For a few years now I have occasionally posted my photos to Instagram but it wasn’t until I happened to trip across and follow the kickass account of Erin Hawkins, who endlessly marries cool photos with cool short fictional mini-stories that I realized much more fun could be had. So with thanks to her for inspiring me I’ve recently started copying this form (which I’ve since discovered is somewhat widely used, though little else I’ve seen in the realm of #flashfiction has been especially good, maybe why I avoid using that term) and thus I invite you – dear 4th reader of the month – to follow me on Instagram should you so desire. Here’s a pic of a recent post.
