• And another week is down! Time to bring up the Party!

    Welcome to another fun filled drabble night, ya’ll.

    It looks like we have been having one participant a week in the Drabble Party. Come on, people! Tell your friends! Tell your family! Tell Crazy Charlie down the street (if you can get him to put the nail gun down)! TELL THE WORLD!

    Why? Because it’s fun, yo. It. Is Fun. FUN!

    Last week’s response was great. It kept the narrative going and also added a bit to it. Of course, the spirit of the Lovecraftian mythos is to add to it and make it your own. Gotta love H.P.! Thanks to Heyes for joining in!

    Do you want to join in? Go ahead! Just add your 100 word drabble in the comments section below. It can add to the story, continue right where it left off, go on a tangent, just be “inspired” by, or whatever your muse brings to you. Just make it related to tonight’s drabble somehow. That’s all there is to it!

    And speaking of tonight’s drabble, here ya go.

    Enjoy!

    Plan A

    Cheers!

  • Welcome back to the Party!

    I was glad to see we had a guest join the Party last week. Very nice. If you don’t know what I’m talking about then please go back and read last week’s Drabble and the drabble in the comments.

    So, like I promised, I would talk about the drabbles in the comments. The one drabble fit well with the story in the one I posted. It took up where mine left off and continued the narrative. If I were to criticize, and who the hell am I to do that, I would say that the “punchline” ending may have been a bit much. But that’s just me. After having written hundreds and hundreds of drabbles over the years I have shied away from the punchline. Well, most of the time. We all know a good punchline is hard to resist. But overall an excellent addition!

    Thanks to brighteyeddyer for joining in the Party! You all should get in on this too! have an extra 100 words just hanging out? Throw them up here! But, remember that the 100 words should build on, or expand, or be related in some way to the drabble I post.

    And here that drabble be!

    Enjoy!

  • The first Party of 2013 and it will be a doozy!

    I had mentioned before that starting in 2013 the Party was gonna change a bit. How? Well, it is now an open invite Party! What does that mean? It means you get to bring your own Drabbles to the party!

    How will that work? I’ll still be posting my Drabble each week. have a read and then instead of a subject free for all, go ahead and add your own drabble in the comments section below that either builds on mine or is stays close to it.

    Example: My drabble is about space aliens that find a football on their planet. You can keep going with the story or you can write a drabble about a different set of aliens that find a baseball. Or maybe humans that find some alien sports paraphernalia. Or a lonesome football that was left behind after interstellar settlers abandoned a planet. Get where I’m going with it?

    Excellent!

    Each week I’ll pick the drabble that I think fits best and just grabs me. I’ll talk about it during the following week’s Party. Right now it isn’t a contest, but in the future it could be. I’ll see what prizes I can wrangle up!

    So get to counting those words, folks! Have fun!

    Enjoy!

    Tonight, For Once

    Cheers!

    Disclaimer: There is no right or wrong way to write a drabble. Just wrong word counts.

  • The last Party of 2012!

    Praise Jeebus on that because I am ready for 2012 to be done!

    I’m not saying I didn’t like 2012, just that I didn’t like 2012. Chew on that!

    So, tonight’s Drabble is the last of the year. Next year I’ll still have Drabbles for the Party, but there will be some changes. I’m gonna invite readers to submit their own drabbles too! It truly will be a Drabble Party!

    More on that in the New Year!

    Enjoy!

    It Happens Every Year

    Cheers!

  • If it’s Friday then there be a Drabble Party happenin’ up in here!

    Like last Party, I am going to talk about Little Dead Man some. Actually, I am going to let someone else talk about Little Dead Man! I have been getting great reviews on this novel, and rightly so, I if I do say so myself. Which I do. So I will.

    Have a read here and see what the latest reviewer has to say about Little Dead Man (some SPOILERS) http://girlinthewoodsreviews.blogspot.com/2012/12/review-little-dead-man-by-jake-bible.html

    Now, tonight’s drabble doesn’t have anything to do with Little Dead Man, unless you count the fact that they are both AWESOME! Well, Little Dead Man is awesomer. AND AWESOMER IS A WORD!

    Enjoy!

    No Other Choice

    Cheers!

    Oh, and be ready in January 2013! A new feature will be added to the Friday Night Drabble Party! I think you’ll like it!
