RE: He who walks these streets (Short Story)
Yeah, I suspected the man was the killer immediately. His dark view of the environment around him betrays a very dark mind. Nice writing... @miniature-tiger's fiftywords challenge definitely makes one creative, don't you think?
Thank you! Lol - this is very standard for my descriptions, for me there is a beauty in the dark that often goes unseen. Especially in the fog. I was definitely thinking more of the killer with the full short story, I tried to be as vague as I could, but when I actually wrote it, it tipped it to be more killer than cop. The 50w version was more either way but as soon as I let it grow a bit, it began to take more form.
Yeah I LOVE the fifty word challenge now, I started out so uncertain, but now it is one I am constantly looking for the next one with, they are just so inspirational, without the challenge, I never would have thought how trying to frame a story within 50 words forces you to fully form a story or idea in your head. I normally just start writing and then however long later, have a story or poem, where as this is training me to think a lot more about it.
