Tint

I've been trying to get this piece published for well over a year and it saw it's fair share of rejections.  I really liked this story and I knew I'd eventually find it a home, but it's sometimes disheartening to have to wait that long.

Well, the fine folks as Flashes finally gave 'Tint' a look and it's up on their site today.

I always liked the use of color in writing, it brings scenes to life and, for me personally, makes them more memorable.  So I decided to write a piece that played almost entirely off of that idea.  A lot of feedback I received while drafting the piece was how the readers enjoyed the narration and point of view -- i.e. the voice.  That, combined with the use of color as a vehicle, I think really helped bring this story to life.

See what you think -- Tint
