First Impressions: Limbo

[BErixson]

Yikes.

First impressions.

The image seems to fit with what is somehow a consistent thread in my writing. Dark, hazy, and a bit creepy. Initially I was going to sit and cheer from the sidelines until I saw the image, and it reminded me of Andrew Wyeth?s Christina?s World. A painting I see with each visit to my uncle?s house and his daughter?s house. The image itself has a haunting tone with a golden glow and haunting tone.

From there, my writing ended up in free form. I?ve been beta reading a number of SFF and Fantasy lately and wanted to take a stab at prose outside my comfort zone. My normal writing is a bit tighter and punchier. But this is what all this is for right? Experimenting and practicing to see what fits and what works.

I wish I could say I had any formal process other than to just start writing.

Thank you for letting me experiment and join.

Yesss!

Sounds like you found a ton of inspiration, and I love that you're experimenting outside your comfort zone. This is the perfect place to do it, too!

I've found flash fiction is perfect for stepping outside of my comfort zone; hope you find the same

Thank you K.J. and LogThatData!

I can say the story morphed three times before it began to settle. I'm sure it will morph a few more times before week five is up.

I love that you're going in a new direction, and even more that you dragged a friend along for the ride! Super glad you jumped in to join us!
