Busy gal - Flash Fiction for Trifecta

Passing by, I see this young woman searching through books thicker than a D-cup. She has a half-empty slushie that looks to have melted by this scorching heat. I wonder what's so important.


For this week's Trifecta.

Lose some, win some - Flash Fiction

After the boxing match, Jennifer stood beside her husband's dressing room.

When she opened the door, she saw him lying on the bench.

“Don't worry, honey. You don't get to win every time.”

“But I just did,” he said as he heard a kick from inside his wife's belly.

Illusions - for Flash Friday

I'm sitting here, in the middle of the town square, looking at the statue of some guy who lived centuries ago.

I have no idea who he is, what he did, or why he is put there in the first place. But he must've been some big shot to be featured in the most important area of this town.

Judging by that scepter and the way it's thrust in the ground, I'd say he was a tyrant. One who wasn't loved by people, but they were too afraid to do anything about it.

Then came the politicians and every other wise guy with a big belly who languished in his fame and fortune.

Until it was time to go. In the dungeon. In the tomb. In the waters. Simply go and make room for another spineless guy.

What a destiny.

Wish I could have his power for an hour.

For this week's Flash Friday.

Haiku of the Dead Anthology

If you like Haiku, and you like zombies, what better way to enjoy them than through an anthology that combines both?

Then purchase it from Amazon or Createspace.

A bit of fun? - for Flash Friday

     “Jenny, you can take your blindfold off.”

“What’s this? A roller coaster? I told you I didn’t like them.”

“Yeah, but look. You can walk on this one. There’s nothing to fear.”

“Sure? If something happens, I’ll put you in the hospital.”

“Haha. Okay, okay. Just make sure you a judo maneuver, not a taekwondo kick. That way I won’t get to spend a month behind white tiles.”

“Two months.”

“Why is my gut trembling?”

“Maybe it sensed something from me.”

“I haven’t even set foot on the platform and already I’m getting dizzy.”

“And I feel great… Hey, is that a tiger over there?”

“Where? …I don’t see a thing in the woods.”

“I’m pretty sure I saw one springing from tree to tree.”

“A ninja tiger? You saw too many anime.”

“I’m serious. Look. There it went again.”

“It’s coming this way. Holy sh…”

I knew - for Trifecta

The first time I saw your cheeks get red from my pale lips, I knew.
Two days later, you said 'Yes' and I knew.
Nine months later, I heard a scream. I knew.

For this weeks Trifextra.

Not such a pleasant drive - for Flash Friday

Good day to be driving around the countryside, eh, James?
Just look at this prosperous forest. Branches on the dirt road, grass all burned, the red river full of dead fish. Wait, I actually think I see some human limbs. Delightful. Now we’re headed into what seems like an elephant-sized tree trunk whose head was chopped off, and its knickers area shrilled to pieces. Like some sort of a magic gate, eh, James? This is unreal to you too? I knew it.
Argh. Pesky hole in the ground. Almost stuck the wheel in. Good thing it’s wooden and gets out faster.
What’s this? People in armor covered in silver tunics? Swords? And they’re saying something I don’t understand. Do you, James? No. Of course you don’t.

Whoa. The chap in front has a vertical bow of sorts. And he’s aiming… Straight at my neck. Looks like it’s over James, old doll.
