I will be writing a blog entry about this one tomorrow, but for now, you can catch my flash, "Shattered Moon, Hungry Sea", on @flametreepress' Myth & Fiction podcast!
It's one of my favourites.

It is not unusual to see things in the tower. Whether they're real or not depends entirely on the tower's whim. We've learnt not to question it. We're reading flash fiction instead.

The tower has its own gravity this evening, and it is malfunctioning. Luckily, today's poem is working exactly as intended.

The tower has, once again, decided that doors are optional so we are stuck inside for the foreseeable future. Luckily, we have an excellent short story to keep us company:

All is dark in the tower this evening. We can't be sure when the lights went out. We can only wait for them to reignite themselves. While we we wait, we're reading about other dark places...

The tower has decided to exist underwater. We are supportive of all of the tower's decisions, even if they necessitate the growing of gills. We're reading poetry while we evolve. Specifically, this poem:

Something is stirring in the woodland outside the tower. We keep hearing strange warbling, and it is getting closer. Read today's short story with us while we try not to think about what approaches.

There are shadows on the wall inside the tower. They're trying to tell us something, pointing at doorways. We're too afraid to follow. Instead, we're reading today's flash fiction:

If you're very quiet & if you stay very still, the tower might talk to you. We can't repeat what it whispers, that's reserved for the listener, but we invite you to try for yourselves. Maybe, it'll whisper this story:

The tower is circled by trees. The circle is impenetrable. We're unsure when the trees will let us leave, but luckily, we have excellent poetry to read in the meantime.

All of the taps in the tower are running with tea today. We're not complaining though. The kettle is having a well-earned day off. While we drink tea-on-tap, we're reading flash fiction:
