A<\/span>re you ready for the latest installment of the ongoing photo-fiction game that Christine Hennebury and I have been playing? Each week, I take a photo and send it to her, and she uses it as inspiration for a piece of flash fiction. We’re enjoying it so much that we’re inviting others to play along too – see details below.<\/p>\n

But first, this week’s story!<\/p>\n

\"Photo<\/p>\n

Perspective<\/strong><\/p>\n

I probably shouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have agreed to read her book. <\/p>\n

And I definitely shouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have told her that the part I did read was awful. <\/p>\n

Meeting her in that dark parking lot to return the manuscript was not my brightest moment, and turning my back on her was a monumental mistake.<\/p>\n

As she hit me on the head with that shovel, I thought \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcThis is the worst thing that has ever happened to me.\u00e2\u20ac\u2122<\/p>\n

I woke in the barn, sneezing and sniffling, surrounded by hay, my shoulders aching from the way my hands were tied behind me, and I thought \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcNo, THIS is the worst thing that has ever happened to me.\u00e2\u20ac\u2122<\/p>\n

Then, when she came in wearing that robe, carrying the book, it seemed she was going to read more of her so-called novel to me, and I thought, <\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcOh, no, THIS is the worst thing that has ever happened to me.\u00e2\u20ac\u2122<\/p>\n

I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even cover my ears.<\/p>\n

When her gibberish turned out to be a spell, it was a kind of relief, really. <\/p>\n
