What it’s all about: Five Sentence Fiction is about packing a powerful punch in a tiny fist. Each week Lillie Mcferrin posts a one word inspiration, then anyone wishing to participate will write a five sentence story based on the prompt word. This week’s word: MEMORIES.
Memories of her filled his mind to overflowing.
He set to work to free up some space, mining them from everywhere, even the remotest and darkest corners of his mind, putting them neatly in envelopes, and shipping them over to her.
When they were delivered at her doorstep, she counted six envelopes in all; one was missing.
She sent them all back, unopened.
All or nothing had always been her way.
