Friday Night Drabble Party!

Ok, folks. It appears the Party consists of myself and Heyes. Not that that is a problem. The guy can write!

So, if you think you can write (I call dibs on that as the next breakout reality show!) then get your wordy words down in the comments section tonight! DO IT!

Enjoy!

Serial Rookie

“When it makes a promise it must keep the promise,” the man outside the cage insisted. “Or if it does not keep the promise then the promise it has been told will happen.”
Carl just stood there, his hands on the iron bars, his eyebrows raised. “I have no idea what you are saying.”
The man outside the cage sighed and then started again, but Carl quickly interrupted him. “No, I heard you. I just have no idea why you are saying that.”
The man outside the cage looked at his notes. “OK, let’s try this. It puts the lotion…”

Cheers!

Friday Night Drabble Party!

Another Friday be here, yes. Another party be in full swing, I say!

This week I will do something different. It has been suggested that I post the Drabble in the body of the post instead of as a separate PDF. So I am going to give that a whirl tonight!

Please let me know if this works better for y’all. I aim to please, ya know.

This does mean that the comments section tonight is for comment on the new format AND so you can add your 100 words worth. You know how I like it when y’all play along. So far there’ve only been a couple of players with the Drabbles, but a small party is still a Party!

Have a read below and if you are inspired to add to the story, take a related tangent, create something new that follows the spirit, what have you, then please do! It is a Party after all.

Enjoy!

We Always Do

By

Jake Bible

Of the Weeping Time we know. Of the Horror of Banford we know. Of the Call to All That Came Before we know.

So I sit upon my chair –the hardbacked one with the spent spring in the seat- and stare at the Fog as it crawls from the harbor, up the street, through the alley, and to my window.

Of the Fog we do not know. But we will learn.

We always do.

And those that remember, those that are left?

We shall write about it; tell tales by firelight; sing sad ballads in the pub.

We always do.

So what did you think of having those words right there in your face? I kinda like it. Let me know.

Cheers!

Well, ya should be, ya crazy varmints!

Enjoy!

A Mist On The Wind

Cheers!

Oh, and get in on the Party! Just like the last few Parties you can join in. Just add your 100 words in the comments section below. Heyes has been rocking it so far the past two weeks. It is a party, you know. The more the merrier!

Disclaimer: Don’t stand downwind of the mist. Yuck.

Friday Night Drabble Party!- Postponed

Hey Folks!

Gonna have to give y’all a raincheck on the Party. Bummer, I know. Unforeseen circumstances have derailed the week and there’s no way to get a drabble up for tonight.

That means you have another week to join in the fun of last week’s drabble! Get your 100 words in and let’s see what chops ya got!

Back next week!

Cheers!

Jake On Jake: Hiatus

Jake: Hiatus? WTF?

Jake: I can’t talk to you right now.

Jake: Why the hell not?

Jake: Taxes.

Jake: Taxes?

Jake: Taxes. And novels. Three novels.

Jake: So you’re busy?

Jake: Exactly

Jake: Then why didn’t you just say so?!

Jake: *shrugs*

Jake: So, no Jake On Jake action for a while?

Jake: Not until I get these novels done and taxes done. And I learn to breathe again.

Jake: Baby.

Jake: Sticks and stones, bitch. Sticks and stones.

Jake Bible will start talking to himself in public in the near future. Just as soon as all the other voices in his head shut the hell up! Oh, and not to worry, the hiatus is just for Jake On Jake. Podcast and Friday Night Drabble Party will be in full swing!
