I’m so excited to announce that my micro, “Midway,” was shortlisted for the Brilliant Flash Fiction contest and is published online!

Read it here, along with the other fantastic shortlisted stories and, of course, the contest winners!

This is the image that inspired the piece, written in a Sarah Freligh workshop. The prompt was to use an image to find “the poetry of prose,” and something about this photograph my paternal grandfather took at the 1939 Worlds Fair in New York was like a lightning strike. I wrote about it soon after the workshop (Bolt of Inspiration), and this honor of being shortlisted for a contest gives me fresh inspiration to work on the project mentioned in that blog post.
