Scared yet determined, I walked to the nearest phone booth and called my secret boyfriend. “Can you please pick me up?” Grateful that he was older than me, had a car and license.—RUNAWAY by @twitnikki Editor's Pick Fall Contest 2023 in case you missed it fiveminutelit.com/runaway

New Flash by @lesliewtrahan "She’s seventeen years old and standing at a bus stop in East Texas. It’s raining, and her hair is pulled into a ponytail. She’s wearing a backpack, and on the bench beside her is a green duffel bag with a broken strap." fracturedlit.com/two-coins/

Mum slipped brandy in her morning tea; cooked weird foreign foods; friended eccentrics, artists, anyone psychologically unstable; read widely, was opinionated, witty, ofttimes acerbic. Tramps, she told me, had character. #30words30days #microfiction #prompt Character

Mrs Francis examined the fine lines in her precious bone china. Both shared the same characteristics: hard, cold, compromised, beautiful. Her girls inherited all the pretty pieces, her damage too. #bones #character #30words30days

A bit behind so I tried to smash out a little story with two words. Hope ‘bone’ instead of ‘bones’ is ok 😬

Her evening followed a familiar pattern. He’d slug whisky; she’d gather wool. He’d needle her; she’d knit her brows. He’d start a row; she’d unravel. Someday she’d cast him off. #30words30days #pattern

Beneath bone crust and blood earth, something great was here. As shells recall their swirling seas, there is memory here.  Megalodon Ribbons and roads of seagrass Its salty sting proof. #30words30days #desert
