How to Write an Autobiographical Flash-trio

How to Write an Autobiographical Flash-trio
Directions:
1. Begin with a quote to act as prompt for ideas, such as:
A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it. -George Moore

2. From the quote, settle on a guiding idea, (literal or figurative), for the title of your flash-trio, such as: Travel, Home, My Life, Where We Live

3. Choose three nouns as subtitles for the flash trio, such as: House, Tree, Body

4. Write each flash, beginning to end, without editing. Write in an active voice, using strong verbs and images, and remember that flash fiction is only about 100-1000 words, so there isn't time for long description or rhetorical excursions.

This is my flash trio which I sent for my holiday cards a few years back:

Where We Live
Danna

House
The house sits far back from the infidel road, named for the two gentile families that settled along it over one-hundred years ago. A wide expanse of lawn is punctuated with Oak, Pine, Linden, and host to birds of every variety: owl, dove, crow, hummingbird, and the occasional wandering peacock, particular favorites. Behind the calculus of rooms and lives sheltering within them, a wheat field covered in the snow’s scurf is flanked by a country lane lined on either side by Willow, Pine, Maple, and Honey Locust, each planted for the farmer’s seven children. The middle daughter’s tree is a tangle of branches armed with sharp, flat thorns.

Tree
The tree, a Mountain Ash, is rooted in the memorial park next to railroad tracks and was planted the year Albert Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect. Come spring, waxwings will swarm the tree and feast on its berries until they are too drunk to fly and will fall to the ground, giddy and sated.

Body
The body is a glimmering on the horizon, a destination imagined in the soft hue of morning light. Composed of organic and trace elements, proteins, lipids, salts and sugars, its dual snake helixes around a mysterious code, dipping in and out of memory. Its soul is a restless traveler.
