Mini Saga #4 – The Accident

The Accident

Luckily, the accident wasn’t fatal. He recovered quickly. What puzzled him though – were the events that led to the accident. He remembered vividly that he had looked over his shoulders every time he changed lanes. What he forgot was that he was in the “blind spot” of someone else.

Note:

1. A mini saga is a story told in exactly 50 words. Not 49 or 51 but exactly 50.

2. You can download a photographic manifesto of Mini Sagas at ChangeThis. Here is the link – Mini Sagas: Bite-sized Wisdom for Life and Business (PDF, 2.9MB).

3. For a complete list of Mini Sagas, please visit the Squidoo lens “Mini Sagas”

Rajesh, are you familiar with http://the-phone-book.com/ ? It is an online publication based in the UK that publishes micro fiction for cell phones.

There’s some marvelous work there that you might enjoy reading, based on your interest in mini sagas, and you may want to consider submitting your work there, too. (Several years back they published one of my short fiction pieces – http://the-phone-book.com/version10/storypages.php?ID=4397.)

I rarely comment here but I am a regular reader and greatly enjoy your blog.

Hi Rajesh,

Here is another mini-saga.

It was getting dark. She walked faster. The street is not safe. Two men were behind her. They were walking casually. Scared, she prayed to God & turned back to see them disappearing into a lane. Now she was alone on the road. And being all alone was even more scary.
