A discussion on structure vs flow regarding creative writing. A last minute writing exercise submission by Chewy and an audio submission by Strumpet. This book club vote result and the new writing assignment.

@chewyfruitloop:
The world zips by so quickly at 70. Right at this moment though, slow motion was in effect. The nudge hardly registered until it was to late. Spinning about and clipping the barrier set into motion the events that where beyond all human control.
The air was beckoning and into the blue he flew.
Inverted is not the normal view of the road. The engine revved wildly as the friction was reduced to nothing.
It seemed an age until the thud of the landing. That didn't seem to matter much to physics, why have one landing when you can do it all again. Rolling wildly like a ravenous crocodile wrestling some poor beast to its fate he bounce. Crushing, bruising, hammering his body.
Steel will succumb. Now like wet paper the body came apart. The cage that had been his shelter was now his enemy. Lacerating, rending, flesh is no match.
The cars halting was a blessing and a curse. Neither of them would be injured any further, but now he could feel the union of them both. Warm and wet. Blood and oil mingled in the road. The horseless carriage was beyond help, he wondered if he was to.
