Flash Fiction / Six Word Memoir

Very vivid imagery created with so little wording. Makes me think of standing in a darkened house, looking out the frosted window into the cold  night watching a hearse slowly drive by. Is that the image you were looking to create in the readers mind?

Does this describe your whole life? Or just a sad part of it? This may be too specific a part of your life to make the book.

As a memoir, this piece covers a brief period that can be tapped to develop creative scenes and character arcs. I’m glad it made an impression on you. Thanks.

The place you live, geographically can have a great impact on how we think & feel. Black inside maybe inner silence, which is nice if you’re not afraid of the dark. Try to live in the present if you can, no regrets.
cheers, Lin

I try not to dwell on regrets. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t there, and I lean on my own experience with gloom liberally when the mood is appropriate for scenes about unhappy people. Best regards, Steve.

While this is on the dark side, I believe it will create curiosity enough for the reader to continue.
