ReRuin

If you like history, this is heritage. If you don’t, this is romance. If you don’t care for either, this is a resort.

ReRuin. Rewriting history.

“This is the perfect ad! Thank you Elber!”

“Glad to be of service. So, when do you open?”

“Next week.”

“Great! You know, I do appreciate what you are doing here. Saving this place from crumbling.”

“Thanks…. It needs to be done, by someone.”

“I agree… I believe that understanding history is so important for understanding the present. That’s why you are getting this ad free.”

“What really?! Thank you so much!”

Word Count: 99


Just as a note. The “i” in ReRuin needs to be stricken out. This editor isn’t allowing me to do that. So, perhaps your imagination could :).


Flash Fiction in response to Friday Fictioneers hosted by the lovely Rochelle Wisoff.

  1. Loved your fun, innovative take on the prompt, Fluid Phrase.
    Preserving History is for the most passionate and the most dedicated , it’s like doing the work as a rewarding experience in itself .
    Amazing ad too. Great work!

  2. I echo the other commenters about the beauty of ad and story. Great wisdom there, too.
    You can use strike in WordPress, but you need to do it in html with strike and /strike as tags.
