>>Nostalgia For Infinity

Here’s this week’s flash fiction. Unfortunately this one is a bit of rush job, which is a shame as the idea is more promising than what I’ve done with it. The story began as an attempt to engage with this post and subsequent discussion. I suspect I may have been too literal and drifted off course but, well, I’ll let the story speak for itself.

Since I missed out on the theme the week before last, I decided that my story this week should fit the bill. Better late than never, after all, and I am fairly good at being late.

I missed out on the flash party last Friday, but here’s a story I’ve been working on all week that I think quite fondly of. Hope you like it as well.

(Note: I’ve just found out that the FFFFacebook group has been used to establish the theme for this week, and because I’ve not checked my bookface in a while I didn’t know about this. Whoops. Sorry guys.)

No Friday Flash Fiction from me this week – sorry all. I had nothing new written and didn’t, at the time, have access to any old material to use as a placeholder. It seemed sensible to skip a week instead.

However, I am happy to write that my meatspace friend (and fellow Brighton NaNoWriMo participant) Justin Pickard has joined in this week with a fantastic piece of near-future SF titled ‘Patterns in Traffic’. He says he’s not going to be doing it every week, but as I’ve just demonstrated intermittent efforts are not unknown. Still, on the strength of this offering, I’m hoping Justin joins us more often.

The rest of this week’s stories:

• Gareth L. Powell: ‘My New Eyes’
• Paul Raven: ‘The Age of Aquarius’
• Martin McGrath: ‘The Messnger’
• Neil Beynon: ‘Bends’
• Gareth D. Jones: ‘Swarm’
