Normally, I love the stories that come out of the flashfic challenges. I'm not sure what happened. It seems this is a bad time for this challenge. Everyone is so dissatisfied and disgusted that most of the authors I read reguallary aren't writing. That being said, there have been a few gems. Shushu's story, and this one stand out. This was very good, in a kind of awful way, if that makes any sense. The endless corpses... I, of course, had just finished a story about post-nuclear war America so was in a dark mood to start with. Very nice.
