Description:
#Audio. #Flashfic. A lipogram (a story where you eliminate a specific letter) about surfing. This story doesn’t use the letter ‘T.’
Excerpt:
Endless waves command her focus, her balance, her prowess, her finesse.
Her braided hair flows behind her as she flies over boundless blue and pale foam.
Her body hums ocean music, and her deep blue sea responds in kind.
