    Worth It
    By
    Jake Bible

    He counted the coins before him for the hundredth time. Possibly the thousandth time. He could no longer remember.

    “Worth it,” he muttered as the stacks of gold began to totter. He straightened them, steadied them, watched until they were stable again. “Worth it all.”

    He kept his eyes focused on the stacks, not on the occupied chairs in the corner of the room. He couldn’t look at those. If he did then maybe it hadn’t really been worth it.

    But it was worth it.

    “Was worth it,” he muttered, ignoring the chairs, ignoring his family’s corpses, ignoring his regret.

    Cheers!

    Disclaimer: It’s always worth it, right?

    Friday Night Drabble Party!

    Bam diggity! The FNDP is back, y’all!

    Had to take a week off because of ConCarolinas. It was a great weekend, but I am glad to be back in the writing chair so I can give y’all some free micro-fiction.

    No schilling this week. Just give a click on any of the categories above if you want some more Jake Bible goodness.

    Enjoy!

    Inevitable Catcall
    By
    Jake Bible

    One woman held the man to the pavement while another reared her foot back for the blow.

    The man tried to protest, but the layers of duct tape that covered his mouth easily prevented that.

    The foot found its target. The duct tape crumpled. The man screamed for thirty seconds then passed out, choking on his own teeth.

    The two women walked off. A block away there was the inevitable catcall.

    “Sounds like someone needs duct tape,” the holder said, grabbing for the roll on her hip.

    “Yeah, it does,” the kicker said, bouncing up and down on her toes.

    Cheers!

    Disclaimer: Duct tape. Say no more.

    Writing In Suburbia #38: The Con Game!

    Phew! What a weekend!

    Yep, I was at ConCarolinas all weekend. Great time. Got to bring the Fam, hang with some friends, meet new authors, make new friends, and make new fans. Want to know what panels I was on? Want to know what we talked about in those panels? Want some great advice on all kinds of subjects? Then have a listen, folks!

    And, this will be quite the surprise, I am too tired to rant this week! This is a rant-free episode!

    Enjoy!

    PS- Yes, I know I’ve used this title before. That’s how tired I am. But this time the title has an exclamation point! THAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT!

    Wake Up
    By
    Jake Bible

    “MONKEYS! RUN!”

    They could not run. Not fast enough, at least. The tiny simian nightmares were everywhere. In the trees, on the roofs, jumping out from behind bushes, driving cars.

    Driving cars?

    “Carl! Wake up!” Stan shouted.

    Carl’s eyes popped open in time for him to swerve the VW bus to the right, avoiding the oncoming traffic he’d drifted into.

    “Whoa,” Carl said. “I had the craziest dream…”

    “MONKEYS! LOOK OUT!” Stan yelled as a wave of the little buggers overtook a Cadillac and swept across the road. “THEY’RE EVERYWHERE!”

    “Huh,” Carl said. “I hope I wake up.”

    He didn’t.

    Cheers!

    Writing In Suburbia #37: The Game Of Life

    And I am back!

    Yeah, I know, it’s been a couple of weeks. Want to know why? Well, I guess you’ll have to listen to the podcast, won’t ya? This week I talk about how life and writing are not separate (which is kind of the point of this podcast) and how writing sometimes has to take a backseat because, well, life.

    Enjoy!
