“Hurry up! It’s time to go!” a distant voice echoes through the chamber. In the back of the cavernous room, I hear thundering footsteps approach the entreating entrance to the inner door. Piercing torchlights tear through my cheek. None can resist the darkness in the enchanted desert land.

Congratulations Oscar for being the winner! I am so glad that you took part in this week's challenge. I really enjoyed your Flash Fiction piece especially the part where you said, "The main mast bends in half and the hull cripples away, dissipating into dust." I could actually visualize it as I was reading. Great use of imagery and zesty language! Looking forward to reading more of your amazing writing! Leave a Reply. |
