I attended a small con in November 2019 and had a chance to read some of my flash pieces to a group of fellow writers.
I told them prior to the reading, “This will be your chance to tell a fellow author, ‘My god, that sucks!’ and get away with it because I really want to know if I have any skill or if I’m fooling myself.”
Seven folks showed up to let me know if I sucked.
I read Sanctuary, It’s a Man’s World, Grafton’s Ghost Child, Owen and Jessica, Lessons Learned, and O’ Happy Day.
You can read the story along with my narration here.
Evidently my work doesn’t suck.
Enjoy (and leave a comment. I love comments).
By the way, this work was recently rejected by a magazine. I give their reason after the narration.
