Flash Fiction

“Pendergast’s Daughter”
After reading the first packet of flash fiction, there was one story that stuck out to me, “Pendergast’s Daughter.”  This story is my favorite because of the imagery that is so vivid and attention grabbing.  It’s not that I like the idea of the story, but the author, Lex Williford, writes the story so it can be imagined while reading.  As soon as the story begins, in medias res, I could see everything that is going on.  And even throughout the whole story, I could picture everything that I was reading.  Even though this story is short, it can still make an impact like a piece of literature can.
