Do you know how many free or cheap pleasures you can find out there? IF you can read electronic texts in one way or the other. (If you are reading this, you probably can).
I downloaded a great selection of free flash fiction the other day: “Flash Fiction for the Cocktail Hour” – eleven well-written stories full of intriguing characters – written by American Cathryn Grant.
As I am going to use this collection for my Danish challenge (short story month), I´ll bring a couple of delicious quotations over the month.
A Thousand and One Bottles of Wine.
“She plucked at the spandex that clung to her legs like cobwebs. She wasn´t sure if the tight fabric looked good because it showed how slim she was, or looked bad because it left nothing to the imagination.”
Things change in Corrine´s life, and she decides it´s a good opportunity to think of her life style. Read the story to see how this attempt turns out. And you know what: you can download the whole collection from Smashwords – absolutely free of charge. But don´t come back to blame me if you develop an addiction to Cathryn´s stories! I read one, and I have followed her blog ever since.
Tomorrow: come back to see how you can win Cathryn´s brand-new novel, The Demice of the Soccer Moms, or even a Kindle for one, very lucky winner.
Finally, a quotation from my latest flash story, Hand in Glove.
She found the other glove under a woodpile, and it all came back.
“Your mother loved you, sweetheart. She went up to your room and kissed you goodbye before she left,” her father had assured her.
