Frigid
Head on over to Every Day Fiction and check out my flash piece, “Frigid.” It was the story of the day on August 21st, so I’m a little late in posting the link here. There were some technical difficulties with the original release, though, which caused missing text. Now, however, thanks to Camille at EDF, the story has been reposted in full.
This story is set in my superhero universe — the same universe as my stories in A Thousand Faces (”Zero to Clean in Ten Minutes or Less,” “Bridge Club,” and “Dinner for Three,” which is forthcoming).
The story was inspired by a prompt from my writing group’s monthly contest. The prompt was to write about ice with the bonus challenge of writing about it in an unusual way. I wanted to make ice my main character.
If you enjoy the story, EDF allows you to comment and vote on it. You can also comment here. I’d love to know what you think.

Hi Erin! Loved your new EDF piece.
Also wanted to let you know that your “Bridge Club” started my admiration for A Thousand Faces - so, I decided I needed to write a super-hero story. Luckily it was accepted by A Thousand Faces or I wouldn’t have known what to do with it! It’s in this quarter’s issue.
Thanks again for the inspiration!

The changes make a big difference, Erin. Good story.
Jason — Wow, thanks for the compliment. I really had fun writing “Bridge Club.” Superhero fiction is fun! I look forward to reading your story in ATF.
K.C. — Thanks! I’m glad Camille and Co. were able to fix it. With every other paragraph just gone, it left a lot to be desired!
