Steff Does 55 — Fiction, That Is

When I do write fiction, it’s really dark.

I was playing around and decided to try a “55-word Fiction” piece, and this was what I came up with, and thought I’d share:

The hammer came down. Then the plank hit the floor and bounced. Michael went flying through the air. His head cracked open on the corner and his body dropped heavily to the hardwood below.

In the room next door, the sudden silence scared her more than the sickening crack, but then she saw the blood.
