Open Doors and A Hot Flash #ThursdayDoors #vss #FlashFiction

Today’s the first of the month — seems like forever! — and I have a new Hot Flash on my Hot Flashes page. A Hot Flash is what I can my micro-mini stories of 50 words or fewer.

It’s also Thursday Doors, the brain child of Norm Frampton. Visit Norm’s page, view his wonderful photographs, and click on the blue frog link at the bottom of his Thursday Doors post. It will take you to a list of other Thursday Doors posts. Add your own and/or explore others.

Here are my doors this week,from a friend’s back yard. TheΒ doors are all open, so I guess this is Thursday Doorways, but whatever. The shed door is open because a stray cat had kittens in it and she needs to get in and out. Attempts are underway to tame her so she can be fixed. One of the kittens is a tortoiseshell. If it’s a male, I’ve got dibs. Yes, I know they’re rare, but SAGE.

ANYWAY, here are the doors:

A WRITING PROMPT FOR YOU: Write about a door or doors.

About

I was born in Louisville, Kentucky, but now live in the woods in southern Indiana. Though I only write fiction, I love to read non-fiction. The more I learn about this world, the more fantastic I see it is.

    I’m OK with just one door and for it to be open. I feel like I have to ask, did Tipper approve of your claiming dibs on a new kitty? I suspect we will hear from him at some point in the future.

      He doesn’t know. The chances of a tortoiseshell being male is about one in 30,000, so I seriously doubt the question will ever come up. πŸ™‚

    An open door is still a door πŸ˜‰
    Hey! What, no pics of the kittens or are they just too young yet?

      They’re feral, Norm, so I didn’t want to intrude on their safe place to get a picture, and the interior of the shed was too dark to take a picture from the brightness outside and crop in. We could catch glimpses of them now and then, but just an ear or a romping rump; nothing large enough or indentifiable enough — or motionless enough — to be worth trying to snap.

    As you know, I was a bit door poor today, so I enjoyed the stone and the scenery of yours. I refuse to write about a door today, but I will write about doors every Thursday until a time to be determined.

      You refuse to write about a door? That sounds like a deliberate strike. I hope you haven’t been insulted or injured by a door today. Or, you know, any day. hugs!
