Bit of a brutal sport, but a certain grace and poetry about it. The old guys had some great stories of their days in the ring and I guess it takes a lot of courage to stand in a ring with a tonne of bull heading towards you and all you have to defend yourself  is a cape! The old guys were pretty impressive, although its good that a lot of the fights don’t kill the bulls these days. Shame for such an impressive animal to go down like that.</p>http://ijfwrite.tumblr.com/post/12777483120http://ijfwrite.tumblr.com/post/12777483120Mon, 14 Nov 2011 11:52:24 +0700flash fictionshort storytorerobullfighting<a href="http://www.helium.com/items/2251603-flash-fiction-silent-steps">Flash Fiction: Silent Steps</a>: <p>I always enjoyed stories where the animal won out in the end!</p>http://ijfwrite.tumblr.com/post/12549993924http://ijfwrite.tumblr.com/post/12549993924Wed, 09 Nov 2011 14:19:23 +0700short storiesflash fictionanimal tales<a href="http://www.helium.com/items/2251600-flash-fiction-sinking-to-the-bottom">Flash Fiction: Sinking to the Bottom</a>: <p>Everone needs friends on the way up and especially on the way down!</p>http://ijfwrite.tumblr.com/post/12549970372http://ijfwrite.tumblr.com/post/12549970372Wed, 09 Nov 2011 14:18:06 +0700flash fictionshort stories
