Update
Sorry I dropped off the edge of the earth for a while! After finally getting "Bedtime Story" posted and rushing to make a flash-fiction deadline, I didn't have much energy for writing/posting. It didn't help that I went on vacation and didn't have as much free time as I expected. I could barely keep up with reading, much less do any writing! (The last couple of years, I've nearly been bored while on vacation. This time, I borrowed my sweetie's laptop and had Plans, so of course, I didn't have nearly as much free time.)
Anyway, I managed to get a story finished for the "cold" flash-fiction challenge. (Barely -- I lost track of time and almost didn't get it posted by the deadline. Fortunately, it was at the final-tweaking stage!) I've got another one that's finally gelling, plus a few bunnies that are getting sulky because their stories are neglected. I'll post "personal" copies of the flash-fiction stories with links in a couple of communities soon.
My lack of energy for writing has extended to writing comments, so I'm also going to try to give well-deserved kudos to some of the many talented authors out there. Maybe if I intersperse that with reading and writing, I'll feel like I might get caught up eventually. (Sleep is overrated, right?)
