Original flash fiction · Invented characters · The honest caption
On the last page of a borrowed notebook, Eli found a fictional scene described in one sentence: “A saved image has lost its original location information.” It sounded oddly familiar.
The previous owner had left a reply in a different colour: “Keep the location unspecified instead of guessing.” Eli wondered whether advice could wait patiently for the right reader.
The borrowed notebook was returned with an extra line. Advice had become correspondence, though the two writers never met.
