Gillian Church posts regular Writing Prompts on her Horror Prompts Instagram account and I like to take part with a few snippets and pieces of flash fiction.
The Prompt:
Itch
The Submission:
I never should’ve opened that crate! What even was that stuff? Stinking, slimy meat … and those maggots, God! I thought I’d covered myself; I washed my hands for a good ten minutes after touching it.
Now, the itch is almost unbearable! The boils, the lesions … they’ve started to leak a gloopy pus and all the creams have only made them more aggressive. I can’t stop scratching them … maybe I’ll have better luck with the razor …
What did you think to this piece? Did you submit anything for Gillian’s Horror Hullabaloo prompt? Have you ever written any flash fiction before? I’d love to know what you think to my snippets and writing prompts, so feel free to sign up and let me know what you think below or leave a comment on my Instagram page. You can also follow Gillian Church and Horror Prompts to take part in the Horror Hullabaloo challenge.
