So far, 2015 has been full. Of surprises, of challenges, of revelations, of responsibilities. But I can see a bit of space opening up in the near future and I'm looking forward to getting my thoughts down more often. I'm happy to share this week's 99 word flash fiction challenge, Courtesy of Carrot Ranch Communications. Check out the contributions from the many talented Rough Writers.

My head hurts. The pressure has been
building for two days in advance of the storm that's moving our way. I want to
lie down. I want to get in the car and drive away. I want to forget the way he
left this morning. What he said. What I didn’t.
Instead, as the dark rumbles grow louder, I
move out to the porch to feel the wind. To watch it whip up leaves and the dirt
in ever expanding dervishes. To watch the chaos of rain and light that’s working
its way through me and into the sky.
