I like your nice little stories. And with a good reading voice. I did some Flash Fiction Friday's years ago with a couple of friends. Maybe 150 stories, up on my blog. It was fun trying different prompts, and different styles of prompts. Sometimes a few would end up pointing to a possible expansion into a novel. I've always wanted to do podcasts of the old ones, plus start up again. Sites like yours are an inspiration. Here's my blog, but I'm liking SubStack too. https://www.flashfictionfriday.ca/

Thanks Mike 👍 I've found that a few of mine can be expanded on as well, or a character/event can be referenced in a longer story! You should start up again 😁

Thx - I found that sometimes for a prompt I would wonder how a previous group of characters would handle the situation. And a few of those connected stories then became a start for a novel - that was fun.

As for re-starting, I did publish two novels, have half a dozen in draft stages, and put lots of Flash Fiction online. But have stalled. When I wrote more I became pickier, self-editing what I was doing. I do miss writing, so am working on it.
