Rochelle Wisoff-Fields-Addicted to Purple hosts the flash fiction challenge called
Friday Fictioneers!
Take the challenge to write a piece of flash fiction in 100 words using the weekly picture prompt.
“Dad! Where are you?” I call through the house.
Simultaneously feeling chilled, by a draught even though the window is shut.
I’m motionless, caught in stride. Not believing the image I see.
A shadow of an old man.
My chest tight, my breath visible in the summer heat.
Tightness wrapping around my body and squeezing the air out my lungs.
But no one is there.
Just a darkness.
“There you are! Look, Claire! Found at the building site! I bet they hold some history!” Dad stands in front of me looking at his feet.
Walking in a dead man’s shoes!
Genre – Horror (100 words)

Thank you so much Keith! I like to experiment with genre when I write flash fiction!
Although I’m currently writing my first novel which is a psychological thriller!

Those shoes will indeed have some history and I’m guessing the tale is only going to get worse with the telling. Well written.
