END AND BEGINNING: FLASH FICTION BY ELLIOT HARPER

End and Beginning

“Always begin at the end of the beginning. Never at the beginning of the end.” Strange advice from a man who lives outside of time. Or maybe it makes perfect sense coming from him. I don’t know. His words stuck with me throughout my life. I tried to do just that. It only occurs to me now here on my death bed that it was a joke.

Elliot Harper is an Englishman living in Houston, Texas. Author of the upcoming novella “The City around the World” to be released by Sinister Stoat Press (imprint of Weasel press.) A bloke with a ginger beard who writes speculative and weird fiction. Find him on Twitter @e_harper_author and at his website elliotharper.com.
