So, this week, I wanted to try something different. So, I am submitting a small story to Flash Fiction for Aspiring Writers. Hopefully, you all when enjoy it, and I’ll get to read some other wonderful things associated with the fantastic picture shared by Yinglan. So, here goes. The link to this excellent site is below.

Keep on pushin’
Visionary Trailblazin’

I was still so excited to finally find my thing. As I stood among a line of other, average, maybe even invisibly ordinary individuals, I knew I belonged here. I could feel it. The sky seemed to cooperate with us, for now. However, it continued to threaten us with an inevitable downpour. When the skeet ball flew, nothing else mattered. The line beside me blurred, and the background became invisible. The air around me, my focus, even the settling of the rifle, complimented my sharp focus. I zeroed in until there nothing was left; only my front site and the flying ball of clay. (107 words).
It sounds like your character found her niche.

She’s found her niche – I’m not sure if it will lead to good things or terrible things in the future!

I always hope for the best. I guess it depends on the type story. If it turns into sci fi it might get interesting, but if it’s realistic fiction it could be terrible.

I love that your character found where they belonged. It’s so hard to find something that truly speaks to you, and they definitely felt at home here!

Thanks. I agree. Whatever our “thing” is when we find it, it can be life changing.

You certainly love shooting. Yes intense concentration is essential to shoot well at a flying object.

Thanks for reading. Shooting really isn’t my niche. I think I looked at the picture and developed an idea of a character from there. It was the first thing that came to mind.

My comment was in response to your post. It is understood that whosoever is the protagonist in a story many not represent the author.
