Thank you for sharing your whimsical presentation of a moment lost in time. You take us to a place where we have all been before. that place where we ask ourselves the question; is it or isn't it? Am I or am I not? then you remove all question and deliver us safely to our bed of comfort. This is for real.

This is an interesting flash fiction contest entry. I like the surreal implications. Is he dreaming? Is he awake? Did you ever watch the movie "Inception." I left the Cinema not knowing whether I was awake or asleep and dreaming my life. Well done.PM

Hello Raul,
I'm not sure if this is a dream and he finally wakes up
of if he has entered some sort of time warp.
I think you need to be a bit clearer in the story,
even if it is the Twilight Zone.
Good luck in the contest
RS

Raul, (4)

Yikes! This could definitely be a Twilight Zone scenario! And one I would not want to visit, for sure. haha The absence of time or space or color or anything else would be absolutely horrifying, imo.

I realize 80 words is nowhere near enough to try to draw a complete picture of this situation, but you've presented an intriguing premise. It might be intriguing to really draw this out and play with it a bit more in a longer setting AFTER the contest.

I do have some notes for you, if you're interested?

***

1.) Please note that you are switching from present to past tense in the first sentence:
--> There WAS (past) nothing but blank white when Harry IS WALKING(present) walking.

2.) It is as if he is the only one that exists.
--> when speaking of a human, use 'who' rather than 'that'
-->It is as if he is the only one (who) exists.

3.) He is waking up from his bed and sees his parents.
--> Just a matter of preference, maybe, but I would suggest saying, he was waking up from his 'dream' rather than his bed.

4.) He's happy that his family and the existence of time is living.
--> this line is a bit garbled to me. It may need some editing for better clarity?

Thanks so much and good luck!

This is a very interesting offering, but I did have a little trouble following with the changes in your verb tenses. I have to say, though, that I really liked the way you ended your Flash with "Finally, no blanks." Cool! :) Thanx for sharing and best of luck in the contest! ;)
