500 words just to get the mojo flowing. (Bless you, Nina!) Below is the image I used today and the story I created from it. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. This is Michigan Central Station in Detroit Ghostly Passengers Jaime Johnesee The dilapidated halls echo in disconcerting ways and as I move through the ruins of the once grand Michigan Central Station I can almost hear the whispers of boarding calls from days long past.  A rat or cat, I can't tell which, runs by, startled by my presence.
