Flash Fiction Friday #32

You must excuse my absence this week. It was due to a combination of sickness, overwork, and apathy. I was going to write a post for today but realized it’s time for Flash Fiction Friday and no one would read it anyway.

The rules:

You will write an anecdote, short story, or novel length prose poem beginning with the sentence below.

You will add comments to this post indicating your desire to participate and the completion of your story.

You may join in at any time prior to the deadline.

You will display your story as a post on your own blog.

You will be done by Monday 12:00 Noon CST.

Those are all the rules, if you ask me about the rules or if something is or isn't allowed by the rules, termites will be dispatched to eat your Aunt Martha’s wooden leg.

Here we go: The sound it made when it broke

Have fun.

I miss writing. I am rife with sloth.

I've missed the last few so I'm in and done. (Still haven't had time to go back to the other I started.) A bit over written at the start, but here it is:

I'll try, but I make no promises.

stace_m: why do you bother to do FFF if no one can access it?

Sorry jj, just had to ask and her site doesn't take anything...or display FFF. Isn't that one of your rules?

done... got a little carried away...!

I think this country has gotten way too rule happy. It's none of our truck if Stace wants to keep her writing private.

Let it be.

Knox, I didn't, I just added you to my AIM and thought there was supposed to be some signal you had accepted me as a chat buddy. I'm not really sure how AIM works, I usually use MSN and Yahoo.

Didn't think I'd make this one, but snuck it in under the wire. It's up.

Whew! Made it. Barely.
Done and clueless as to where I was going with this, but...

Okay, so now Aunt Martha's hobbling around. Still would like to read stace_m.

Waiting impatiently for your IM.

FYI: The site linked to my blogger profile is just a group blog; I have to use the profile as this site doesn't allow anonymous comments.

Porchwise, I bother because I enjoy the concept, and it is accessible to some. I'm in the process of setting up a public blog, but if my invisibility is bothersome I won't participate until that's finished. Apologies for the confusion, and the long post.

you're fine, stace_m. Participate however you want.

 
At April 11, 2006 12:54 PM, Blogger justacoolcat said...

I want to participate in this Instant Message orgy.

Sorry, Cat, I don't share my women.
