fff | But I Smile Anyway...

Matt is a naughty boy! He knows how I love to use words to add into my story when he gives us his Flash Fiction Foray inspiration… But he has chosen an instrumental this week! Check it out Here – Appassionata Secret Garden

She slowly opened the rusty lock, on the old wooden door. It creaked, as she pushed the door open. Taking a deep breath, she stepped forward and raised her eyes. There it was. Looking as amazing as it had all those years ago. Sure, the flower beds were overgrown with weeds, the path no longer clear to walk along, but she could see it. The bench stood there, surrounded by beautiful wild rose bushes. She slowly took frail steps to the bench, felt the wind-worn wood and sank down. “My secret garden,” she whispered, then closed her eyes… forever….

Not sure… What do you think…?

Oh you know I love this challenge!
It’s Flash Fiction Foray time!
Matt , The Book Blogger, has a weekly challenge, where he gives us a song prompt, to write a 100 word Flash Fiction piece…
This week, the inspiration comes from the song “Feeling Good” by many artists, over the years, but personally, for me, it has to be Nina Simone!

Read more about the challenge here.

Selfie Culture

She peeled herself of the floor.

It had been an exhausting day, and to top it off, this session was, well, the icing on the cake… Gulping half her bottle of water down, she wiped the sweat from her brow, and turned to look at herself in the mirror… Sucking her breath in, and holding her stomach tight, she looked pretty thin. She quickly got out her phone, it was never far away, and pouted as she quickly took a selfie.

Instagram, Twitter, Facebook. Yup it was uploaded everywhere.

10 minutes later, 136 likes already! Yeah… she was feeling good!

Done! Hope you like it Matt!
