    About this ebook

    Accidents happen. They overcome you by coincidence and sometimes with unexpected consequences; or fatal injuries. The deadly victims, Roadkill, are fine meat. Never bother how it got killed or how it got there upon the road. Just remember Roadkill attracts other guests. Or unexpected scavengers...

    Eduard Meinema

    "I love writing into the dark; like to be surprised by the characters scavenging through my own stories. Just before things are getting familiar; when I think, or at least believe, to know where a new story is going to, I give it a twist and make my readers (and myself) wonder... how the hell is this going to end?"WORDS and VISIONEduard Meinema is writer and visual artist. He writes in an exciting and humorous style. Creates intense, passionate and mysterious stories filled with unexpected twists which will seduce anyone to finish reading at full speed. Beside his full length novels, Eduard is fond of writing Flash Fiction and Short Stories. All of these 'Twisted Tales' are published as stand alone eBooks in the series 'Flash & Shorts'.Meinema's works of art include so called 'lyric abstract' paintings. Expressionistic works made of Acrylics and Sand. But also Pop-art, including characters known as 'Skredches' (Yes! There is a blog:check out the official site to find blog feeds!!) and...fish paintings. As Meinema says: "Ah! I love fish. Love to see them. Love to keep them. Breed them, paint them, eat them... (ouch, sorry for that...). Oh yeah, I love fish in each and every way."Meinema, born 1963 (Delft, The Netherlands) is former CEO of a temp office, specialized in contracting technicians. Together with his wife he has managed a gallery for contemporary art and jewelry for more than ten years. Nowadays Meinema is fulltime writer and visual artist.

      FLASH AND SHORTS # 417013101 – Roadkill

      How much longer will it take? Jerney yawned. She was exhausted. Three o’clock in the morning. Night actually. She stared into the total darkness around them. They had not seen a sign of life for a long time and the only lights around, were the headlights of their own car. She checked her Smartphone; the screen lit up bluish and ghostly illuminated her gorgeous face. We’ve been driving for more than twelve hours. Do you think we will ever see a restaurant?

      A gas station would be nice too, said Gordon looking desperate at the dashboard.

      Jerney sat up straight. Why? Are we running out of gas? she asked worried.

      Not yet.

      When was the last sign? she asked her boy friend. I don’t want to get stuck here. In the middle of nowhere… In the middle of the night.

      Yeah, imagine that. Scary shit, isn’t it?

      She slapped him on his knee. Don’t Gor! If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be here.

      He sighed. Here we go again, he thought.

      So? When was the last sign?

      Well, it’s been a while. But I guess it will only take a few more miles.

      A few more miles? You think…, Jerney sighed. She stared at the horizon, hoping to discover some neon signs of a gas station, luring at the horizon. How much further can we go?

      Gordon didn’t answer. He opened a window to let some fresh air into the car.

      And close that window will you. It’s cold outside.

      Just trying to stay awake here babe.

      "Ooohh, I
