Okay, this is funny. Funny! Listen to this.
Often, when I'm stuck, I read flash fiction written by others--for inspiration. One of my favourite on-line mags is elimae. So I open the latest issue and click on a random story. It's called Kalila, and it is by Sarah Joy Freese. First of all, I LOVED this flash. Second, this is the funny part. This is the quote from Kalila:
"When I get stuck, I read what others have written. Usually, I want to slit my wrists afterwards, but not in a suicidal kind of way. In this issue, there are interviews with Salman Rushdie (24), Nam Le (42), Kathryn Harrison (58), and Andrew Sean Greer (76). I am reading Slice."
Okay, back to writing.
